Firmware supporting eddystone and ibeacon simultaneously for nrf52832

Hi all,

i'm new to BLE in general, I found this chip (nrf52832), which suits my uni project.

However, I don't have much knowledge about this technology. therefore, im looking for a firmware the supports eddystone and ibeacon at the same time.

if there isn't such ready firmware, what is the easiest way to get both Iphone and android devices to work with this chip.

Thanks in advance A

  • Programming your own firmware which alters Advertising and Scan Response data (or even MAC address if needed) is very easy on both nRF51 and 52 with any of S13x Nordic BLE stacks. However if you don't consider being skilled enough you can start from nRF5 SDk beacon example and use e.g. this patch which does exactly what you need (alters data after each interval). Still iBeacon and Eddystone (or whatever else) data structure must be filled by you (and then recompile, flash, test... standard development cycle;)

    Good luck!
