Bluetooth technology has changed the way people use office and other
communication devices. With Bluetooth, you can reduce the number of
wires used to connect one piece of equipment to another, create
wireless environments in your car, office, and home, and you can use
some of these devices without having to activate them by hand.
In
order to take advantage of Bluetooth technology, equipment must be
Bluetooth compatible, meaning they contain the chips necessary to
receive and send short-wave signals. Common devices that can be used
include:
Older
model cell phones and other equipment may not have Bluetooth. You
can purchase Bluetooth cards to create a wireless environment.
WHAT IS
BLUETOOTH?
Bluetooth is a short-wave frequency that has a 30 foot span. Even
though this frequency is short, it is perfect for car and office
use. Many new devices have Bluetooth capabilities even if you don’t
plan on using them.
BLUETOOTH SECURITY
Bluetooth frequencies are made secure through encryption and
password entry. Much like other forms of wireless technology,
Bluetooth is very secure and is used in many offices and other
professional environments that want to save space by connecting all
office devices without having to use wires.
USES
FOR BLUETOOTH
Bluetooth was first used to connect all computers in an office to
printers without having to rely on wires. Other uses include:
-
file transfer between laptops, cameras, PDA’s and
other equipment to central computers
-
make use of wireless equipment such as a mouse,
keyboard, headsets, and remote controls
-
create hands-free environment in the car
-
synchronization of PDA’s and other mobile devices
to desktop calendars
Bluetooth technology can help keep your office, car, and other areas
organized by limiting the number of wires you will need. As long as
all devices are Bluetooth compatible, they can be used together.
WHAT IS
HANDS-FREE TECHNOLOGY?
Thanks
to Bluetooth capabilities, you can now create a virtually hands-free
environment in your car that allows you to make and receive phone
calls without having to touch your cell phone.
Hands-free technology has helped improve driver safety by allowing
people to focus on the road instead of trying to answer the phone or
dial while driving.
Hands-free technology is available in many new car models, or you
can have it installed in your current vehicle. You can also buy a
hands-free rear view mirror device that works with most cell phones
and other Bluetooth devices.
THE
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN BLUETOOTH AND HANDS-FREE TECHNOLOGY
Bluetooth technology has paved the way for hands-free technology in
that the ability to connect to different devices without the use of
wires. This has made it possible for people to connect their cell
phones to a secondary device that will answer, dial, and reject
calls with the push of a button or using voice activated tags.
Because
many regions are passing laws that are making it more difficult for
drivers to talk while driving, hands-free technology has played a
large part in the safety of drivers.
