Collecting The Data

Today Jon and I collected our data. We used a bluetooth adapter and stood in the middle of the mall and waited for people to walk past who had bluetooth devices turned on. When someone walked past the adapter picked up the device's name, the time it was picked up, the type of device it was and gave each one an individual ID. We managed to pick up 400 devices in just an hour and then exported it as an XML file which we can then parse.
