Bluetooth® is a wireless communication technology designed for short-range data exchange between devices. With this technology, users can establish secure connections between devices, transfer data, and even control devices wirelessly.
In particular, XBee devices use Bluetooth® Low Energy (LE) which is optimized for use cases where devices need to periodically transmit small amounts of data, such as in mobile communication, sensor data collection, or wearable devices.
In this section, you’ll learn how Bluetooth® LE is integrated into XBee devices, how to enable the Bluetooth® LE interface on a XBee 3 BLU, and access all the reference information needed to build a solution with your devices.
| This section includes technical information about Bluetooth® LE. If you’re not familiar with it, see the Bluetooth® Low Energy reference page for more information. |
