There will also be a binary sensor for the `bluetooth_state` that will represent whether or not bluetooth is turned on for the device. This sensor will update anytime the state of bluetooth changes.

A BLE Transmitter sensor allows your device to transmit a BLE iBeacon. The iBeacon is capable of being detected by the [iBeacon integration](https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/ibeacon). This sensor can also be useful in conjunction with projects like [roomassistant](https://www.room-assistant.io/) and [esp32-mqtt-room ](https://jptrsn.github.io/ESP32-mqtt-room/) to allow room level tracking. The current transmitting ID (UUID-Major-Minor) is reported as an attribute that can be copied for use with these systems.

:::caution
This sensor can impact battery life, particularly if used wih Transmit Power set to High. The iBeacon is transmitted every second (low latency to save battery, but sufficient for room presence).
