BLE real time data transmission nrf51 DK code

[carvalhn]

Hi Guys,

I need to implement real time streaming of accelerometer and gyro values from the nrf51 DK to either a desktop or android system. Could someone please help me on how to go about with this and if there are any desktop clients JAVA for reading data from the nrf51 board over BLE? Basically, I need to concentrate on data streaming and I need a data rate of 50kbps or so, is that achievable with nrf51? Also, are there any GATT profiles for accelrometer data because I couldnt find any

Thanks and Regards, Neil

Depends on your requirements, but one possibility is to present the embedded device to the host as a HID device which permits you to expose the sensor data via HID (see HID Sensors Page in HID Usage Tables v1.12). There's already sensor framework support in Windows, OSX, Linux, and Android hosts for dealing with sensor data via HID.

What about the data rates would it be better then simple GATT profiles? and would it be streamed data?
