Unknown Bluetooth Signal

I did a scan for bluetooth signal using Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos phone and the result [Available Devices] showed 2 devices.

Available Device No. 1 = 50:FC:9F:92:0D:23 and Available Device No. 2 = 26:62:12:11:43:30. Could somebody please tell me what is emitting these 2 bluetooth signals.

Thanks.

Hi Zemma,
These are Bluetooth MAC (Media Access Control) addresses.
You can find a list of MAC addresses assigned to various manufacturers here:
http://standards.ieee.org/develop/regauth/oui/oui.txt
This might provide some insight into how to figure out which devices you are seeing.
A couple of other methods might be to investigate Bluetooth sniffers or use an RF field strength meter to track down the locations.
Another way is to simply walk in different directions until you can no longer "see" the device - it should be then be somewhere in the middle of your connection zone.
