What is Bluetooth?

• If you were to perform a quick check upon many of the online market places
  which deal with electronic-communications equipment and gadgets you
  would readily notice a common form of technology. The technology of
  which I am referring to is universally known as Bluetooth. This
  technology is simply a certain specification that must be incorporated
  within the devices to enable that device to function and communicate
  over very short distances. As an example you may have two specific
  gadgets like a computer and a wireless telephone. These devices can
  work effectively together and even swap files with the use of a low
  power communications system assuming that both of these units
  incorporate and are equipped with the Bluetooth technology.

• Initially
  when this technology was first introduced to the industry and placed on
  the marketplace it was first viewed as a viable alternative to the once
  popular RS232 data transfer system. Unfortunately, the Bluetooth
  technology was unable to upset the current trend for RS232 and failed
  to replace the system. This failure was principally because the
  technology of the RS232 can effectively connect a vast number of
  different devices together without having to deal with the common
  issues of synchronization. Bluetooth technology did however open its
  own avenues of importance and developed its own uses. It became
  especially known for its low power consumption within a short range.
  Two or more devices equipped with this Bluetooth technology can work
  with each other from at least one meter to as much as 100 meters
  without the lose of the signal and perform these tasks wirelessly. It
  is the Bluetooth’s ability to function in a short, limited distance and
  its wireless capability that provides it with its greatest asset. Keep
  in mind however that the moment one of the gadgets are no longer in the
  immediate range of each other then the equipment can no longer
  communicate with each other even if both of them are equipped with the
  Bluetooth technology.


• Since the Bluetooth uses the radio
  broadcast communications systems for its ability to function then all
  the equipment that is required to work together need not line up merely
  to facilitate its individual file sharing session. Multiple tasks can
  easily be accomplished according to the capabilities of the equipment
  itself.


• bluetooth has progressed to the
  status of a common everyday technology which is now popularly used on
  the majority of mobile cell phones and those which provide for hands
  free operation in particular. This technology is also a growing feature
  that is found more or less on many pieces of equipment that is being
  developed for the personal computers, communications devices as well as
  for the gaming consoles and entertainment devices popular with young
  people today. Bluetooth is definitely here to stay.
