Introduction

Bluetooth Low Energy

The Traditional Bluetooth had given us ability and also quickly connect to peripheral devices but Bluetooth Low Energy with the release the type of peripheral devices that connect have spilled over to medical and sports fields in remarkable ways. Then, we are use the smart phone and also tablet devices to connect the internet, stream audio on the car and also even in home entertainment systems. Extend the number of peripheral devices that connect will need for more efficient ways of doing so.

Bluetooth Low Energy implement entirely new protocol stack along with new profiles and applications. Its core objective is to run for a very long time on a coin-cell battery. It also enables devices to connect to the internet where traditionally they have not been able to in an efficient way through its client or server architecture. Bluetooth Low Energy is designed to be easy to develop for at a cheap price.

Bluetooth Low Energy wireless technology is an open low energy, short range radio technology. It is a connectionless an always off technology. Bluetooth Low Energy is a new technology. Its designed from a clean sheet of paper with some constraints and goals.

The technology’s application: where, how it works and who is using it.

Where

• Any system that can connect to Bluetooth Low Energy devices and to a wide area network area network can serve as gateways.

- Your home PC can see devices around your home

- Your smart phone can see all the devices around you

How It works

• Bluetooth Low Energy had provide the technology to connect things have data and web services want this data.

• The simplicity of GATT servers makes it easy to represent those devices over the web.

• Bluetooth Low En...

...e to start thinking on what other ways I could potentially use this for. I feel better prepared to create a tablet/smart phone app that takes advantage of the Bluetooth Low Energy application profiles now that I know how they work. Lastly, I did thorough investigation on the existing tools and techniques used to sniff Bluetooth traffic. I understand the differences in the tools and what each of those tools does to exploit the Bluetooth protocol. Now, my understanding of those exploits goes beyond simply running the tool, I know what is happening on the backend to make it all happen.
