As some people on this list know, I am a volunteer fireman.
One of the problems with bush fires is the need to get into,
and out of the fire station quickly. Sometimes the firemen
leave so fast that no-one is aware that they are at the fire
ground. Currently I am trying to write a program that will
register the firemen's mobile phones if they are near, or in
the vicinity of the fire station. What I would like to know
is; has anybody tried scripting the bluetooth connection to
check what is available in the vicinity of their computer?
I'd recommend looking at Salling Clicker
<http://www.salling.com/>. It's very scriptable and can "sense"
a bluetooth phone in the vicinity of its computer. Unfortunately
it costs a bit of money.
The problem I see with what you're trying to do is the limited
range of bluetooth.
