# Connect to a remote sensing service over Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE).  This

# the prints incoming data to the console until the connection breaks.

#
#  pip3 install adafruit-blinka-bleio
#  pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-ble

# ----------------------------------------------------------------
# Import the Adafruit Bluetooth library, part of Blinka.  Technical reference:
