Description : Python tools for converting bluetooth data and packets
Comprehensive suite of utilities for managing and transforming Bluetooth data
and packets within Python applications.
.
Key features:
.
- Data Conversion Tools: Functions to convert Bluetooth data into various
formats, facilitating easier manipulation and analysis.
- Packet Parsing: Utilities to parse Bluetooth advertisement data, enhancing
the ability to interpret and utilize information broadcasted by BLE devices.
- Privacy Enhancements: Methods to resolve private addresses using identity
resolving keys (IRK), increasing security and privacy in Bluetooth
communications.
- Distance Calculation: Functionality to estimate the distance between
devices based on signal strength, useful for proximity-based applications.
- Utility Functions: A collection of helper functions to perform common tasks
such as converting MAC addresses to integers, generating human-readable
names for devices, and extracting the newest manufacturer data from
advertisement packets.
I plan to maintain this package as part of the Python team.
