This project demonstrates a BLE beacon based on Google's Eddystone™ protocol on the BLE Pioneer Kit.
A beacon is a wireless device that broadcasts data (such as temperature) over a periodic radio signal from a known location. Google's Eddystone is a protocol that defines BLE advertisement data formats for beacons. In Eddystone parlance, the advertisement data is called a frame and the advertisement data format is called a frame type. The protocol supports multiple frame types that may be used individually or in combinations to create beacons for a variety of applications.
