"The BlueVarsity Package makes it easier and less costly to teach students how to develop Bluetooth technology by packaging Rococo's tried and tested Bluetooth application tools with relevant Bluetooth training courses. Because Impronto Simulator runs Java applications in a simulated Bluetooth environment, Bluetooth apps can be built without costly hardware." BlueVarsity Bluetooth Education Package includes: - Bluetooth Training - Bluetooth Demo Pack - Impronto Simulator (Bluetooth simulation tool) - Impronto Developer Kit (Bluetooth application development tool) - BlueVarsity Network - BlueVarsity Award Program Training is a key component of the BlueVarsity Package and can be used as the foundation for a complete Bluetooth module. The BlueVarsity two-day training courses cover the Bluetooth Protocol Stack The set of protocols used in a communications network. A protocol stack is a prescribed hierarchy of software layers, starting from the application layer at the top (the source of the data being sent) to the data link layer at the bottom (transmitting the bits on the wire). (L2CAP L2CAP - Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol , RFCOMM (protocol) RFCOMM - (RS232 Serial Cable Emulation Profile) A Bluetooth transport protocol in the Core Protocol Stack based on the ETSI standard. RFCOMM Layer Tutorial. , OBEX, BCC (Blind Carbon Copy) The field in an e-mail header that names additional recipients for the message. It is similar to carbon copy (cc), but the names do not appear in the recipient's message. Not all e-mail systems support the bcc feature. See fcc. ), Bluetooth Protocols Bluetooth uses a variety of protocols. L2CAP L2CAP, which stands for Logical Link Control and Adaptation Protocol is used within the Bluetooth protocol stack. , Discovering Bluetooth Devices, Service Discovery, Connecting to Devices and Managing Piconets.
