Image Transfer App

[bsarica]

Hi,

I am using nrf52840 DK to try out the image transfer service and its capabilities but unfortunately, I don't have the camera. I was trying to turn the image into a hex file and send it but everything seems connected to the camera and I could not find where should I exactly change it. Is this approach seems applicable and if applicable what path should I follow? 

Thank you in advance.

If you want to send a physical picture you will indeed need a camera, but to just test the sample you can just comment out the camera_init() function to make it advertise and connect to a scanning device, then send some arbitrary data if you'd like.

Best regards,

Is it wrong to apply the hex version of the picture into some array of uint8_t and then try to load from there?

By default the image transfer service doesn't send an array, but you could change it do do so if you'd like I guess. By default it sends a string of data (see ble_its_string_send()) in the ble_image_transfer_service.c file. 

Best regards,

Simon
