Since infrared technology proved unreliable for the job, another method to wirelessly and efficiently transfer information needed to be put on the fast track of development. Originally intended as a wireless option over RS-232 data cables, Bluetooth was the answer engineers were looking for and has since become the most popular solution for wireless cell phone communications due to its ability to reassign information over small distances, such as from a cell phone to a headset. If you’re wondering why this technology is called “Bluetooth”, you might be interested to know gthat it comes from the Danish word Blatand, the nickname of Denmark’s King Harald I who lived over a thousand years ago and was responsible f

or bringing together the separate tribes of his country to form a single, strong kingdom. Since Bluetooth unites communications protocols into a sole standard, the moniker fit perfectly and the rest is communications history.

Once the Bluetooth technology was adopted, wireless headsets began to flourish as did their evolution into the sophisticated devices that they are today. Being “common devices” it can be easy to forget how incredible some of their features really are. For example, strategically placed grooves, cutting edge acoustic fabrics and electronic filters eliminate annoying wind noise. Headsets with dual microphones in their boom differentiate between the user’s voice and background noise thus making it easier to filter out unnecessary audio. And, if that were not enough, some headsets intelligently and continuously adapt to background noise while improving clarity, volume and reception.
