26. Device Discovery Hello, I’m w710eeb8- a2c63-lf01-l99e- e1b4ak0

27. Device Discovery Hello, I’m w710eeb8- a2c63-lf01-l99e- e1b4ak0 I was looking

    for you!

28. Bluetooth LE on iOS CBCentralManager write CBPeripheral read

29. iOS Send some data to Arduino CBPeripheral *peripheral; UInt8 buffer[2]

    = {0x01, 0x00}; buffer[1] = 150; [peripheral writeValue:data ...];

30. Arduino while (ble_available()) { byte data0 = ble_read(); byte data1

    = ble_read(); if (data0 == 0x01) { analogWrite(MOTOR_FWD, data1); } } Read incoming data

31. Apple & Bluetooth LE 1 2 3 Macs since 2011

    iPhones since 2011 iOS & OSX integration 4 Location services in iOS7

32. iBeacons 1 2 3 Built on Bluetooth LE Reliable proximity

    info Background mode 4 iOS7 & Mavericks
