摘要：
A Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP) 2.0 application, BlueAware that can run passively in the background on many of today's Bluetooth phones is discussed. The social-scanning application capitalizes on a unique Bluetooth identifier (BTID) number that mobile phones with Bluetooth personal-area-network capabilities transmit when queried. A variation on BlueAware called BlueDar, transmits detected BTID to the serendipity server over an 802.11b wireless network by using a Bluetooth beacon that incorporates a class 1 Bluetooth chipset controlled by an XPort Web server. When a user turns on a BlueAware-equipped phone, the application begins running in the background automatically, altering the user to its presence with a dialog box at start-up.
