Advantages of Bluetooth Technology

Advantages of Bluetooth Technology

Presentations

Setting up power point presentations, for example, would no longer require a spaghetti- like tangle of cables between projectors, laptop and printer. You would simply place the laptop near the projector, turn them on, and wait a few moments for them to communicate the necessary operating parameters.

Synchronizing Data

Automatic synchronization can be a real time saver. When you're finished adding information to your palmtop at home, all you have to do is walk by your cubicle at work to get the files uploaded to the desktop PC. When you leave the office, any new files added to your desktop PC are automatically copied to your palmtop. With synchronization there's no longer any confusion about which file is on which machine.

Mobile e-commerce

Bluetooth wireless technology will play a key role in the electronic commerce. Soon you'll be able to avoid the line at retail stores to pay for items, or access the Internet anywhere via your mobile phone to order and pay for goods and services. Ericsson and Visa International are among the companies developing payment solutions for the purchase of goods and services over the Internet through mobile devices, including cell phones and palmtops.

Travel

If you happen to be a frequent flyer, the Bluetooth specifications offer some advantages for obtaining tickets. You can arrive at the airport and buy a ticket simply by walking past a wireless terminal, which informs your identity, issues an electronic ticket, and bills your credit card. A flight attendant would no longer have to visit passengers and ask them to turn off their electronic devices. After the request is broadcast, the airplane's master Bluetooth device would shut down all electronic devices automatically for takeoff and landing.
