Connecting Bluetooth devices to the cloud requires an intermediary, converting Bluetooth's non-IP oriented messaging into an IP-ready format. Blecon's innovative Bluetooth model makes rolling out cloud-connected Bluetooth devices dead simple, with a zero-configuration model that scales, leverages your existing infrastructure as hotspots, and with complete end-to-end security. It's the easiest route to the cloud for Bluetooth LE devices.
Bluetooth is everywhere - in every smartphone, most computers, and more. Blecon's unique approach leverages the ubiquity of Bluetooth devices to turn your devices into hotspots that seamlessly bridge other devices to cloud applications. By running the Blecon application on a gateway device and running the Blecon Bluetooth stack on client devices, IoT data automatically connects up to cloud applications with no configuration and no requirement for dedicated gateway hardware.
Blecon's Bluetooth stack is a Zephyr-based platform that manages data transmission, secure identity, global time and location, and OTA updates for client devices. It's supported on our Nordic nRF52, nRF53, and nRF54 Bluetooth modules.
Any Android, iOS, Windows, or Mac device can be used as a Blecon-enabled hotspot. Client devices automatically connect, with no need to pair or configure. Additionally, dedicated hotspots are available for those areas without existing infrastructure.
Data sent through Blecon hotspots arrives at the cloud level as JTTP(s)/JSON webhooks, which means you have complete control over which cloud platform you use. Integrate with your existing cloud application or design new with ease.
