Bluetooth Low Energy software

Just like hardware, the development of Bluetooth Low Energy heavily relies on the software stack. Many software tools are available online for the development, testing and debugging of the BLE devices. Since Bluetooth Low Energy is heavily in correlation of the cellular phones, almost every major platform has its share in Bluetooth Low Energy software stack. PC industry is also very crucial in Bluetooth Low Energy software stack. In this section, we will emphasize more on the software/applications available on Microsoft Windows, Android and iOS.

Bluetooth Developer Studio by Special Interest Group

At this point of the book, we will talk about the software tools available for the development of Bluetooth Low Energy Applications. Special Interest Group (SIG) is the group responsible for maintaining and developing the new versions of Bluetooth. Their work also defines the future of the technology. That is why when SIG decided to reinvent the Bluetooth and move to...
