Apple U1 API is finally open and our new UWB Beacons are compatible
Finally, smartphones can be really smart. The little computer in our pockets could connect to a server on the other side of the world, but it didn't really know much about our surroundings or the context we were in...
That reality changed in 2013 when Apple released iOS7 and opened up the Core Location API. This allowed iPhones to detect the presence of low power Bluetooth beacons. Developers using APIs from Apple could estimate their signal strength and approximate proximity with an accuracy of 1 - 3m. It worked great indoors where GPS signals weren't available.
Estimote was the first company to release iBeacon-compatible devices back in 2013. Our iconic Bluetooth beacons and SDKs allowed thousands of developers to enhance their mobile apps with micro-location features.
Tumblr media
Now, in August 2021, Apple released their new mobile operating system – iOS15 – and opened the Nearby Interactions API.
It allows iPhones to talk to nearby UWB beacons and compute distance with inch-level precision. In addition to distance, this API can also tell the direction/angle where the beacon is installed relative to the phone. This is a superior upgrade to location technologies embedded into modern phones and will create another wave of innovation.
UWB BEACONS & IOS SDK
And here we are again. We are the first company on the market to release UWB beacons by updating our iconic Proximity Beacons with a state-of-the-art UWB radio that is compatible with the Ultra Wideband U1-chip installed in Apple devices.
We are shipping them alongside an iOS Demo Application and an iOS SDK available on GitHub.
Tumblr media
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Our new UWB Proximity Beacons, in addition to BLE radio, are equipped with a UWB chip and antenna. They run firmware compatible with the specification from FiRa Consortium. It's the same UWB communication standard Apple implemented in their U1-enabled devices to make them interoperable with other UWB devices. The protocol uses a combination of Bluetooth and UWB to provide precise location/angle. When a mobile app using our SDK or a native Nearby Interactions API wants to get distance estimation, it first uses Bluetooth to detect nearby devices. Once Bluetooth communication is established, both the beacon’s UWB radio and the smartphone’s UWB modules wake up. The devices send radio signals to each other and compute very precise distance estimation. As there are multiple UWB antennas embedded into the phone, software can also determine which angle the UWB signals are coming from.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN UWB AND BLE?
Both these wireless communication technologies are low-power and short-range and both are supported by modern smartphones. The main difference when it comes to location technology is the technique used to estimate the distance between the beacon and the phone.
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) With Bluetooth, the longer the distance from the beacon, the weaker the signal received by 2.4GHz radio (RSSI) is. Based on that signal strength received by the phone, the mobile SDK can compute approximate distance with 1-5m precision, depending on the venue.
Tumblr media
Ultra Wideband (UWB)
With UWB, the distance estimation technique is based on time of flight measurements. UWB Beacon and the phone talk to each other sending 3-6 GHz radio signals back and forth. Both the beacon and the phone measure precise time duration of that back-and-forth communication. Multiplying it by the speed of light (also the speed of radio waves), the SDK can very precisely compute distance estimations with an average accuracy of 10 cm (4 inches).
Tumblr media
WHAT ARE THE APPLICATIONS?
One obvious application is the ability for a phone to search for lost items that are in range, but which location we don't precisely know. Apple showcased this use-case with their FindMy app and AirTags launched in early 2021.
Another application is related to the superior security UWB communication provides. The only way to ensure that you are in front of your own car or apartment is to really be there physically. Because of the time of flight physics, it's not possible to fake that signal and pretend you are in the car. This prevents ā€œrelay attacksā€ possible with other radio technologies. This "proof-of-presence" technology is already used for keyless car applications.

Eddystone protocol
Bluetooth beacons are taking over all the marketing strategies. They enable proximity-aware applications for businesses, customers and other industrial environments. This article explains the Eddystone protocol and specifications. Moreover, you will learn about Bluetooth BLE beacon standards of Eddystone, iBeacon, and AltBeacon as well.
So the beacons are about to transform our entire world. Before we move ahead, how do their advertising packets work and what is their standard?
Bluetooth BLE beacon standards
Today there is three critical market standard for beacons.
Tumblr media
1. Eddystone from Google
Google launched this beacon somewhere back in 2015. It has compatibility with both Android and iOS smartphones. Eddystone transmits packets with three frame types. Different businesses can manage their beacons using the Proximity Beacon Application Programming Interface.
2. iBeacon from Apple
Apple launched its beacon in 2013. It has also compatible with Android and iOS smartphones. It uses low energy Bluetooth vicinity detecting technology to transmit a universally unique identifier known as UUID. We will explain it in detail in this article ahead.
