Description-en: 2.4 GHz wireless development platform for Bluetooth experimentation
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.
