How do I get data sensor data from Microsoft band 2 to a Raspberry pi without SDK? (To a programming language)
<p>How can I get sensor data from the Microsoft Band 2 to a Raspberry Pi 3 (Raspbian Jessie)? The data should be  available in a higher level programming language such as Python, Java or similar.</p>

<p>I want to be able to run a program (Java, Python or similar) that  automatically receive data for processing when the Band is in range.</p>

<p>It is ok to pair the MS Band with a supported phone (and app) first in order to get past the setup on the Band. It is also ok to run some command-line tools on the Raspberry in order to pair the devices the first time (keys etc).</p>

<p>I have managed to pair and connect to the device using command-line tool: 
sudo bluetoothctl -a</p>

<p>But I can't create any connection from Python using BluePy or following Tony DiCola's tutorial:
<a href="https://learn.adafruit.com/bluefruit-le-python-library/installation" rel="nofollow">https://learn.adafruit.com/bluefruit-le-python-library/installation</a></p>

<p>My guess is that the Bluetooth LE privacy is messing things up?</p>

<p>Thanks for your time!</p>

<p>You should take a look at the documentation which for some reason is all jammed into a PDF <a href="https://developer.microsoftband.com/Content/docs/Microsoft%20Band%20SDK.pdf" rel="nofollow">here</a>.</p>

<p>It appears at the moment the only supported ways to get data of the band is using the SDK which only has support for iOS, Windoze and Andriod. </p>