3. AltBeacon from Radius Network
Radius networks launched its beacon somewhere in 2014. It is an open-source beacon having a wide range of open markets with a different type of beacon applications. All three standards use BLE broadcast mechanism to transmit advertising packets on the BLE channel. They use 37, 38 and 39 to avoid conflicting Wi-Fi traffic.
Eddystone Protocol Specifications
All standards use their own structure of the BLE advertising for adding their data and formats. The beacon device advertises the same packet on all three of the advertising channels every time. Therefore, all BLE packet scanner or receiver can pick that packet easily. Once the receiver receives, it determines that either that packet is decodable or not. If that is decodable, the receiver takes the corresponding action.
Common Elements
Within the advertising packet, there are different structures of data payload: length, type, and data.
• The length field basically defines the overall size of the subsequent data fields and their data type.
• Moreover, the data type explains whether the data is a name or A URI. It further designates that either it is a service UUID or one of the other defined data types.
• The last one is packet data. It is where beacon devices take the structure as a step further. So they define a sub-structure inside the data field. They do so to determine the various standards.
It is important that both data and advertising packets use the same format. Beacon devices basically follow the standard advertising packet formats. However, they include data payload for one or more standards.
Eddystone beacon protocol format by Google
Tumblr media
Eddystone is a cross-platform, open-source beacon format presented by Google. It defines many different frame types as compared to other beacon standards. Beacons can use these formats combined or individually.
Eddystone-UID
You can use this format to broadcast a unique beacon ID. It broadcast a unique 16-byte beacon ID. The ID contains a 10-byte namespace and a 6-byte instance. Furthermore, this ID can be useful for mapping a device to a record in the external storage.
The namespace portion uses for grouping a particular set of beacons. On the other hand, the instance ID is helpful to identify individual devices in the whole group. In addition to this, the division of ID into instance components and namespace facilitates to optimize of BLE scanning strategies.
Eddystone-URL
Beacons use it to broadcast Uniform Resource Locators. The frame broadcasts a URL that has a compressed encoding format to fit the AD package. After decoding the URL, users can use the URLs to access the internet.
For example, if an Eddystone-URL beacon broadcast the URL like goo.gl/moco18, the client can go to the web page by tapping on it.
Eddystone-TLM
It is for broadcasting telemetry -health and status- data about the beacon device itself. So this frame broadcasts telemetry information about the beacon device. This information includes battery voltage, counts of broadcast packets, and device temperature.
Eddystone-EID
It uses ephemeral identifiers to enhance the security of the beacons. This frame broadcasts an encrypted ephemeral identifier. This identifier changes periodically during the initial registration at a rate determined with a web service.
The Eddystone-URL frame offers web content bases on proximity without requiring an app for different mobile platforms. Chrome for iOS already supports this Eddystone feature. By utilizing Chrome Today Widget, users are capable to access web content relevant to the vicinity. So they use to receive notifications when encountering beacons.
You can find different protocol specifications along with tools and open-source code on Google Eddystone GitHub page.
iBeacon data of Apple
Apple was the first company that introduced a beacon to the world. The iBeacon is a trademark by Apple. All companies that want to sell this product must obtain a free license from Apple.
iBeacon uses a 30-byte packet. Beacons must broadcast this packet on 100 meters intervals. However, all beacons do not adhere to this distance restriction. Different iOS apps that use the Core Location framework can ask iOS to continuously monitor for beacon-region-crossing events. It includes existing or entering the proximity of an iBeacon by the UUID. Moreover, it further includes major and minor fields.
IOS tracking takes place whether the application is running or not. Moreover, it can turn on the closed app. It is mandatory to turn on location features. Otherwise, the app will not monitor the location.
AltBeacon standard from Radius Networking
AltBeacon is another popular beacon standard. The specification of AltBeacon is an attempt to create an OS-agnostic and open-source standard. For detailed specifications of AltBeacon, you can visit the official website of AltBeacon.
Eddystone-URL is not working anymore?
Sometimes it appears that Eddystone-URL is not working. The reason is: Google has some ranking or scoring mechanism. It means sometimes Google does not show a URL having a very low click-rate. Moreover, they also hide notifications or URLs that you have dismissed in the past. However, it is difficult to specify the exact reason here. If there is an unseen issue, you can take your issue directly to the Physical Web crew.

Everything you need to know aboutĀ iBeacon Technology
You are here because you want to learn iBeacon technology. This article will guide you about different aspects of this amazing Technology such as its setup requirements, working, and its advantages.
Beacons are wireless transmitters that use low-energy Bluetooth technology to send signals known as BLE to the nearby smart devices. Beacons are installed at different locations and send push notifications to the customers on their cellphone. The push notification has content related to the person’s current location. The purpose of iBeacon technology is to enhance marketing and better customer experience.
