Multiple services (Link with PC as USB device & Link PC nRF connect as HR detection & Link with phone as beacon)

[CY]

Here is a thing that I want to develop.

As my understanding, if I want to connect with PC I must use the HID example to achieve the event.

However, is it possible that I can keep the possibility to connect with PC as mouse and run the beacon or other BT function (heart rate detection) on PC (developed APP) at the same time? 

Moreover, is that possible I can keep the mouse and beacon capability in the same hardware?

In detail, I would like to try to use the mouse when I was connecting with PC, after the disconnecting I can link with my mobile as beacon.

Briefly, I would like to integrated HID, HRD, Beacon into the same hardware at the same time? Is it possible to do with Nordic? Or the Nordic can support the RTOS? And do you have provide the sample code like TI CC2650 sensortag (Multiple service)?

Thanks,

BR,

Hi,

The SoftDevice support multiple roles concurrently, so you should have no problem making a HID mouse which is also a beacon and/or heart rate monitor.

You can use an RTOS of your choice with the nRF. The SDK has examples with FreeRTOS. However, there is often no need to, even for quite complex applications. In my experience using an RTOS often tends to increase complexity rather than reduce it.

Dose Nordic have multiple roles example without using RTOS?

Yes, the SDK has several multirole examples.
