Bluetooth services

• Consulting

  I can provide guidance and expertise on what is possible with Bluetooth, what will be approved by Apple for Apps in the App Store, and identify potential risk factors. I'll make suggestions on how to proceed and estimate the cost and time to deliver your project.

• Prototyping

  I can rapidly prototype a device with production Bluetooth hardware and an iOS App. I have developed a toolchain which allows me to build custom features for your project while integrating common functionality like battery level and over-the-air firmware updates quickly.

  Using an iterative approach to prototyping and working on the things which pose the highest risk first mean I can give a better estimate of later stages of development, giving you confidence the work can be achieved in budget.

• Design, development and manufacture

  I can develop firmware, iOS and macOS Apps in either central or peripheral modes. In particular I have extensive experience creating HID (Human Interface Devices) Bluetooth products such as keyboards. I've also created several 'sensor' devices with digital, analog and I²C or SPI inputs.

  I will work with you to develop your product in an iterative manner, producing prototypes and seeking feedback whenever feasible.

  When development is complete I will help you take the product to manufacture, providing firmware flashing and testing utilities, and ensure it is compliant with Bluetooth specifications.

  Let's make something cool!
