Abstract: For example, a first Bluetooth (BT) device may be configured to set up a bidirectional BT stream connection with a second BT device based on connection configuration information defined according to one or more stream setup messages communicated between the first BT device and the second BT device, wherein the bidirectional BT stream connection is configured to support communication of an audio data stream from the second BT device to the first BT device and a non-audio data stream from the first BT device to the second BT device, wherein the non-audio data stream includes head-orientation data based on an orientation of a head of a user, wherein the connection configuration information includes non-audio data stream configuration information to indicate a configuration of the non-audio data stream; and to transmit the head-orientation data to the second BT device according to the configuration of the non-audio data stream.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to improve Bluetooth low energy streaming connection efficiency are disclosed herein. An example method includes accessing a request received at a first device from a second device, the request requesting set up of an isochronous link between the first device and the second device, the request including a configuration identifier. Whether the configuration identifier identifies a configuration stored at the first device is determined. In response to determining that the configuration identifier identifies the configuration stored at the first device, the isochronous link using the stored configuration.

Abstract: This disclosure describes an enhanced Bluetooth channel establishment. A device may identify an isochronous connection oriented (ICO) command for a Bluetooth communication. The device may send a first ICO start command from a first link layer (LL) to a second LL, and the first LL may receive a first ICO start confirmation from the second LL. The first LL may then send a second ICO start command to a third LL, and the first LL may receive a second ICO start confirmation from the third LL. A third ICO start confirmation may then be sent. The device may also have an ICO request and response exchange between LL's.
