BLE beacons' cheap cost and power consumption allow for a large number of devices to be placed throughout a service area, as well as integration with other devices such as Wi-Fi access points. The basic yet flexible structure of BLE advertisement packets allows beacons to be customised for a wide range of applications, from retail shop information to indoor navigation and asset monitoring. With the growing proliferation of wireless devices and services, the use of BLE beacons is quickly evolving and discovering new applications on a daily basis. As the Internet of Things (IoT) gained traction, the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) saw the need for a modified Bluetooth standard that focused on power conservation and could be readily adopted into a wide range of products. Bluetooth Low Energy is the product of development objectives. BLE wireless communication, which is related to normal Bluetooth but also an incompatible, independent technology, consumes so little energy that it allows battery-powered devices to function for months or even years. BLE devices are designed to provide brief bursts of data rather than continuously stream data, making them excellent for control and sensor applications.

With BLE capability built into the majority of today's devices, the possible uses for BLE beacons are limitless. BLE beacons can be small and inexpensive, or integrated into other devices such as Wi-Fi access points and can range from basic phone app alerts to more comprehensive position monitoring. With an interior range of up to 50 metres, but typically only a few metres, BLE beacons can function better in places where GPS signals cannot always penetrate. Consider a basic situation in which BLE beacons are installed in a museum. A visitor enters the museum and is greeted by a beacon message that directs them to the best way to see all of the exhibits. Another beacon, a short way within the museum, gives information on the museum's free Wi-Fi and sends visitors to the first display. Information about the exhibit is offered as the visitor approaches it at the museum. The visitor continues to follow beacon directions around the museum until all of the exhibits have been visited. A beacon message at the conclusion of the walk encourages stopping at the museum visitor's store. When the visitor exits the museum, a beacon message thanks them and informs them of an upcoming special exhibition.

The usage of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) beacons is not new; nevertheless, as other wireless technologies have expanded and improved over the years to enter practically every aspect of life, the use of these basic devices has begun to increase. Because of the inexpensive cost and low power consumption of BLE beacons, which may function for years on batteries, multiple beacons can be planted across indoor or outdoor spaces, offering aid to users who can detect and interpret the beacon messages using smartphone apps. The structure of BLE beacon advertisement packets enables broad customisation, allowing operators to design new applications. BLE beacons, as a complimentary technology to Wi-Fi and cellular wireless, cover a niche with numerous prospects for present and future growth.

The global BLE Beacons market accounted for a valuation of USD 1,091.1 million in 2021, and it is projected to reach USD 7,448.3 million in 2030 at a 26.8% CAGR.
