Overview

This learning guide will show you how you can take your Raspberry Pi (or almost any Linux-based device with a bit of poking and prodding) and turn it into an Beacon node using our

Bluetooth 4.0 USB Module

and the open source Bluez stack.

What You'll Need

A Raspberry Pi (any model should be OK)
A Bluetooth 4.0 USB Module (not every module works with Bluez, though ours definitely does!)
A iOS 7.0 based device (recent iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch) to test with
An iBeacon reader app from the App Store to test with (Try Locate Beacon, but any free iBeacon watcher ought to be OK!)

Acknowledgement

A big thanks to Tony Smith at The Register for putting together his

tutorial

on configuring Bluez to transmit Beacon data!
