Hello, currently I am thinking about the proximity concept.
The following scenario is given:
- We have a Display that shoud lock/unlock a Device
- We have a iPhone as Key The Device with the Monitor should be locked until the iPhone comes close to the display.
The question is, what role the iPhone and the display shoud take? Which device is reporter (peripheral role) and which device is monitor (central role)?
Quote from the proximity specification: "A Proximity Reporter is likely to be an LE-only device, and therefore it should be in the GAP Peripheral role and the Proximity Monitor should be in the GAP Central role"
The Display is powered by a battery and is therefore such as the iPhone a LE-only device. I would understand it so, that in this case the iPhone is the key and thus takes the peripheral role. I'm not sure if it also make sense if the Display is the Reporter and the iPhone is the Monitor.
