    Hi guys !

    I am starting to play with arduino using a Udoo Neo, I enjoy myself doing some tests, but I want to try bluetooth module.
    I don't find anything in the documentation but a "Coming soon" message :p
    So someone know anything about how to use this ? Is it possible to use this directly in the Arduino IDE ? Or will it be accessible only using Udoobuntu ?
    If anyone know a tutorial or have any information about it please share it :)

    Thanks !
    Nico

    Dear Nico,
    I apologize on behalf of the UDOO Team for the lack of this documentation. It's coming sooner than ever.

    Yeah ! Thank you :)
    I am now trying to play with WiFi, can I use Udoo WiFi using Arduino code? By using WiFi.h library? (I got a error while compiling using #include <WiFi.h> instruction "IPAddress.h : No such file or directory")

    Thanks !
    Nico

    You cannot use the UDOO Wi-FI through Arduino. M4 doesn't access the Wi-Fi/BT module. Maybe recompiling the kernel. The way to do it is by interacting with the Wi-Fi through A9.

    What type of uses of Bluetooth would you like to have documented? This just to make a better documentation

    Hi,
    I am just playing with bluetooth so basically a tuto or something that allow me to send / receive data using bluetooth would be great, or anything that help me to play ;)

    With data you mean like how to open a serial? example: how to create an input/output stream?

    Hello,

    I also need documentation about Bluetooth module inside UDOO neo. What we have to do is to use it like a receiver of beacon messages from ble beacons. Do you have any documentation of how to use Bluetooth module this way? which module is installed into the device? how can I access it?

    Thank you

    I was looking for some way of transmitting the data from the on-board sensors of Neo to a PC.
    It appears there is no way of transmitting serial data through the microUSB port of Neo. If there is, please point me to the relevant document.
    I do not want to use any TTY-USB serial adapters as I am not sure about their compatibility with 3.3v. I don't want to damage the Neo.
    So, if the same thing can be done through Bluetooth, that would be wonderful.
    Regards.

    It's very frustrating always receiving reply to a question with another question !
    Where is the documentation for bluetooth that Udoo team promised ?

    plexi47 The device theybare using is a module from TI they have a linux driver for the beagle bone and the full sdk
    http://www.ti.com/tool/wl1835modcom8b you may this of help the module is based on the cc3000 which are normally pre loaded with common stack
    so should be a case of having a look through the doc on the device and hooking into by adapting the driver the docs are all free but you have
    to create a user account which is also free hopefully it helps. I know it can be frustrating but some times kickstarter projects can take a while
    to get everything promised finished.even the big companies have simular problems i had been working the edison and a year on its still
    not complete.

    Dear @Plexi47, the support exists, the only problem has been for this week, because the all UDOO Team was at the Embedded World.
    The support has now come back as before.

    I tested the Bluetooth Low Energy on the UDOO and it works well. I was able to connect to my Arduino 101 board and toggle the LED on/off. I did this with the "gatttool" utility.
