Hello,

Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package btscanner, which is
part of the net section, and maintained by Uwe Hermann
<uwe at debian.org>. 

This package contains : ncurses-based scanner for Bluetooth devices.

btscanner is a tool designed specifically to extract as much information
as possible from a Bluetooth device without the requirement to pair. A
detailed information screen extracts HCI and SDP information, and
maintains an open connection to monitor the RSSI and link quality.
btscanner is based on the BlueZ Bluetooth stack, which is included with
recent Linux kernels, and the BlueZ toolset. btscanner also contains a
complete listing of the IEEE OUI numbers and class lookup tables. Using
the information gathered from these sources it is possible to make
educated guesses as to the host device type.
