Play Bluno is an app that provides extreme ease for DIYers,Arduino enthusiasts,and home automation zealots to do demonsrations and tests with Bluno controller board via BLE(Blutooth Low Energy) communication. Specially designed for the Arduino-based BLE hardwares, users can easily learn to control and interact with a variety of functions with their phone. For example, displaying real-time temperature and humidity data on the phone,switching lights on/off or stimulating a full-color L_E_D light. It offers you a new way to learn and play with electronic devices via BLE communication. Based on the Arduino hardware platform, it's quite easy for you to build a network and test your own system based on BLE. Play Bluno is first of its kind to solve the problem of communication between hardwares via BLE and is designed to change this situation. The user interface of Play Bluno is quite clear and straightforward.
