Scanning while device is invisible to other devices

Postby Ceranthor » Wed Sep 14, 2022 8:15 am

Hi,
I need to create bluetooth scan as the part of the system for esp32 which will scan nearby devices and return list of the devices with the specific name while remaining invisible for phones and laptops. Is it even possible to make esp invisible for other device while scanning?
Greetings

Hi i do not have any experience in bluetooth - I was using only mesh. My goal is to scan the nearby area every 5 minutes and search for device with specific name and lated send that list via mesh to root device. Do you have any advice where to start?
