Abstract
Wireless data transfer protocol is common in portable bio-medical devices because of its advantages: network capability; ultra-low power consumption; implanted devices feasibility. However the entry threshold for developing bluetooth applications appears too high for most of researchers when compared to the classical UART interface developed in early 1980s. We present a versatile approach for flexible data transfer within bio-medical lab environment developed using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) wireless protocol. As an example of application we integrated commercially available BLE module controlled with Xamarin Forms based software application into homemade instrument for mice photo-therapy. Our approach enables easy development of customized graphical user interface applications for android portable devices to control the instrument and data collection without special knowledge of the subtleties of BLE interface operation.
