BLE Shields in the Maker Shed: One-Tap Wireless Between Arduino and Cell Phones
Maker Shed is now carrying RedBearLab’s Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) Shield.

True to its name, BLE is low power, and it’s also easy. Check out the walkthrough in the second half of this post: with a few clicks (or taps) I got my iPad and Arduino talking the universal language of blinkenlights!