What is iBeacon?
Most of the time, beacon and iBeacon terms are used interchangeably. However, iBeacon is basically a trademarked term used by Apple for its location-aware system. It allows different mobile apps running on the different Android and iOS devices to receive signals from this device in the physical world.
This device sends push notifications that contain useful information on the basis of the customer’s current location. It uses Bluetooth Low Energy for its communication.
What do you need to make an iBeacon works?
Tumblr media
There are two important requirements for this technology working. First, a complete setup of the iBeacon transmitter to send push notification and the other one is a compatible device to receive signals.
The iBeacon transmitter is a device that is fixed in one place anywhere such as the wall and table. You will learn the complete working of this technology in the upcoming section.
You need a mobile device that is capable to receive BLE signals from beacons. The device should support Bluetooth Smart and need Bluetooth to detect beacons. Almost all mobile devices today have Bluetooth by default. A complete BLE-compatible list is available on the Bluetooth official site so you can verify your device there.
To interact with this device, a cellphone must contain compatible versions of Operating systems. If cellphones contain older versions, this beacon technology will not work on your device.
In the case of this device, the app requires location permission to use this service properly.
It is important to note that smartphones don’t trigger actions themselves based on proximity to beacons. A specific app installed on these devices detects beacons by using different APIs such as Estimote SDK or some other native frameworks by Apple.
How does iBeacon technology works?
To understand the complete working of Apple’s iBeacon technology, you need to understand the requirements of this technology. Here is what you need:
Different iBeacon compatible devices such as iBeacon from MOKOSMART.
Sometimes, an internet connection is required.
An app that could be a brand app or any third-party app to receive a notification.
You need a compatible device that supports the iBeacon app installation.
Now, let’s understand the complete working of iBeacon technology:
The devices are attached to the wall or any other place that sends BLE signals to different nearby devices with a serial ID number. The relevant app on smartphones detect signals and react. Without a relevant app, it is not possible to catch the signals. This standard device used for BLE advertising has 4 pieces of important information as follows:
Unique Universal Identifier – UUID: This is basically a 16 bye string that gives a unique identity to the iBeacon. For example, if Coca-Cola has a network of beacons in the grocery store, all beacons belong to Coca-Cola have the same UUID code. This unique identifier contains general information related to the beacon such as who owns it and which business owns it.
Major: This is basically a two-byte string that is used to identify a smaller subset of beacons uniquely within the larger group. For example, if Coca-Cola utilizes 4 beacons in a specific grocery store, all 4 beacons would contain the same major. It helps Coca-Cola to know the exact location of its customers in the specific store.
Minor: This is also a two-byte string that helps to identify beacons individually. Let’s take the Coca-Cola example again. There are 4 beacons in the one grocery store. All 4 beacons have a unique minor. So minor helps a company to uniquely identify the exact location of a customer inside the store.
Tx Power: It provides the proximity distance of the customer from the beacon. How does Tx Power work? Tx power exactly determines the strength of the signal exactly 1 meter from the beacon device. It is hardcoded and calibrated in advance so devices used this as a baseline and provide the estimate distance of the user.
The difference between iBeacon and Eddystone beacon?
Tumblr media
Ā A beacon is a small wireless device used to broadcast radio signals with different product information. A nearby smartphone captures these signals automatically. Most of the time, people used the term iBeacon and beacon interchangeably. However, iBeacon is a beacon developed by Apple. There are some other famous types of beacons such as Eddystone beacon.
Here is the difference between the aforementioned beacons:
1> Technology
iBeacon technology is basically a beacon protocol developed by Apple. iOS 7 or later versions support this protocol and allow iPads and iPhones to scan for different Bluetooth devices nearby. On the other hand, Eddystone beacons are open-source beacons that can be manufactured by any business at an affordable price.
2> Compatibility
iBeacon is compatible with Android and iOS but it is native only for iOS. However, Eddystone is compatible with Android, iOS and all platforms that have support for BLE beacons.
3> Profile
iBeacon is basically a proprietary software so Apple controls its all specifications. However, Eddystone is open-source software. Anyone can use the specification from GitHub. So different businesses and developers access this and contribute to it.
4> Ease of Use
iBeacon is extremely easy to implement. However, Eddystone is much flexible and requires more coding for integration. Actually, different companies develop beacons with Eddystone in their own way so it can be complicated.
5> Usage
In iBeacon, UUIDs, a specific code, have a link with the developer’s server. So when this code is sent to any smartphone, so the device requires a special app to perform a special task after receiving the code. So it requires an app for proper working. On the other hand, Eddystone uses a URL instead of UUID so that user can open that easily in the browser. So it doesn’t require any app for its working.
