JJonas Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 (edited) Got a problem with students having their mobile phones on while in school. A quick bluetooth search revealed quite a lot of discoverable devices. Is there an bluetooth radar app that will allow me to locate a bluetooth device based on signal strength?

cromertech Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Bluetooth doesn't really work like that. You can get a rough idea with signal strengths I think but there is no tracking like app available afaik. Would be cool I admit to track the little blighters down like this but I don't think it's possible
JJonas Posted March 7, 2011 Author Posted March 7, 2011 are there any technological solutions to tracing mobile phones in the classroom? Bonus points if it looks like a Ghostbusters PKE meter!
LeMarchand Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 What would happen if you tried sending a text file called "TURN YOUR PHONE OFF YOU 'ORRIBLE LITTLE BLIGHTER" to the visible devices?
JJonas Posted March 7, 2011 Author Posted March 7, 2011 probably nothing at all. Except they would all know the Bluetooth name of my phone.
plexer Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Get a bluetooth dongle for your pc and call your pc Headmaster then send it from there Ben 1
