<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nNew to the ESP32?<\/strong> Start here: Getting Started with the ESP32 Development Board<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Table of Contents<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n The ESP32 comes not only with Wi-Fi but also with Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE).<\/p>\n\n\n Bluetooth Low Energy, BLE for short, is a power-conserving variant of Bluetooth. BLE\u2019s primary application is short-distance transmission of small amounts of data (low bandwidth). Unlike Bluetooth which is always on, BLE remains in sleep mode constantly except for when a connection is initiated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This makes it consume very little power. BLE consumes approximately 100x less power than Bluetooth (depending on the use case). You can check the main differences between Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With Bluetooth Low Energy, there are two types of devices: the server (also called peripheral) and the client. The ESP32 can act either as a client or as a server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The server advertises its existence, so it can be found by other devices and contains data that the client can read. The client scans the nearby devices, and when it finds the server it is looking for, it establishes a connection and listens for incoming data. This is called point-to-point communication and this is the communication mode we’ll use with the ESP32.<\/p>\n\n\n GATT stands for Generic Attributes and it defines a hierarchical data structure that is exposed to connected BLE devices. This means that GATT defines the way that two BLE devices send and receive standard messages. Understanding this hierarchy is important because it will make it easier to understand how to use BLE with the ESP32.<\/p>\n\n\n For a more in-depth introduction to BLE with the ESP32, read the following guide: Getting Started with ESP32 Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) on Arduino IDE<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Each service, characteristic, and descriptor have a UUID (Universally Unique Identifier). A UUID is a unique 128-bit (16 bytes) number. For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are shortened default UUIDs for all types, services, and profiles specified in the SIG (Bluetooth Special Interest Group)<\/a>. We’ll use the default UUIDs for the Environmental Sensing Service, and for the temperature, humidity, and pressure characteristics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If your application needs its own UUID, you can generate it using this UUID generator website<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In summary, the UUID is used for uniquely identifying information. For example, it can identify a particular service provided by a Bluetooth device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In our example, we’ll create an Environmental Sensing Service<\/em> with three characteristics<\/em>. One for the temperature, another for the humidity, and another for the pressure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The actual temperature, humidity, and pressure readings are saved on the value <\/em>under their characteristics<\/em>. Each characteristic has the notify <\/em>property so that it notifies the client whenever the values change.<\/p>\n\n\n We’re going to use the default UUIDs for the Environmental Sensing Profile and corresponding characteristics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you go to this page<\/a> and open the Assigned Numbers Document (PDF)<\/a>, you’ll find all the default assigned UUID numbers. If you search for the Environmental Sensing Service<\/em>, you’ll find all the permitted characteristics that you can use with that service. You can see that it supports, temperature, humidity, and pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n There’s a table with the UUIDs for all services. You can see that the UUID for the Environmental Sensing service is 0x181A<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n Then, search for the temperature, humidity, and pressure characteristics UUIDs. You’ll find a table with the values for all characteristics. The UUIDs for the temperature, humidity, and pressure are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n To check if the ESP32 BLE Server was created properly and receive temperature, humidity, and pressure notifications, we’ll use an app on the smartphone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Most modern smartphones should have BLE capabilities. You can search for your smartphone specifications to check if it has BLE or not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Note<\/strong>: the smartphone can act as a client or as a server. In this case, it will be the client that connects to the ESP32 BLE server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For our tests, we\u2019ll be using a free app called nRF Connect for Mobile from Nordic. It works on Android (Google Play Store)<\/a> and iOS (App Store)<\/a>. Go to Google Play Store or App Store, search for \u201cnRF Connect for Mobile” and install the app.<\/p>\n\n\n For this tutorial, you’ll need the following parts:<\/p>\n\n\n\n For this example, we\u2019ll use a BME280 sensor, but you can easily modify the code to use any other sensor you\u2019re familiar with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For this particular example, we’ll use a BME280 sensor. So, you need to wire a BME280 sensor to your ESP32. You can also use any other sensor you’re familiar with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019re going to use I2C communication with the BME280 sensor module. For that, wire the sensor to the default ESP32 SCL (GPIO 22<\/span>) and SDA (GPIO 21<\/span>) pins, as shown in the following schematic diagram.<\/p>\n\n\n Recommended reading: ESP32 Pinout Reference: Which GPIO pins should you use?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n We’ll program the ESP32 using Arduino IDE. So, you need to have the ESP32 boards installed on the IDE. Follow the next tutorial if you haven’t already:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here are the steps to create an ESP32 BLE peripheral with an Environmental Sensing BLE service with temperature, humidity, and pressure, characteristics:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Copy the following code to the Arduino IDE and upload it to your board.<\/p>\n\n\n View raw code<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Continue reading to learn how the code works or skip to the Demonstration <\/a>section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You start by importing the required libraries: the libraries to use BLE and the libraries to interface with the BME280 sensor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the following line, you can define the name of your BLE device. We’ll call it ESP32_BME2820<\/strong>, but you can call it any other name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We\u2019re using default UUIDs for services and characteristics already defined in the SIG (Bluetooth Special Interest Group). To report temperature, humidity, and pressure there\u2019s a service called Environmental Sensing<\/em> that supports temperature, humidity, and pressure characteristics as we’ve seen previously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can find all the default UUIDs for profiles and characteristics in the following document: https:\/\/www.bluetooth.com\/specifications\/assigned-numbers\/<\/a> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n We create an Environmental Sensing Service on the following line:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then, we create the temperature characteristic as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n This line of code is creating a BLE characteristic named temperatureCharacteristic<\/span> with a UUID of 0x2A6E<\/span> (representing the “Temperature” characteristic) and configuring it to support notifications (PROPERTY_NOTIFY<\/span>) – this will allow other BLE devices to subscribe to and receive notifications when the temperature value changes on the ESP32.