Hardware Hacking with Bluetooth Low Energy - Building Smart Devices Without Programming

Explore hardware hacking possibilities with Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) in this 35-minute conference talk from the 38th Chaos Communication Congress (38C3). Learn how to remote-control and build various connected devices like soap bubble makers, water boilers, and door locks without programming knowledge. Discover the fundamentals of Bluetooth Low Energy technology and understand how to implement it using simple configuration instead of raw code. Follow along with practical demonstrations of the BLEnky project, which enables quick development of BLE-enabled devices. Watch live hacking demonstrations of everyday gadgets being transformed into smart devices, and explore numerous real-world project examples. Presented by Daniel Dakhno, this talk bridges the gap between complex BLE implementation and accessible hardware hacking for makers of all skill levels.
