Bluetooth Proxy
1. Prerequisite:
To add Bluetooth devices in Home Assistant (HA), we need to use an ESP32 Bluetooth proxy. By configuring the ESP32 with ESPHome, we can turn it into a Bluetooth proxy, allowing it to transmit data from Bluetooth devices to Home Assistant for remote reception and control.
The steps to add a Bluetooth proxy in HA can be found in this video:https://youtu.be/CjpPdwK_ttg?si=qrtO0ekG3L44PQ8l
2. Add ESP32 Bluetooth proxy：
Once the ESP32 Bluetooth proxy is ready, please connect it to the same local network as the ISG. Next, open the ISG's Home Assistant (HA) page. Click on Settings - Devices & services.
Under the "Discovered " category, you will find a device named "esp32s3_ble_proxy ESPHome" that has been detected. Click the "Add" button to complete the device addition process.
