| <p>Provides classes to manage Low-power Wireless Personal Area Network (LoWPAN) functionality on the device. |
| Examples of such network technologies include <a href="http://threadgroup.org/">Thread</a> and |
| <a href="http://www.zigbee.org/zigbee-for-developers/network-specifications/zigbeeip/">ZigBee IP</a>.</p> |
| <p>The LoWPAN APIs provide a means by which applications can communicate |
| with the lower-level wireless stack that provides LoWPAN network access.</p> |
| |
| <p>Some APIs may require the following user permissions:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>{@link android.Manifest.permission#ACCESS_LOWPAN_STATE}</li> |
| <li>{@link android.Manifest.permission#CHANGE_LOWPAN_STATE}</li> |
| <li>TBD</li> |
| </ul> |
| |
| <p class="note"><strong>Note:</strong> Not all Android-powered devices provide LoWPAN functionality. |
| If your application uses these APIs, declare so with a <a |
| href="{@docRoot}guide/topics/manifest/uses-feature-element.html">{@code <uses-feature>}</a> |
| element in the manifest file:</p> |
| <pre> |
| <manifest ...> |
| <uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.lowpan" /> |
| ... |
| </manifest> |
