Title: Bluetooth presence detection
Post by: pm on June 12, 2014, 09:19:26 AM
Yesterday I received my bluetooth (USB) dongle for raspberry pi.

I want to build presence detection, looking for some mobile phones.

What I see is my iPhone needs to be in the 'bluetooth settings screen' to be detectable by the "hcitool scan" command. Is there a way to workaround this? Has anybody build this kind of solution?
