ibeacon scanner

We need to make ODIN w262 board to a ibeacon scanner. But there are example code about making ibeacon, not beacon scanner. Can you help us about making ODIN w262 board to ibeacon scanner?

Question relating to:

The Arm Mbed engineering support team page for Seoul IoT Hackathon (http://www.seoulhackathon.org/).

I don't have ibeacon scanner, but I had HP printer. Which has worked very good in starting but after sometime I was facing cartridge issue on it. But I have solved this issue through HP by contacting at: http://hpprintersupportnumbers.co.uk/blog/fix-hp-printer-server-connection-error-403/

ODIN board does not support the Mbed OS BLE API at the moment, so Austin's examples don't work unfortunately.

Scanning BLE devices for ODIN is implement in the following header file: cb_bt_man.h. Unfortunately I cannot find an example app online, but it's probably in the ODIN-W2 SDK.

Here is an example program that scans for nearby advertisements. iBeacon is just a special form of a BLE advertisement

Example code: https://os.mbed.com/teams/Bluetooth-Low-Energy/code/BLE_TemperatureObserver/file/16f67d5752e1/main.cpp Details on ibeacon specification : https://os.mbed.com/blog/entry/BLE-Beacons-URIBeacon-AltBeacons-iBeacon/

Ibeacon scanner is one of the best scanners. To know more about this visit <a href="https://printerchatsupport.co.uk/hp-printer-support/">Hp printer support</a>
