Eddystone transmits messages to nearby smartphones. It offers better outcomes, as it is a Bluetooth Low Energy Beacon, providing location and proximity-related functionalities. It can be managed remotely by integrating with Google services and can be sensed by Android and iOS. Eddystone’s frame format includes Eddystone UID, Eddystone EID, Eddystone URL and Eddystone TLM.

To create a Bluetooth beacon system, a RECO beacon from the Korean company Perples Inc. and a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 smartphone were used (see Figure 2(a), (b)). The RECO beacon is certified by international organizations such as the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Communauté Européenne (CE marking), and it supports global standard Bluetooth beacons such as the Apple iBeacon and the Google Eddystone. The Galaxy Note 3 is equipped with a Bluetooth module that supports Bluetooth 4.0, and has a 3200 mAh battery. The Bluetooth beacon transmits a universally unique identifier (UUID) and a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) through the Bluetooth signal at regular intervals. If the smartphone user enters the signal receiving area, the Bluetooth beacon signal is received by the smart phone app, and the user’s data are sent to the cloud server. After the individual user’s information is recognized by the cloud server, the appropriate related service information is sent to the smart phone app, and this is how Bluetooth beacon-based services are provided.
