    Just for fun could a Quik/Nordic hearable mesh?

    Yes , in theory it seems it could...


    selected Nordic’s award-winning nRF51822 Bluetooth® Low Energy (Bluetooth LE) SoC 


    Nordic offers a complete solution for the Bluetooth mesh specification with the nRF5 SDK for Mesh and the nRF51 and nRF52 Series SoCs. It provides a powerful solution for product developers to take advantage of the new capabilities introduced by Bluetooth mesh. The nRF5 SDK for Mesh is intended to be used as a foundation for any Bluetooth mesh product development


    why not? :). So this was a mental exercise of the Adjacent Possible. From the room we have entered to the next one...
