bluelock.pl Description

Lock a screen once a bluetooth device's RSSI increases bluelock.pl is a Perl script designed to lock a display or terminal once a Bluetooth device (like a cell phone) is out of range. The script queries the RSSI (signal strength) of a Bluetooth device. Once the RSSI passes above a certain threshold a timer is started, and once the timer expires a locking program is run.Usage: bluelock.pl BDADDR Requirements: · Perl What's New in This Release: · Try adding a bit more sleeping to let rfcomm connect successfully, and don't count the connection time against the counter. · Handle rfcomm execution/reaping better. · Use 'hci0' instead of 'bluelock0' for default rfcomm/hci device name.
