This project intends to implement a proximity data gathering system for the Android cellphone. This system is able to be extended to provide information for a variety of applications. As a demonstration of the system's versatility, the project's example application uses the system for basic social networking and time management scheduling. Bluetooth was selected as the wireless data harvesting method because of its presence in many new technologies including most cellular telephones. Bluetooth also has the advantage of being short range which will aid in restricting detections to a close proximity