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then, we create a descriptor for the temperature characteristic. A descriptor provides additional information about a characteristic and how it should be accessed or interpreted. Our descriptor has the default UUID 0x2902<\/strong> and it represents the “Client Characteristic Configuration” descriptor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The “Client Characteristic Configuration” descriptor, with UUID 0x2902<\/strong><\/span>, is commonly used in BLE to configure how notifications and indications are handled by the client (usually a central device like a smartphone) when it subscribes to a characteristic’s notifications. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This descriptor allows the client to configure how it wants to receive updates (e.g., notifications) from the associated characteristic, giving more control over the communication between the ESP32 and the connected BLE devices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We proceed in a similar way to create the temperature and pressure characteristics and corresponding descriptors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The following line creates an Adafruit_BME280<\/span> object to refer to the sensor called bme<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The initBME()<\/span> function initializes the sensor. It will be called later in the setup()<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Learn more about the BME280 sensor: ESP32 with BME280 Sensor using Arduino IDE (Pressure, Temperature, Humidity)<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then, we need to set up callback functions for when the BLE device connects (onConnect<\/span>) or disconnects (onDisconnect<\/span>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n We create a boolean variable called deviceConnected<\/span> that keeps track of whether a Bluetooth device is currently connected to the ESP32.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The onConnect<\/span> function changes the deviceConnected<\/span> variable to true<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And the onDisconnect<\/span>, changes it to false<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the setup()<\/span>, start the serial port at a baud rate of 115200:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Initialize the BME280 sensor by calling the initBME()<\/span> function we created previously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Create a new BLE device with the BLE server name you\u2019ve defined earlier:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Set the BLE device as a server and assign the callback functions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Continuing with the setup()<\/span>, start a BLE service with the service UUID defined earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then, create the temperature, humidity, and pressure BLE characteristics using the UUIDs you defined earlier and assign the corresponding descriptors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Finally, you start the service, and the server begins the advertising so other devices can find it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The loop()<\/span> function is fairly straightforward. You constantly check if the device is connected or not. If it\u2019s connected, it reads the current temperature, humidity, and pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then, convert the readings to uint16_t format (unsigned 16-bit integer), a suitable format to use in BLE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The following two lines update the current characteristic value (using .setValue()<\/span>) and send it to the connected client (using .notify()<\/span>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are also three lines to print the temperature in the Serial Monitor for debugging purposes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sending the humidity and pressure uses the same process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The delay function waits 10 seconds between readings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Upload the code to your board. After uploading, open the Serial Monitor, and restart the ESP32 by pressing the RST\/EN button. You should get a similar message in the Serial Monitor.<\/p>\n\n\n This means everything is working as expected and the ESP32 is waiting for a BLE client to connect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then, go to your smartphone, open the nRF Connect app from Nordic, and start scanning for new devices. You should find a device called ESP32_BME280<\/strong>\u2014this is the BLE server name you defined earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n Connect to it. You\u2019ll see that it displays the Environmental Sensing service with the temperature, humidity, and pressure characteristics. Click on the arrows to activate the notifications.<\/p>\n\n\n Then, click on the second icon at the left to change the format. You can change to unsigned int for all characteristics. You\u2019ll start seeing the temperature, humidity, and pressure values being reported every 10 seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n You should also get the readings on the Serial Monitor.<\/p>\n\n\n Congratulations! You’ve successfully created an ESP32 BLE Peripheral that advertises the Environmental Sensing Service. Now, you can develop an app, or program another ESP32 to interface with the ESP32 BLE device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this tutorial, you learned how to create a BLE device with the ESP32 with the default UUIDs defined by the SIG. As an example, we created an Environmental Sensing Service with temperature, humidity, and pressure characteristics. The Environmental Sensing Service also supports many other characteristics. So, you can easily modify this project to work with other sensors. Or you can also create a different Service to advertise other types of characteristics\u2014the workflow is the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We hope you found this tutorial useful and that it has helped you understand more about BLE protocol with the ESP32.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We have other BLE and Bluetooth Classic tutorials that you may find useful:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Learn more about the ESP32 with our resources:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thanks for reading.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In this guide, you’ll learn how to set up the ESP32 as a BLE Peripheral (or BLE Server) with an Environmental Sensing Service.
