![]() POINTS IN MY CURRENT TREND RESULTING FROM THE DISCUSSION BELOW So, I modified the title of this thread to reflect that widening of my scope on this. There are also our iOS devices (if any are or could be stationary), our Windows, Mac & Linux computers, etc.īasically, I want to find out if there are ways of using ANY of these otherwise-stationary devices that have Bluetooth radios as Bluetooth Beacons. So, if there is some kind of app that already brings this capability to Android, or if anybody knows a way of doing something like this with Tasker/SharpTools/WhateverElse, please let me know.ĮDIT: I just realized that my ‘farm’ of available Bluetooth devices is much wider than just the Androids that I have mounted on the walls. Now I just need to figure out how to get the wall-mounted Androids to start sending out Bluetooth ‘beacon signals’ so that I can use them for micro-presence. I already know how to get the generated info from my pocket-phone into SmartThings when the time comes. Since I already have a few (and will add more over time) Android devices mounted on walls around the house to run SmartTiles, LANnouncer, and other things, I figure I might as well take advantage of the fact that they have Bluetooth radios too, and start building my micro-presence bluetooth ‘mesh’ (I know, not really the best term, but that’s not my area lol ) with what I already have on-hand. I get that, but I want the Android to be the Beacon itself so that I can use them in my future micro-presence strategy. I’m not wondering about using the Android device as a ‘Receiving Station’ of Beacon reports from iBeacons. Now, I’m wondering if it would be possible to use Android devices with Bluetooth radios (phones, tablets, TVs, etc) as Bluetooth ‘Beacons’. Learn more about the features of the RadBeacon E Series by visiting the Radius Networks website today: know about and (thanks to ( here) think I understand the concept of iBeacons. Non-replaceable lithium battery – up to 9 month battery life Ideal for short-term applications (asset tracking, facility access, etc.) Portable, lightweight, small in size, and easy to deploy Non-replaceable lithium battery – up to 2 year battery life Great general purpose beacon in a small form factor that can be installed virtually anywhereĤ AA batteries (included) – up to 10 year battery lifeĨ D batteries (included) – Decades of battery lifeĭesigned for use on-the-go with a built-in key chain hole Rugged, weatherproof, and temperature-resistant The RedBeacon E is available in four form factors: E4, E8, Card, and Chip. Supported beacon proximity technologies include: Configure it the way you want it using your mobile device with the free RadBeacon App for iOS or Android. As the industry’s first multi-beacon, with concurrent support for all major industry-standard proximity technologies, the RadBeacon enables simultaneous proximity services across iOS, Android, and other emerging mobile environments. The RadBeacon E has 5 configurable beacon advertisements, so you can pick the identifiers you want for your project. The RadBeacon E is perfect for a wide range of applications such as mobile app engagement, asset tracking, location-based advertising, and more.įully Configurable Multi-Beacon Technologyĭon’t get stuck with IDs from your beacon vendor that might overlap with other deployments. The RadBeacon E Series is a family of fully stand-alone Bluetooth proximity beacons that supports iBeaconTM, AltBeaconTM, and EddystoneTM technology. This micro-location proximity awareness can be leveraged to deliver a wide range of new innovative solutions, such as right-place, right-time customer notifications, precision indoor navigation, automatic ticketing, guided tours, and location-relevant offers and promotions. The short range, low power, Bluetooth Smart transmitters notify mobile devices when they come within range of a beacon. Radius Networks is the leading proximity beacon provider.
