Bluetooth Wireless Technology
The Bluetooth wireless technology is set to revolutionize the personal connectivity market by
providing freedom from wired connections. It is a specification for a small form-factor, low-cost radio
solution providing links between mobile computers, mobile phones and other portable and handheld
devices, and connectivity to the Internet. The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG), comprised of
leaders in the telecommunications, computing, and network industries, is driving development of
the technology and bringing it to market. The Bluetooth SIG includes promoter companies 3Com,
Ericsson, IBM, Intel, Lucent, Microsoft, Motorola, Nokia and Toshiba, and more than 2000 adopter
companies.
