BTSerial1 is a hobbyist friendly Bluetooth module that is easy to incorporate into projects. It is on a wide DIP package that can be easily soldered into a through-hole PCB. It has 10 general purpose I/Os that is controllable by the local serial port or remotely via Bluetooth. Using as pair, the 2 controllers can be made into a wireless UART cable replacement. Like a wireless link between a PC to a remote device or a mobile robot.

The controller may also be used as a wireless communications adapter to a Bluetooth cellular phone. Using the standard Serial Port Profile (SPP), the controller can remote access the phone’s AT-commands via Bluetooth. You now have complete wireless control of the phone and able to send/receive SMS, make modem calls and access the address book.
