BLE Localiser and Control

Talkat iOS Conf SG 2017 · 2017-10-19..10-20· [embedded-and-hardware]

Three battery‑powered Raspberry Pis broadcast BLE adverts while an iPad scans RSSI and converts it to distance with the path‑loss formula, then trim top and bottom 20% of samples before trilaterating position among three beacons arranged ~2 m apart. A Swift central relays chosen LED patterns over UDP and UNIX domain sockets to a Python process that drives a Unicorn HAT 8x8 RGB grid; live demo changes color, LED count and brightness successfully, using onboard Wi‑Fi for control.
