Adds StandardFirmataBLE for Arduino 101. Should also work with the RedBearLab BLE Shield (v2) when paired with a board with sufficient memory (Zero, Due, Mega). Works with RedBearLab BLE Nano with modifications (detailed here).
To use with the Arduino 101, you must install the Intel Curie Boards v1.0.5 package via the Arduino Boards Manager. Reporting of analog input values and I2C read (when using READ_CONTINUOUS mode) will be slow (~150ms interval). You can greatly speed things up however by manually patching the CurieBLE library via the instructions here in StandardFirmataBLE.ino.
An example firmata.js (node.js) script for the Arduino 101 and RBL BLE shield is available here: https://gist.github.com/soundanalogous/927360b797574ed50e27
To use StandardFirmataBLE with supported RedBearLab boards, install the latest version of the arduino-BLEPeripheral library.
