Ble eddystone and ibeacon simultaneously nrf52832

[Abdullah_M]

Hello, I am working on a project that consists of sending Eddystone and ibeacon packets simultaneously, to begin with, I started by sending one package of each separately, it was a success but the problem is that when I send both packages through my uc button,

it sends only the first packet while the second one is never sent, here's a screenshot for a better understanding :

I want to stop sending the first package (ibeacon) by pressing the button_1 (it works).

I want to send the second package (Eddystone) by pressing the button_2 (this one doesn't work) and yet it detects the button press.

Ps : the button is on a chip nordic nrf52832.

Hi Abdullah,

I am well now. Thank you for your kind words.

Your reply was not late. It is me who have to apologize for the amount of time I took to resolve your question. Sorry again for that.

I noticed you initially ask about how to read from an accelerometer and then add that data to an iBeacon? I assume you edited your comment and no longer wish to ask about that.

In any cases, I can quickly tell you what I know on that topic.

Regarding how to get data from your accelerometer, it is going to depends on the sensor's specifics. However, that topic is sufficiently different. If you need help with that, please open a new ticket.

Regarding adding data to beacons, I can tell you that adding a few (<10) bytes of data to a beacon data is simple and doable.

For iBeacon specifically, I am not sure it is allowed. I have not been able to find official documents from Apple about the iBeacon specifications other than their Getting Started guide. Therefore, I cannot claim whether adding something to its beacon data is allowed. Perhaps you could find develop support from Apple on that.

This stackoverflow thread suggest that is allowed. However, while it could be OK for the current date, but in the future, iOS can be changed to judge such beacon data not iBeacon, and then not process your beacon properly. It is totally up to Apple's discretion.

Please feel free to follow up if you have further questions regarding the same initial topic. If everything is fine now, it would be great if you can verify an answer

Happy coding!
