Chapter 5. Obexsender
Obexsender is one of the built-in applications in Access Server. It is dedicated to Bluetooth prox-
imity marketing, content distribution, location based services, and much more. Access Server
plus Obexsender provide the user with a ready platform to start content distribution including
all the necessary Bluetooth functions from discovering the devices to transmitting the content.
The user needs to only focus on what, when, and to whom to send the content - rest is taken
care of by Access Server and Obexsender.
The figure below illustrates a simplified Obexsender network:
