IEEE Event next Tues (4/22) - The Cloud meets Bluetooth Smart

Given the importance of Bluetooth Smart to wearables, I would like to invite you to the IEEE Consumer Electronics Society meeting next Tues (4/22) on "The Cloud meets Bluetooth Smart" given by Joe Decuir, IEEE Distinguished Lecturer.

This is an IEEE event, so, there is a $10 fee for non-IEEE members to attend.

Abstract

Bluetooth Low Energy, aka Bluetooth Smart, can wirelessly connect sensors that run on coin cells or scavenged power for years. That makes Bluetooth Smart attractive for implementing the "Internet of Things". The missing piece: connecting these devices to the Internet. The Bluetooth Special Interest Group has just published a pair of RESTful APIs . These APIs, implemented in a gateway, can allow an Internet client application to find, connect and operate Bluetooth Smart servers: sensors and effectors. The presentation will cover: what is Bluetooth Smart? How does it work? How does the energy get so low? How the client-server architecture works. How to fit a RESTful API to that architecture. Use cases. Perspective with other connectivity methods. For reference: on IEEE Xplore, see articles on Bluetooth Smart in IEEE CES Magazine for January 2014 and April 2014
