Implementation of iBeacon technology in Android

Question

I want to develop a App which recognizes the beacon just like the iBeacon technology that Apple has created for iOS apps.

Does Googles Android has similar technology like the Apple's iBeacon or Is there any third party library available for supporting beacons detection?

Thanks,

It should work on any device that has Bluetooth LE. Maybe it needs some workarounds on some devices but it sure is possible. — Aksiom, Apr 18 '14 at 11:52

My company has released the open source Android iBeacon Library, which handles detection and ranging of beacons.
