Android Question nRF Beacon

[aaronk]

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone knows if the nRF Beacon as shown here: http://www.nordicsemi.com/eng/Products/nRFready-Demo-Apps/nRF-Beacon-App

is that the same as Bluetooth LE as shown here: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/bluetooth-low-energy-ble-library.31584/

Trying to work out if I can use IAS 'Instant alert service' as I have a product that uses then Nordic NRF51822 and I need to receive data from it. www.nordicsemi.com

Anyone know if the Bluetooth LE lib will work or is it something else I need to use ?

I think it should, by looking at the Nordic bluetooth kit, it has the same specs as any other regular LE Bluetooth. I think it should work.
