That's useful for covering a larger area, but not really for pinpointing a users location. BTP is intended to be used with multiple bluetooth sensors/adapters. It determines where to send a call by which sensor has a greater signal strength to your bluetooth device.
My idea was maybe some USB to Cat5 extenders with USB bluetooth adapters. That way you don't need a dedicated machine at each point to run BTP. http://www.iogear.com/main.php?loc=product&Item=GUCE50 goes for about $88 plus the cost of another BT adapter. Just thought of something though, I believe BTP does not currently have support for multiple BT adapters. So it would probably have to be extended to allow at least multiple instances bound to individual adapters. * sorry for the dupes Dean.. forgot to hit Reply to all. :) On Mon, 6 Dec 2004 19:50:28 -0500, dean collins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > What about modifying something like this? > http://www.popsci.com/popsci/how2/article/0,20967,714017,00.html > > Cheers, > Dean > > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jon Radon > Sent: Monday, December 06, 2004 5:58 PM > To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion > Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] Bluetooth with * > > Yes, it's called btp.
