Super Hot Bluetooth Accessories That You Must Have Now

by Nathan T. Lynch

Once a person has Bluetooth technology integrated into their home and office, they will want to invest in some accessories. These accessories go far beyond cell phone skins and ring tones. These accessories are advanced little gadgets that can make using this technology even easier and faster. Wireless technology is the wave of the future. Finding ways to adapt it and make it fit into one's lifestyle is not that difficult. Chances are, Bluetooth technology was already being used before people realized it. If a person has used a wireless interest connection at home, at the local coffee shop or bookstore, they are taking advantage of this technology. Even though it has gone far beyond simple wireless computer connection, to many people, this is all they know. This technology has been around for years now.

But for those who use this type of technology often, Bluetooth has made their lives a little simpler. Some of the most popular accessories are car kits. Many newer model cars come with built in wireless connection. This is because many new cars come with navigation systems, which are also wire less. This means that phone calls can be made even in the most mountainous of areas. For those who travel by car often, this is the technology to invest in. With hands free headsets that work on voice activation, a person can make a phone call without taking their hands off the steering wheel. In some new cars the caller ID is flashed in the rearview mirror. One can ask for a phone menu and it will pop up with all of the person's contact numbers. These can be pre-programmed into the phone and used in the car.

For those who want wireless technology in their car, but who can't afford to buy a new car, car kits have been created. By rewiring the electrical system in any car, wireless technology can be installed. A car kit comes with the wiring, headset, and other accessories that make driving safer. These kits are a lot less than buying a new car, but can still be expensive. Car kits are available in most automotive stores, online, or at car dealerships. Upgrading to a wireless car environment is worth the investment for those who spend a lot of time driving, for those who want to drive safely, and for emergency usage.

All office equipment can be connected to one network without all the wires and extra outlets. Being able to run everything all the time is a great luxury that will come in handy. A wireless mouse can free up space and make drawing and other intricate usage easier. For graphic designers, a wireless mouse can save the day. Being able to point the mouse in the exact spot saves time and money. PDA's can now be used to check e-mail, fax, print, send images, and make phone calls without having to switch networks or physically connect to a network. This has really improved the working world. A person can make a phone call to anyone or send them a fax that will get there and in time.

Being able to connect to the Internet quickly and still be able to send a fax or print something at the same time is achievable with Bluetooth technology.

Bluetooth Makes The Wires Disappear

by Khieng Chho

While relatively new to the ears of common consumers, Bluetooth technology has been around for several years and number of products that support this application grows year after year. Various technology-oriented companies advertise Bluetooth-enabled PDAs, laptops and mobile phones.

Bluetooth is a not-so-new technology that utilizes short-range radio connections, designed to take the place of cables that connect mobile or fixed electronic gadgets. Its main capabilities are low complexity, robustness, low power and low cost. Made to operate in noisy frequency places, the Bluetooth radio utilizes a fast acknowledgement and frequency hopping application to make a seamless connection.

Bluetooth radio modules move across at 2.4GHz, an unlicensed GSM band. The use of this frequency enables the technology avoid interference from other frequencies and signals. Bluetooth radio hops at a faster pace compared to other systems operating in the similar frequency level, as it uses shorter packets.

History of Bluetooth

The word Bluetooth can be traced to European history. The King of Denmark from 949 to 981 Harald Bluetooth was known for his unique ability to help people effectively communicate with each other. The reference to the king is appropriate for wireless communications technology. Characters on the Bluetooth logo come from the runic alphabet.

The basic definition based on BlueTooth.org indicates that it is a worldwide specification low-cost radio solution, small-form factor that enables direct communications between mobile phones, mobile computers, and other portable gadgets, and online connectivity.

Bluetooth gadgets operate on 2.4 GHz radio signals similar to many cordless telephones and 802.11 b/g wireless networking systems. However, Bluetooth has began to minimize interference and improve quality of transmission in response to almost excessive use of the frequency range in occupies. Interference problems have been greatly addressed in version 1.1 of the Bluetooth standard but these are not backward compatible to previous versions because of the considerable difference in hardware.

Bluetooth has a maximum transfer rate of 723 kbps and range of 20-100 meters or 65 to 125 feet. However, Bluetooth will unlikely become an alternative to wireless standards given its slower speed.

Bluetooth can be used in various applications ranging from PDAs, to laptops, to input devices, headphones and wireless printer adapters. Many laptops have a built in Bluetooth adapter that enables the gadget to seamlessly communicate with other Bluetooth-capable devices. USB Bluetooth adapters can be connected with many laptops and desktop system that do not have an onboard adapter.

Bluetooth also allows PDA's to easily sync wirelessly and transfer data. Bluetooth is also useful in headphones particularly fro mobile phone communications and audio playback. A Bluetooth-enabled mobile headset can be used in combination with a Bluetooth enabled mobile phone, allowing the user to go hands and wire free.

Gadget manufacturers such as Logitech have products that are wireless because of Bluetooth technology. A Bluetooth mouse can be used in computers or both a keyboard and mouse. A key advantage of using a Bluetooth-enabled mouse and keyboard is range, as some can be used for as long as 30 feet.

Bluetooth printer adaptors are convenient to use in a typical network due to the elimination of wires. Printing can be done from any location inside an office.

The main roadblock for Bluetooth to be widely accepted is cost to implement. Currently, Bluetooth has not grown in terms of use as what technology pundits have hoped for. However, Bluetooth does offer a practical solution to many gadgets that could not have wireless connectivity without the technology.
