Bluetooth Smart starter kit launched
The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) has introduced a free Bluetooth Smart starter kit, designed to help developers speed the time it takes to get their prototypes into production.
Compatible with Android, iOS and Windows, the Smart Starter Kit is designed to work with an Arduino board and includes hands-on labs and sample code to get developers up and running.
"There are more than 3billion smartphones on the market right now, all with different operating systems, architecture and specs. But the one thing they almost all have in common is Bluetooth," said Suke Jawanda, chief marketing officer, Bluetooth SIG. "If you want your product to connect to these devices, not to mention future ones, you need to build with Bluetooth Smart.
"Our Smart Starter Kit takes the guesswork out of adding connectivity to a device, cuts time to market for developers and brings wireless convenience to consumers faster than ever before."
