SDK for iOS Overview Version 1.2HOW IT WORKS NOMi SDK The NOMi SDK for iOS is integrated to a branded apps and sends lightweight, secure (HTTPS) events to the NOMi Cloud for processing.Bluetooth Low Energy Beacons When a mobile device with a mobile app powered by the NOMi SDK interacts with a beacon, the NOMi SDK for iOS may initiate context-based push notification.Cloud-based Dashboard Store managers and stakeholders then securely access reports through a standard web browser with app usage overlays.ABLUETOOTH LE HARDWARE You may want to turn beacons on and off to simulate enter and exit events during your tests. To turn on:
Remove pull tab (highlighted) from beacon. Save pull tab to disable beacon in the future. To turn off:
Re-insert pull tab to same slot until fully in.
Note: In order to conserve battery life, beacons are shipped in “off” mode and require activation upon receipt. There is a delay between start and enter events happening in the application (up to 10 minutes) - this is a result of IOS interactions!!!A
SDK for iOS Overview Version 1.2INSTALLATION Installing the NOMi Beacon SDK for iOS is easy and simple. After it has been configured in your application, the dashboard statistics will include an overlay of app usage. To get the NOMi SDK for iOS up and running an iOS application, follow these two simple steps: 1.Add NOMi headers and libraries to your projectDownload the NOMi Beacon SDK Framework (NomiBeaconSDK.Framework) for iOS, add it to your project directory, and add it to your application target’s linked libraries. The NOMi Beacon SDK for iOS uses the CoreLocation and CoreData frameworks, so you will need to add the following to your application target’s linked libraries: CoreLocation.framework CoreData.framework 2.Initialize the NOMi engineTo initialize the engine, import the NomiBeaconSDK.h header, implement the NomiBeaconManagerDelegate protocol, and initialize the NomiBeaconManager with your delegate and NOMi App ID: #import <NomiBeaconSDK/NomiBeaconSDK.h>
@interface ViewController () <NomiBeaconManagerDelegate> !@end … !- (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad];
!// Initialize Nomi SDK
NomiBeaconManager *beaconManager = [NomiBeaconManager sharedInstance]; [beaconManager setDelegate:self];
// Use the App ID supplied to you by Nomi for this application [beaconManager startBeaconMonitoringWithAppID:@"<Your Nomi App ID>" authKey:@"<Your Nomi API Key>"];
SDK for iOS Overview Version 1.2!// Recommended: You can submit user-specific data from your app to 
// Nomi to have more granular queries on your tracked data
// Any data can be submitted but suggested
// * user_id (email, or other unique user identifier) // * name
// * dob (date of birth)
// * gender
NSDictionary *userInfo = @{ @"user_id" : @“nomi@suburban.com”, @"name": @"Nomi", @"dob": @"10/22/13", @"gender": @"male" }; 
[beaconManager submitUserInfo:userInfo]; } !REGISTERING FOR EVENTS To get the most of the NOMi Beacon SDK, you’ll want to take advantage of the callbacks provided by the NomiBeaconManagerDelegate. Simply adopt the NomiBeaconManagerDelegate protocol and implement any of the callbacks you are interested in receiving. Entering and Exiting a Location You will receive these callbacks when entering or exiting the range of Nomi’s beacon advertisements. These callbacks will fire even if the app is in the background or not running, causing the app to wake up and allowing for a short period of processing time. A common use might be to fire a local notification to say “Welcome” or “Farewell”. The exit callback also includes the amount of time spent within the region. Along with the message, comes data about the location as well as the user’s history with the location. #import <NomiBeaconSDK/NomiBeaconSDK.h> @interface ViewController () <NomiBeaconManagerDelegate> !@end

{ UILocalNotification *notification = [[UILocalNotification alloc] init]; notification.alertBody = @"Farewell"; notification.soundName = UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName; [[UIApplication sharedApplication] presentLocalNotificationNow:notification]; } } !!Ranging a Beacon You will receive the ranging callback under a couple conditions: 1. Your app is in the foreground and you are inside Nomi’s beacon region2.The device is locked or your app is in the background and the device just entered a NOMi beacon region (will range for ~10 seconds)Ranging offers two valuable pieces of information provided by the NomiBeacon class: RSSI and proximity zones. The RSSI value is the signal strength between the device and the beacon. Proximity zones are defined as follows: •Unknown - iOS cannot determine where the device is in relation to themost recently ranged beacon (usually meaning the device is outsideof range)
SDK for iOS Overview Version 1.2•Tap - The device is very close (within inches) to the beacon and canbe used for tap interactions•Near - The device is within a few feet of the beacon•Far - The device is distant from the beacon but still withinadvertisement rangeInformation about the user's current zone is available to you. Using this information, you can create an engaging experience for the app user.
