Bluetooth is one of those technology buzzwords that have been increasing in popularity over the years but it’s not a fad. In fact, Bluetooth has really taken hold in other countries such as the UK, France, and Germany. We’ve been somewhat slow to adopt it in comparison here in the US but that is quickly changing. As this technology matures and products make it to market more and more people are learning about Bluetooth. So what is Bluetooth and why should you care? This short guide will answer those questions and provide you with enough background to have a working understanding of the technology without bogging you down with industry jargon.
Bluetooth is simply a way for electronic devices to communicate without wires. That’s not too farfetched of a concept considering we’re all used to the cordless phone, TV remote control, garage door opener, etc. In actuality Bluetooth can be more closely compared to your Wi-Fi network found at the local library or coffee shop that allows you to access the Internet.
However there are some important distinctions between Bluetooth and Wi-Fi networks. Bluetooth is a shorter range technology (about 30 feet) that is intended to connect devices together that would normally be connected by a short wire. In fact, Bluetooth really is a small personal area network that is capable of connecting multiple devices together yet secure so you can control what devices can and can’t talk to each other.
There are many types of devices that utilize Bluetooth, including the following:
• Cell phones
• Headsets
• Stereo Headphones
• Car Kits
• Speakers
When you start to think about the reasoning behind this it all begins to make perfect sense. Eliminate the wires and the need for different types of plugs for different devices. For example, listen to music from your iPod at the gym without worrying about wires getting in the way of your workout. There are countless ways to connect the devices above with each other. Now that they can all talk to each other over the air and life is much simpler for all of us.
As you can see Bluetooth has literally transformed the way we connect devices. With advances in technology we continue to see smaller, more energy efficient devices that are lightweight and have great battery life.
