That's pretty straight forward. Android BluetoothManager have method of
getConnectedDevices()
Implementation like:
BluetoothManager manager = (BluetoothManager) getSystemService(BLUETOOTH_SERVICE);
List<BluetoothDevice> connected = manager.getConnectedDevices(GATT);
Log.i("Connected Devices: ", connected.size()+"");
If you want more details about connected devices then you can use the above list method put it into for loop and get the inner details of each Bluetooth device which are connected.

Add this in your manifest file
<receiver android:name=".MyBluetoothReceiver" >
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.bluetooth.device.action.ACL_CONNECTED" />
<action android:name="android.bluetooth.device.action.ACL_DISCONNECTED"
/>
<action
android:name="android.bluetooth.device.action.ACL_DISCONNECT_REQUESTED"
/>
</intent-filter>
</receiver>
Add this Class
public class MyBluetoothReceiver extends BroadcastReceiver {
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
String action = intent.getAction();
// When discovery finds a device
if (BluetoothDevice.ACTION_ACL_CONNECTED.equals(action)) {
BluetoothDevice device = intent
.getParcelableExtra(BluetoothDevice.EXTRA_DEVICE);
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),device.getName() +" CONNECTED",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
} else if (BluetoothAdapter.ACL_DISCONNECTED
.equals(action)) {
}
}
}
