Ok, for the requesters….
EDIT: The code below still works, but I’ve put it into a git repo for those who are interested…
https://github.com/NathanielWaggoner/GoogleGlassBlutooth
Here is my Bluetooth Host/Client code. It’s not perfect – You’re going to need some patience, and there are some bugs on reconnection and such, but it does work. I’ve been sending data up to Glass From the Hand Held and driving UI updates (publishing live cards, updating live cards etc…) for about three days using this now.
