Is Arduino-XBee able to communicate with Bluetooth phone/PC?

[j6433]

im trying to make a robot with arduino mega http://cytron.com.my/viewProduct.php?pcode=ARDUINO-MEGA-C&name=Arduino%20Mega%202560%20R3%20(Compatible), connecting it with arduino xbee http://www.cytron.com.my/viewProduct.php?pcode=ARDUINO-XBEE&name=Arduino-XBee%20Shield%20(without%20module), and cytron bluetooth module
since at this page stated

Please note that the current version BlueBee Bluetooth module is only a slave module. Communication among two BlueBee is not possible.

is it possible for the bluetooth module to send data back to my bluetooth phone or computer? since it says communication between two bluebee is not possible? because i need to send data to my robot, and the robot has to feedback the data that it obtained from its surroundings to my bluetooth phone / PC

[zhenning]

Yes. Its possible as long as the other side is a pc or other devices that is able to be the master

Yup, I have seen several projects uses the Bluetooth module to connect to phone and computer. I have try with computer before. The statement is pointing to master and slave relationship before Bluetooth device. All of the phone and computer have two roles Bluetooth, it can be master and it can be slave. Since Cytron state that their BlueBee is only slave, so you can still connect it to your phone or computer

hmm... i just nid the bluebee to be on the robot and sending the data that it gathered from the sensors to my phone which will display output..

You just need to send data to the bluetooth module on your robot like you do rs232/uart communication. The phone will just output the values. There are some bluetooth example in the android sdk example if i am not mistaken

so it is possible ... o.o just confused, my phone to display output, but it is the bluebee on the robot sending the data...i thought the one sending data is master...:S

The one that send the data is usually the slavE? Only master can request for data. Once that slave is selected, it just keep sending the data.