6>Security and Privacy
iBeacon transmits its signal publically. So anyone can easily detect it by using iOS devices. Moreover, there are different apps available for both Android and iOS that can detect UUID code. So it is not much secure. However, Eddystone has a feature known as Ephemeral Identifier that allows beacons to send a signal such that only authorized clients can identify that signals.
7> API
As iBeacon is proprietary software so it doesn’t contain a specific API. However, Eddystone is an open-source and its API is available for open use.
Overall, both beacons have some pros and cons so you can pick any of them according to your needs. If you want to develop your own beacon, you will definitely go for Eddystone because it is open source.
8> The device compatible with iBeacon
Compatibility is the most important factor for the working of iBeacon technology. Android and iOS are the most used operating systems on smartphones. Luckily, it is compatible with both types of devices.
9> iBeacon for iOS
It is extremely important for the working of this device to install a relevant app for iOS devices. This is a crucial way so that the iBeacon protocol can communicate with the device. There are numerous useful apps available for iOS devices. You can use a brand app or any other third-party app to communicate with this device. For example, you can use Launch Here, Proximitask or BeHere apps for iOS devices.
10> iBeacon for Android
These devices also require a relevant app for iBeacon protocol communication with Android devices. If the beacon device uses the Eddystone protocol, you don’t need to install any app. However, the iBeacon protocol requires an app. You can use different brand apps or third party app to communicate with beacon devices. It is important that there are several apps that are multifunctional. It means, they can communicate with different types of beacon protocols such as iBeacon & Eddystone Scanner. This app is compatible with Eddystone, and AltBeacons as well.
How does iBeacon technology affect our life?
Tumblr media

Moreover, this technology provides the most unique and interesting way to interact with customers. It is interesting that 50% of the top 100 brands are already utilizing this technology for marketing in their stores. So this technology will really affect our lives.
Use cases and Applications of the iBeacon
iBeacon technology plays a significant role in marketing strategies. Here are different use cases and applications of this technology:
Tracking: Every business wants to know the satisfaction level of their customers. This technology works for the same. You can analyze collected data related to the customers. So when a user enters the store, this device sends notification according to the need of the customers.
Automation: Automation is another most important benefit of iBeacon. Imagine: a person who has your mobile app in his cellphone enters your store and the door automatically opens! It is the best use case of this technology.
Cost-Effectiveness: These devices are really cost-efficient as compared to NFC. NFC has a 0.2 meters range but iBeacon covers up to 50 meters area. Moreover, the hardware of this device is cheaper as compared to NFCs.
Micro Location: GPS is extremely useful for the best navigation and tracking, however, it is not beneficial for the interior of the buildings. On the other hand, the micro-location geofencing of iBeacon is really good for navigation inside any building.
How much energy does an iBeacon consume?
Beacons are basically standalone devices that utilize batteries for working. So it is extremely important to have an idea about iBeacon energy consumption. So a question arises here how long a beacon works until its battery leaves functioning. Well, as we have already mentioned that these devices work on Bluetooth Low Energy or BLE so they don’t consume much energy.
Roughly, an average beacon can work at least an entire year and don’t require battery replacement. Moreover, battery life also depends on the type of beacon. For example, H1 – Keychain beacon and M1- Ultra ThinBeacon offered by MOKO Smart with 16-month battery life.
How secure is the iBeacon protocol?
There is a question mark at the security of the iBeacon protocol. So you should keep in mind that this protocol doesn’t provide any security at all. Basically, it is extremely easy to scan your beacon ids. Therefore, if you find out UUID, Major, and Minor strings or ids, you can simply clone that beacon, by assigning its current parameters to another beacon device or emulate that by utilizing your smartphone. Although all smartphones are not capable to emulate beacons, this number will be increased in the future.
It would be much better not to use iBeacon technology to exchange sensitive data. Let’s understand the security of this device by taking a hypothetical situation. Let say, you use this device to open your gate. Someone from your authorized staff scans his or her beacon to come in or out. As you know the beacon range is approximately 30 meters on average, so it means an offender can easily create a beacon key identical to the original one by sitting somewhere besides your home or office. So by using that key, he can open the door.
You might be thinking that how does the offender get beacon ids? It’s not a big deal. There are different apps available that give you this functionality. These applications give all of the beacon’s information in a specific range.
How to protect iBeacon Security?
Is there any way to protect iBeacon security? Well, beacon technology is getting advanced day by day. Now different companies are intending to secure beacons with passwords so no hijacker can send notifications to the customers. Still, we recommend you not to use beacons for your sensitive information. Moreover, you should purchase this device from a trustworthy seller such as MOKO Smart.
