Wellue O2Ring-S: reconstructing the OxyII BLE protocol
A protocol study and Python client reconstruct the OxyII Bluetooth LE link used by the Wellue O2Ring-S T8520 pulse oximeter. It documents GATT characteristics, framing, CRC-8 and commands for device information, live SpO2 and heart rate, and stored-file transfer.
