Fetching the stored sensor data

Hi,

I wanted to use mbient env or C sensors to log sensor data and save it in the board memory.
My intent is to fetch this data over to a BLE bridge and from there to some other system.

Now , my question is how do we connect and fetch this saved data from the boards?

Any direction on this regard would be of much help.

As of today, I could just connect to the sensor board in two ways;
- Using the metaware Android API
- Using the standard Android BLE library and read the BLE advertisement.

    The MetaBase app already retrieves log data from the boards and can send it to other machines via email, google drive, dropbox, etc..

    Thanks Eric for the prompt reply,

    I was looking beyond the Metabase App, say we want to connect the sensors to a bluetooth(BLE compatiable) bridge rather than work it out from the app. 
    See , we will require to connect to multiple of these sensors and further send across the data over to a server , probably via a socket connection, a web service post  where the system will be automated and in a bulk processing manner.


    Hope I have been able to express my views,

    Regards,
    Dush.

    If your bridge runs Android, use the Android API.  If it's running a more traditional Linux build (Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian, etc.), you can use the C++ API with BlueZ to communicate with the boards.
