Description
Feature description
I would like to use bluetooth low energy in termux. bleak is nice option. It is already ported to android. The only missing part is access to android API from python in termux.
bleak uses pyjnius but it has access only to openjdk APIs. It would be possible to access android javavm by running it in termux-api process. I could prepare PR but I would like to check first if you would be willing to get it merge.
Reference implementation
With small test code I was able to run following example in termux https://github.com/kivy/pyjnius/pull/732
Have you checked if the feature is accessible through the Android API?
Yes
Do you know of other open-source apps that has a similar feature as the one you want? (Provide links)

Research direction
Start by reviewing the referenced pyjnius pull request and the Termux API repository to understand how Android APIs are exposed to Termux processes. Done would mean enabling Python access to the Android Java VM for the stated bleak Bluetooth Low Energy use case.
