The Blue Tooth Headset - History
Did you know that the Blue Tooth Headset was named after a Norwegian king?
King Harald Bluetooth got his name from the color of his teeth, caused by his dietary habits. He was totally convinced that when he united Sweden and Denmark during his reign (910 to 985 AD), he would bring all the people together.
More than a century later, Ericsson mobile Communications came up with an idea. Why not try to link mobile phones and all their accessories together with a new technology? And guess what? They named it after the Norwegian king. Nokia, Toshiba, IBM and Intel joined in 1998 Ericsson in forming a special interest group to develop this technology. Their goal was to allow all electronic devices to communicate. They kept the name Bluetooth, and the technological advances led the communications world to where it is today, and will still be important in the technology of tomorrow.
A blue tooth headset for cell phones, a wireless blue tooth headset for listening to music and movies. It is today a very common sight. Blue tooth headsets are also used with computers, often with the Voice over Internet Protocol, commonly known as VoIP. This enables the user to make calls through the headset, like if it was a wireless telephone.
The research done by the early special interest group made it possible to create laptop computers, cell phones and telephones with integrated blue tooth technology. Technology that enabled communication with other devices. And as a direct result of this research, we got the blue tooth headset.
