Bluno - BLE With Arduino Uno

The Bluno board allows users to integrate Bluetooth 4.0 functionality into Arduino projects by combining a TI CC2540 BLE chip with an Arduino Uno, enabling wireless programming and communication between devices using low-power Bluetooth. It supports various BLE features and is compatible with Arduino pins and libraries, making it a versatile prototyping platform for developing smart devices and wireless projects. Open-source Android and iOS apps are also provided to demonstrate and test projects built with the Bluno.

Bluno - BLE with Arduino Uno

Introduction

It's time to get Bluetooth 4.0 into your project, together with your phone! For aficionados of smart devices and
wearables, now you can go further than hacking things bought in the market to building your own prototype out of
garage. The Bluno board is first of its kind in intergrating BT 4.0(BLE) module into Arduino Uno, making it an ideal
prototyping platform for both software and hardware developers to go wireless. You will be able to develope your own
smart bracelet , smart pedometer and more. Through the low- power Bluetooth 4.0 technology, real-time low energy
communication can be made really easy.

Bluno integrates with a TI CC2540 BT 4.0 chip with the Arduino UNO development board. It allows wireless
programming via BLE, supports Bluetooth HID, supports AT command to config the BLE, and you can upgrade BLE
firmware easily. Bluno is also compatible with all Arduino Uno pins which means any project made with Uno can
directly go wireless!
Whatsmore, we also developed the App for the Bluno (both Android and IOS), and they are completely opensource, so
that you can modify and develope your own BLE-hardware platform. Below is a quick demo video covering some of
the major features of Bluno with the help of an Accessory Shield for Bluno, which will also be available very soon.

In short, you can use Bluno with any Bluetooth 4.0 compatible devices and enjoy features such as wireless
transmission, master and slave settings, wireless burning, and even establishing a Bluetooth HID connection with the
PC between devices.
Note: For the demo application and arduino code, we integrated dfrobot wireless libraries for the beginners. The idea
is supplying a simple way for you to use wireless modules without learning the wireless comunication
protocol.However, for the developer, recommend to custom or choose the protocol according to the product features
or the application.
