Using Bluetooth BLE for downloading orientation data

PeterO

Are there libraries and/or examples for using Bluetooth BLE within the Processing Android mode? I did find a library in GitHub: "Bluetooth Low Energy for Processing Android" I couldn't see it in the Processing library list and before learning how to import and use it wondered if anyone else has tried it.

Thanks Peter

@PeterO: Have you tried this library? https://github.com/joshuajnoble/blepdroid

I tried it and ran into a problem. Reported here: https://github.com/joshuajnoble/blepdroid/issues/3

Perhaps other forum members can help us figure out how to make it work.

I think Joshua has now simplified this after you and Ed Dude discussed it with him so that theres no need to compile BlepDroid just take the unzipped blepdroid-master folder change the name to blepdroid (ie remove-master) paste it into the Libraries folder of Processing and then its ready to use. Took 30s and there it was. I'd say the question is now answered.

Many thanks to you all for discussing this and trying things out until it was sorted.

Cheers, Peter
