Challenges and Solutions
Overcoming key technical and design hurdles to deliver a superior conversational AI experience.
01. Secure BLE Connectivity
Establishing a reliable and secure Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) connection between the app and multiple iBeacons in proximity.
Implemented password-protected pairing with encrypted BLE communication and timeout-based session management to ensure secure connectivity.
02. Accurate Beacon Discovery
Detecting and differentiating between multiple iBeacons broadcasting simultaneously in dense environments.
Optimized BLE scanning algorithms and introduced signal strength filtering (RSSI-based detection) to identify the correct beacon accurately.
03. Comprehensive Parameter Configuration
Providing users with the ability to configure multiple iBeacon parameters such as UUID, Major, Minor, and Transmission Power without complexity.
Developed a structured parameter management interface with grouped settings and real-time validation feedback to prevent configuration errors.
Objective
The client is manufacturer of multipurpose iBeacons. Objective was to develop and application to configure these iBeacons.
Secure connection with beacon was most important factor. The application needed to provide comprehensive configuration capabilities while ensuring security and ease of use.
Our Approach
Security-First BLE Implementation
PlusInfosys use BLE connection to connect with iBeacon securely, with a password. Simple UI was designed for the app. PlusInfosys Defined a way to view and update all parameters of iBeacons with security as the primary consideration.
