I have a question about my new coming project. Just to make sure it is possible to do before I start.
I need to connect 7 TI sensorTags through a Bluetooth connection with an Arduino101. The Arduino101 collects the data and send it to an app for instance the IOtool, also through a Bluetooth connection.
So in short the Arduino101 reads in the data of 7 different sensors through a Bluetooth connection and then writes is back to store this data into an Android app.
My question, is the Arduino101 capable of doing this? Because so far I only found some information about the Arduino101 connecting to just one Bluetooth device and only reads or writes the data but not both.
The first thing to do is ensure that the tags use a compatible bluetooth protocol.
As for bluetooth itself, you might get useful information here. http://www.martyncurrey.com/hm-10-bluetooth-4ble-modules/
Note that this deals with BLE modules on normal Arduinos, not 101s.
The information in the link is the the most useful for BLE and Arduino that I know of, but it might assume some prior knowledge. If you haven't got any, which appears to be the case, it will probably be useful later.
Essentially, bluetooth is a one-to-one communication system, so what you read should be no surprise. That does not mean you cannot communicate with other devices, it is a matter of how BLE is configured and controlled, as I believe is explained in the link.
