Is it possible to include a BT detection to switch profiles? RPi3 has a build BT which is not used (at least in my configuration) by the MagicMirror. It would be great if personal stuff like the calender could be switched depending on the BT device (Smartphone, Smartwatch, Fitnesstracker, …) which is near by.
I was searching for identification via BT on the RPi and this is what I have found so far:
“…present/absent can be done with very little power consumption on rPi and iPhone. Install bluetooth dongle on rPi as: (sudo aptitude install bluetooth bluez-utils bluez-compat). Figure out mac of your phone device by making it searchable and then do (hcitool scan) on rPi. Then connect to your device (make sure its searchable) as: sudo bluez-simple-agent hci0 mac_of_your_device and say yes on both sides. Then sudo bluez-test-device trusted mac_of_your_device. Now they both “know” each other. Then do sudo hcitool name mac_of_your_device in your favourite script to figure out if the iphone is nearby. This will not create a connection - but just say hi to it. If it returns a name, phone is nearby. If it returns nothing - phone is not nearby or bluetooth is switched off. Compared to creating connections or other distance computation methods out there - this method conserves battery on both sides and keeps airwave pollution to a minimum.” (found here)
and this would be even better with distance sensing:
