Bash: detect iBeacons

ibeacon_scan.sh

#!/bin/bash
# iBeacon Scan by Radius Networks, modified by Dmitrij Rysanow (https://gitlab.com/thecyberd3m0n)
# will detect all iBeacon devices around and measure respective RSSI.
# Requires Bluetooth. If not works, run sudo hciconfig hci0 down; sudo hciconfig hci0 up;
