Bonrix Android Bluetooth to WIFI Weight Streamer for Cloud POS And ERP
🚀 Introducing Bonrix Bluetooth-to-WiFi Weigh Scale Bridge App – Making Every Weighing Scale Web-Ready!
In today’s rapidly evolving digital world, businesses are moving their POS, ERP, and operational systems to cloud-based and browser-based solutions. But one limitation still remains — web browsers cannot directly communicate with Bluetooth weighing scales.
💡 Our Android Bridge App Converts Any Bluetooth Weighing Scale Into a WiFi/WebSocket Enabled Smart Scale
Using a simple Android device, our app reads weight from a *Bluetooth Weigh Scale* and converts it into a *WebSocket data stream* accessible over WiFi. This makes the weight instantly available to:
✔ Cloud POS systems
✔ ERP software
✔ Billing counters
✔ Inventory management dashboards
✔ Weighbridge systems
✔ Laboratory & calibration apps
✔ Remote monitoring tools
🌐 Why This Solution Is a Game-Changer?
1️⃣ Browser-Friendly WebSocket Output
Since browsers don’t allow direct Bluetooth access, WebSocket becomes the perfect bridge. Any web-based application can subscribe to the real-time weight feed instantly.
2️⃣ Multi-Device Access for the Same Scale
Traditional Bluetooth scales connect to only one device. Our WebSocket approach allows *multiple PCs, dashboards, and cloud services* to read the weight simultaneously.
3️⃣ Zero Hardware Investment
No need to purchase costly Bluetooth-to-WiFi converters. Just install our app on any low-cost Android phone/tablet and you are ready to go.
4️⃣ LAN + Cloud Compatible
Weight data becomes available across your LAN, and optionally, can be pushed to a cloud server for logging, analytics, and monitoring.
5️⃣ Perfect for Real-World Business Scenarios
Many industries rely on accurate, repeatable, and real-time weight readings. Our solution fits naturally into such workflows.
🏬 Practical Use Cases Across Industries
🔹 Fruit & Vegetable Stores – Frequent weighing during checkout, auto billing
🔹 Gold & Jewellery Shops – Precision weight capture with audit records
🔹 Laboratories – Calibration, test logs, and scientific measurements
🔹 Child Hospitals & Clinics – Pediatric weight readings shared with EMR
🔹 Warehouses – Weight-based inward/outward stock verification
🔹 Manufacturing Lines – Continuous real-time monitoring for quality control
🔹 Pharmaceutical Packaging – Weight checks for compliance
🔹 Retail Chains – Multi-counter POS using a single scale
🔹 Weighbridge / Truck Weighing – Distributed monitoring for heavy vehicles
🔹 Agriculture Procurement – Transparent digital weighing for farmers

Bonrix Android Bluetooth-to-WiFi Weight Streamer for Cloud POS & ERP Integration
Overview
Developed by Bonrix Software Systems (Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India), this Android utility app serves as a real-time data bridge between Bluetooth-enabled weighing scales and modern web ecosystems. It captures live weight readings and broadcasts them as a WebSocket stream over Wi-Fi—enabling effortless connectivity with cloud POS, ERP, inventory dashboards, and enterprise platforms.
In effect, it upgrades any standard Bluetooth scale into a smart, network-accessible weighing endpoint—no external adapters, gateways, or hardware modifications required.
How It Works
The app establishes a Bluetooth connection with the scale, reads incoming weight data (typically via SPP/serial protocol), and instantly re-streams it through a lightweight WebSocket server hosted on the Android device’s local Wi-Fi interface.
Authorized web applications—running in browsers or as progressive web apps—can then subscribe to this stream and receive continuous, low-latency weight updates, eliminating the need for browser-native Bluetooth support.
Core Advantages
-
Bypasses Browser Bluetooth Restrictions
Modern browsers restrict direct Bluetooth access for security. WebSocket—a universally supported web standard—provides a secure and reliable alternative for real-time scale integration. -
True Multi-User Access
Unlike Bluetooth’s 1:1 pairing limitation, the WebSocket stream supports unlimited concurrent subscribers—enabling simultaneous use by front-desk staff, back-office systems, and remote monitoring tools. -
Zero-Cost Hardware Retrofit
Leverage existing Android smartphones or tablets as edge bridges—no investment in proprietary Bluetooth-to-WiFi converters or industrial gateways. -
Hybrid Deployment Flexibility
Operate entirely on-premise over LAN, or forward streams to cloud services (e.g., via MQTT bridge or REST webhook) for remote dashboards and centralized analytics. -
Developer-Friendly Integration
With native WebSocket support in JavaScript, Python, Node.js, and more, integration into existing web applications typically takes minutes—not days.
Industry-Specific Applications
1. Retail & Point-of-Sale (POS)
- Fresh Produce Counters: Weigh → auto-calculate price → update inventory—across multiple checkout lanes from one scale.
- Jewellery & Bullion Retailers: Capture milligram-precision weights; auto-log transactions to CRM, generate tamper-proof digital receipts.
2. Healthcare & Wellness
- Stream pediatric or patient weights directly into EMR/EHR systems, clinic dashboards, and telehealth platforms—ensuring data consistency and reducing entry errors.
3. Logistics & Warehousing
- Automate stock-in/stock-out workflows by triggering inventory updates the moment goods are weighed.
- For weighbridges: synchronize gross/tare/net weights with invoicing, GST/e-waybill systems, and compliance logs in real time.
4. Calibration & Testing Labs
- Feed calibration test results directly into LIMS or certificate-generation tools—ensuring auditability and eliminating manual transcription risks.
5. Agri-Cooperatives & Procurement Centers
- During farmer produce intake, instantly update central procurement ledgers, payment calculations, and quality grading systems as each batch is weighed.
6. Manufacturing & Process Control
- Enable closed-loop batch formulation: weigh raw materials → verify against recipe → log consumption in MES/ERP for traceability and waste monitoring.
7. Food Service & QSRs
- Enforce portion control standards by streaming ingredient weights to kitchen display systems (KDS) and inventory modules—reducing over-portioning and spoilage.
Technical Highlights
- Cross-Platform Ready: Any WebSocket-capable client (web, mobile, desktop) can consume the stream.
- Scalable Architecture: Deploy one bridge per scale—or scale across warehouses, branches, or regions.
- Hardware Agnostic: Compatible with most serial-over-Bluetooth scales (RS232/SPP profile).
- Resilient Operation: Built-in data queuing and replay capabilities handle brief network outages gracefully.
Real-World Implementation
In a supermarket’s fresh produce section, a Bluetooth scale is paired with a wall-mounted Android tablet running the Bonrix Bridge app. The store’s cloud POS (accessed via browser) connects to ws://[tablet-ip]:8080/weight and displays live weight and pricing.
Simultaneously, the inventory module deducts stock, the manager’s analytics dashboard logs throughput, and the cloud backup service archives the transaction—all from a single weighing event, zero manual intervention.
Suitable For
- Grocery Chains & Hypermarkets
- Gold & Diamond Retailers
- Hospitals, Clinics & Diagnostic Centers
- Courier & Freight Operators
- 3PL Warehouses & Distribution Hubs
- Farm Producer Companies (FPCs)
- Pharma & Chemical Manufacturers
- Quick-Service Restaurants & Cloud Kitchens
- NABL-Accredited Calibration Labs
Bonrix’s solution future-proofs legacy weighing infrastructure—turning isolated devices into intelligent data sources that power automation, accuracy, and operational transparency across the enterprise.
