A BLE Device Grasping Support System Using Smartphone

It would be useful to be able to detect abandoned BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) devices or suspicious BLE devices in the surrounding area. In this letter, we propose and develop a system that supports grasping of nearby BLE devices using a smartphone. Our proposed system can support obtaining a list of MAC addresses of nearby BLE devices and identifying devices with each MAC address by bringing the smartphone closer to a device. In this letter, we conducted a basic evaluation of our proposed system through experiments using actual BLE devices.
