I am looking to turn my phone into a wireless microphone.
This requires making a two part program. The first program would use the sound input from the microphone on my smartphone and sends it via bluetooth to my computer. The second program would be on my computer and treat the bluetooth sound source as a microphone.
I know this is possible because there is a program which does this and works (http://www.wirelessorange.com/womic/install.html) however this undesirable steps like putting my windows computer into test mode to install a driver.
It seems like it should be easier as bluetooth is commonly used to stream audio and bluetooth microphones (ie headsets) are not uncommon. I am familiar with python so I'd like write the program in this language, but a reasonable internet search has not led me to anything useful yet.
I am specifically looking for guidance on two things. 1) Getting audio from a bluetooth stream 2) Telling the windows computer that the audio stream is coming from a microphone.
Have you done any network programming before? From what I've read bluetooth comm is a "simple" a client/server setup. So basically you will:
I know this doesn't answer your question exactly, but it was just too large for a comment :). Good luck. I will try along when I get home, but I have to dig up my bluetooth dongle.
