@ andre.m was one of the trend setters who made the pilgrimage to the first (and maybe only) Stevenage workshop a few months ago. As part of that day Andre built his own STM powered Smart node with BLE capabilities.
Since heading home Andre has been madly tapping away at the keyboard in between sipping latte’s and has sent me a project that he has been working on.
Andre has created both a WP8.1 app and a Win8.1 app that talks via BLE to the Smart node enabling it to both read and write to all the available ports and also send user defined text as well.
Andre has written the apps so that the BLE connection data is saved on the device and the last saved connection is automatically used to connect if no current connection exists.
I would like to publicly thank Andre for taking the time to write these excellent demo apps which i think showcase some of the new abilities that BLE opens up to NETMF very well.
The video is a bit grainy and not exactly a visual masterpiece - but hey… Peter Jackson i am not :
@ Gary - will will need written permission in triplicate from the PM and a protection detail to guard me from the waiting angry MS mob if you jumped the queue…
Gary Beaver from GHI fame has taken it upon himself to try and jump the queue for the first shipment of IoT Dx Blue samples…
Upon request i will gladly send you Gary’s contact details should you like to have a frank discussion with Gary about the ethics of queue jumping and general Beta testing etiquette.
I vouch for the southern hemisphere bit. Although I originate from the north, I am now located in the south (only just by 6 degrees) so I think this is a valid point. :whistle:
