Summary

We've covered quite a lot for such a short chapter. You learned about the Core Bluetooth framework and a very small subset of the features contained within. I'd recommend delving deeper into this framework using off the shelf hardware. There's an excellent article on Ray Wenderlich's website about using an iPhone to interact with the Polar Bluetooth heart rate monitor, which you can find at http://bit.ly/hr-monitor.

In the next chapter, we're going to cover determining distance to build a treasure hunt app. We're going to make it exciting by making the app talk as we get closer to the treasure. So, what are ye waiting for me hearties? Let's go!
