Blueproximity Documentation Status Build Status

TODOs until reaching usable state

This software helps you add a little more security to your desktop. It does so by detecting one of your bluetooth devices, most likely your mobile phone, and keeping track of its distance.

If you move away from your computer and the distance is above a certain level (no measurement in meters is possible) for a given time, it automatically locks your desktop (or starts any other shell command you want). See end of this file for interesting commands.

Once away your computer awaits its master back - if you are nearer than a given level for a set time your computer unlocks magically without any interaction (or starts any other shell command you want).

See the doc/ directory or the website which both contain a manual with screenshots.

Please note that there might still some bugs, use the sourceforge site to keep track of them or tell me about new ones not mentioned there. Please read the whole manual - it's short enough, hopefully easy understandable and hey - it even got some pretty pictures in there too :-)
