What is BLUETOOTH technology?
BLUETOOTH wireless technology
is a short-range wireless technology
that enables wireless data
communication between digital
devices, such as a computer or
digital camera. BLUETOOTH
wireless technology operates within
a range of about 10 m (about 30 ft).
Connecting two devices as
necessary is common, but some
devices can be connected to
multiple devices at the same time.
You do not need to use a cable for
connection since BLUETOOTH is a
wireless technology, nor is it
necessary for the devices to face one
another, such is the case with
infrared technology. For example,
you can use such a device in a bag
or pocket.
BLUETOOTH technology is an
international standard supported by
millions of companies all over the
world, and employed by various
companies worldwide. Communication System
