I am new to bluetooth LE stack development and need some help to understand a usage example and how to make it work.
So, I have Windows 8.1 Lenovo Ideapad Yoga 2 Pro (with Bluetooth 4.0) and Android HTC One working with KitKat 4.4.2 (also supporting Bluetooth 4.0). The use case that I want to do with these resources is to make one of them peripheral and the other a central device that exchanges data using the Bluetooth low-energy protocol. I read on the Android developer website that it does not yet support “peripheral” mode in the Android BLE stack. And I'm fine with this, as long as I can make my Win-laptop behave like peripherals. I am working on an Android client application (so there is a wizard that will request service data from the periphery / server). I want to know if Windows 8.1 supports BLE peripheral mode. If so, is there an example code that I can look at.I have not yet been able to find information about this.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank,
Abhishek
