Zusammenfassung: | A method, apparatus, and computer program product are provided in order to provide improvements in the configuring of Bluetooth low energy (BLE) advertising beacons. Embodiments of the present invention are directed to conveniently and reliably configuring or updating the configuration of a BLE beacon, while limiting the amount of technical information and/or tools required. A method is provided comprising: receiving a data stream encoded in a flickering barcode from a programming device; decoding, using a processor, the received data stream; and configuring a BLE beacon advertisement using the decoded data stream. The method may further include transmitting the configured BLE beacon advertisement. A corresponding apparatus and a computer program product are also provided.
L'invention concerne un procédé, un appareil et un produit de programme informatique destinés à apporter des améliorations dans la configuration des balises publicitaires à faible consommation Bluetooth (BLE). Des modes de réalisation de la présente invention visent à configurer ou à mettre à jour de manière commode et fiable la configuration d'une balise BLE, tout en limitant la quantité d'informations techniques et/ou d'outils nécessaires. Le procédé selon l'invention comprend les étapes suivantes : réception d'un flux de données codé dans un code à barres scintillant de la part d'un dispositif de programmation ; décodage, à l'aide d'un processeur, du flux de données reçu ; et configuration d'une publicité de balise BLE en utilisant le flux de données décodé. Le procédé peut en outre comprendre l'émission de l'annonce publicitaire de balise BLE configurée. L'invention concerne également un appareil et un produit de programme informatique correspondants. |
