Bluetooth LE proximity sensor

Chema

Hi,

I´m looking for a Bluetooth low energy proximity sensor with this (or similar) characterisics:

  • One main (receiver) module and many secondary (transmitter) modules.

  • The secondary modules should have a programmable ID number.

  • When the secondary modules are 20 meters near or less to main module, this one should identify which secondary module is and indicate the presence of it.

Do you know what I can use with this characteristic?

Thanks..

    Hi

    As @RK says, what you describe is pretty much a beacon. Nordic has these Beacon kits. We also have example code demonstrating beacon and/or proximity features. Note that you'll need a programmer/debugger for the beacons and the nRF51 DK is an excellent choice for this. It is basically a development kit with an nRF51422 that also allows you to program and debug other external kits or custom boards. With a Beacon and a nRF51DK you should be good to go to start developing.
