ubertooth

Project Ubertooth is an open source wireless development platform suitable for Bluetooth experimentation. This package contains everything necessary to use the hardware dongle.

Ubertooth is capable of sniffing BLE (Bluetooth Smart) connections and it also has some ability to sniff some data from Basic Rate (BR) Bluetooth Classic connections.

In addition to the Bluetooth specific capabilities, there is also a simple spectrum analyzer for the 2.4 GHz band included (ubertooth-specan-ui) which can be used to also observe other things in this frequency band.
