Eddystone

Eddystone is an open-source Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) protocol developed by Google, designed for beacons that transmit small data packets over short distances. These beacons can broadcast information like URLs, location details, or sensor data to nearby devices such as smartphones, enabling context-aware experiences without apps or internet access. Eddystone supports various frame types, including URLs, making it easy to deliver relevant content to users in specific locations, like stores or museums. Its flexibility and open design allow developers to create innovative, efficient marketing, navigation, or informational solutions across different industries.
