The document discusses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and iBeacons. It provides an overview of BLE, how it differs from classic Bluetooth, and how it can be implemented in iOS apps using CoreBluetooth. It then explains what iBeacons are, how they work by broadcasting UUID, major and minor values, and how they can be used for proximity-based notifications and interactions in apps. It also discusses how a Raspberry Pi can be turned into an iBeacon transmitter using BLE hardware and open source software.
