Qorvo DWM3001CDK NI example/Help

Wireless Connectivity Ultra-Wideband

I am trying to get the NearBy Interaction working. I have both an IOS and Android phone and I have not been success to have either even discover correctly

I am using 3.2.1 SDK and I am using zephyr in VS Code

Is there an example anywhere Maybe? Is there anywhere that just defines the ADV Services and Characteristics that the NI Apps expect?

I have already got the dev board up working reading the Accelerometer, Setting up UWB and setting up BLE I have Service and Characteristics and ADV set up. I have tried my best to set it up the way I have found is supposed to but so far nothing has working.

  1. First of all, the news from end of 2025:
    Nearby interaction was allocated by Apple to a specific, dedicated domain developers.apple.con/nearby-interaction.

Maybe you can find information there.

  1. On Qorvo web-site search for dwm3001 and find a package QNI-*** This is Qorvo Nearby Interaction example, has both embedded code as well the iOS application.

Hope this may help you.

as @alliv mentions the Nearby is an Apple only capability. Android does it differently.

Qorvo has provided Sample code for both the device (accessory in Apple terms) and an app, in the QANI sdk and the DW3_QM33_SDK_1.1.1

Qorvo doesn’t document what Apple needs. It works.
I have an App that does ranging with the 3001CDK using QANI

Estimote provides a different set of libs, and also a sample Android app.
I have tested there and it works too..

also, Qorvo firmware for UWB is still using the FreeRTOS runtime, on the old 17.x Nordic SDK. not the new Zephyr Nordic SDK..
