The Libelium’s Waspmote Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) module connects Waspmote sensor nodes to smartphones, tablets, and all other BLE-compatible iOS and Android devices. The BLE or Bluetooth 4.0 wireless protocol offers low-energy power management for short-range wireless connectivity that is location-aware and context-aware. For security, the module allows sensor devices to function as real time location systems with encrypted data transactions.
In addition to the Bluetooth Low Energy module, the company’s Waspmote interfaces with six radio protocols (Wi-Fi, ZigBee, 802.15.4, NFC, 3G and GPRS) and allows switching between any two of these technologies as needed.
