Product Features

RS Nexus BLE Tooling and the Nexus BLE Gateway currently provide a focused set of production-oriented capabilities for connected BLE sensor acquisition, validation, and operator workflows.

Current High-Level Features

  • Multi-sensor BLE gateway control for scanning, connecting, subscribing, reading, writing, disconnecting, and status collection.

  • Shared NexusBLESdk host API for serial transport, request/response handling, mixed JSON and binary parsing, and monitoring.

  • Connected streaming workflows for supported sensors including Movella DOT, Nexus N3 Dot, Movesense, and MetaWear.

  • High-rate binary notification forwarding for supported sensor streams, alongside human-readable JSON control commands.

  • RF Survey workflows for single-target and mixed-sensor signal-quality mapping.

  • Operator-facing capture workflow for supported sensor families with session manifests and output-file organization.

  • Gateway and stream diagnostics for transport status, notification statistics, and stream-health visibility.

  • Integration path into Nexus N3 Edge Intelligence for larger edge deployments and custom applications.

RF Survey

RF Survey is a major product feature for validating deployment quality and mapping BLE signal behavior over time.

Current RF Survey capabilities include:

  • one-time target discovery followed by survey execution against selected addresses

  • pushed per-window rf_survey_status updates from the gateway

  • per-target score, quality, trend, RSSI, and observation summaries during each survey window

  • mixed-target surveys across supported sensor families

  • final survey summaries with best, worst, mean, and sample-count scoring information

Supported Host Workflows

The current tooling supports three broad host-side workflow categories:

  • developer and integrator workflows through NexusBLESdk and the sensor-specific Python packages

  • validation workflows through sensor sample clients and RF Survey clients

  • operator workflows through the Capture client for guided session setup and recording

Design Direction

The current feature set is organized so teams can start with a working supported workflow, inspect the corresponding Python client, and then build a custom host integration on the same gateway protocol if needed.
