`pc-ble-driver` provides C/C++ libraries for Bluetooth Low Energy nRF5 SoftDevice serialization.
## Overview
## Overview
`pc-ble-driver` consists of a set of static and shared libraries that provide [SoftDevice](http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.softdevices52/dita/nrf52/softdevices.html?cp=2_3) functionality to the application via serial port communication with an nRF5 connectivity chip running the SoftDevice and connectivity software, included as a single .hex file [here](./hex/). For more information on SoftDevice serialiation see [Serialization](http://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/com.nordic.infocenter.sdk5.v13.0.0/lib_serialization.html?cp=4_0_0_3_33).

The C/C++ libraries can be interfaced with directly, but are also provided as higher-level bindings that ease development at the cost of less fine control (acceptable in most cases):

Where the 'Application chip' is just generic hardware (i.e. a Windows, OS X or Linux device), although it could also be an Arduino or Raspberry Pi for example.
