Feature Request - Bluetooth Low Energy JS API

[Michael Carter]

Both iOS and Android have BLE APIs. Bluetooth Low Energy could be used for low power sensors, light controllers, etc, etc. A JS API for this would be awesome! I'll make another post with a proposed API if this is something you guys would consider pursuing.

Definitely consider it - let us know more details on what you would expect/need from the API.

Google Chrome Apps (JS) have an experimental API for Bluetooth / BLE. Obviously this is for HTML5 apps, but this API is a good example of what you would need for this feature. Chrome Apps have also arrived for mobile devices, and Google is actively developing Cordova/PhoneGap plugins for Android and iOS. This means that an iOS Cordova plugin is likely coming soon. Their open source implementation might be helpful to you.
