SmartThermostat

This repository is an Android mobile application which demonstrates the mechanism to receive data from the inbuilt sensors (temperature and humidity) embeddded in an Arduino-Nano 33 and display the same in the Android device using Bluetooth LE.

Peripheral and Client

Peripheral

• Arduino-Nano 33 BLE Sense, which advertises data. (GATT Server) [Refer: BLE_Thermostat.ino file in ArduinoBlePeripheralForAndroid repository]

Client

• The mobile application, which receives data advertised by the peripheral device. (GATT Client) [Refer: Current Repository]

Features in the application:

1. Scan for BLE devices broadcasting Environmental-Sensing Service
2. Connect to the BLE device
3. Receive data advertised by the peripheral
   • Environmental-Sensing Service
     • Temperature (Characteristic Property: Read and Notify)
     • Humidity (Characteristic Property: Read and Notify)
   • Device-Information Service
     • Manufacturer Name (Characteristic Property: Read)
     • Manufacturer Model (Characteristic Property: Read)
   • LED Service (Custom Service)
     • LED Status (Characteristic Property: Write)

Implementation:

• Activity:
  • MainActivity - Allows user to scan for BLE devices of type Environmental-Sensing via Dialog and display them in BleDeviceAdapter along with data from BLE peripheral
• Service:
  • BleConnectivityService (Bounded-service) - Performs asynchronous operations of connecting, disconnecting and receiving data from the peripheral and, communicates with the UI via Broadcast-Receiver
• Broadcast-Receivers:
  • AclBroadcastReceiver - Broadcasts global events of connection and disconnection of BLE devices
