This document discusses Bluetooth technology. It begins with an introduction to Bluetooth, including its origins in 1994 and key founders. It then covers the different versions of Bluetooth and their maximum data transfer rates. The document outlines the main features of Bluetooth like low power consumption and low cost. It provides examples of common Bluetooth applications such as wireless networking between devices, using peripherals, and transferring files between devices. Finally, it discusses the advantages of Bluetooth such as not requiring line of sight and being cable-free, as well as the disadvantage of slower speeds compared to other wireless technologies.

2. INDEX
• What is BLUETOOTH?
• Introduction.
• Versions in BLUETOOTH.
• Features OF BLUETOOTH.
• Applications of BLUETOOTH.
• Advantages & Disadvantages of BLUETOOTH.

3. WHAT IS BLUETOOTH?
• Bluetooth is a wireless technology used to
transfer data between different electronic
devices.
• The distance of data transmission is small in
comparison to other modes of wireless
communication.

4. BLUETOOTH FOUNDER
• The Bluetooth Specification was
developed as a cable replacement in
1994 by Jaap Haartsen and Sven
Mattisson, who were working for
Ericsson in Lund, Sweden.
• The company that developed the idea was a
development branch of LM Ericsson (now
merged with Sony to become SonyEricsson).
• They developed the idea in the early 90's,
and contacted a number of companies in
1995.

5. VERSIONS OF BLUETOOTH
• Bluetooth version 1.1 or 1.2, which offers such
basic features as voice dialing, call mute, and last-
number redial.
• Bluetooth 2.0 brought higher connection speeds
(as much as three times faster, in some cases),
improved performance, and less power
consumption.
• Most recent is the new Bluetooth 4.0 spec which
major feature is Bluetooth Low Energy, essentially
strong power management skills.

9. APPLICATIONS OF BLUETOOTH
• 2. Peripherals such as mouse, keyboards, and
printers.

10. APPLICATIONS OF BLUETOOTH
• 3. Cell phones with
Bluetooth technology
have been sold in large
numbers.
• The standard also
includes the support for
more powerful and
longer range devices.

11. APPLICATIONS OF BLUETOOTH
• 4. The transfer of files,
images and MP3,
between mobile
phones.
• 5. Certain MP3 players
and digital cameras to
transfer files to and
from computers.

12. APPLICATIONS OF BLUETOOTH
• 6. Bluetooth technology headsets for smart
phones and cell phones.

13. APPLICATIONS OF BLUETOOTH
• 7. Data logging
equipment that
transmits data to a
computer via Bluetooth
technology.

14. ADVANTAGES OF BLUETOOTH
• Bluetooth does not require a clear line of sight
between the synced devices.
• This means that the devices need not be
facing each other.
• And it is also possible to carry out transfers
when both the devices are in separate rooms.
• The fact that this technology requires no
cables and wires is something that has made it
so popular.
14

15. ADVANTAGES OF BLUETOOTH
• The maximum range that it offers is 100 meters, but
this range is not the same for all similar connections.
• It depends on the nature of the devices and the
version that they operate upon.
• One major advantage is its simplicity of use.
• Anyone can figure out how to set up a connection and
sync two devices with ease. Moreover.
• The technology is completely free to use and requires
no charges to be paid to any service provider.

16. DISADVANTAGES OF BLUETOOTH
16
• Though the transfer speeds are impressive at
around 1 Mbps, certain other technologies like
Infrared can offer speeds up to 4 Mbps.
• This is an area that can be improved on in the
near future.
