Talk, listen to music, and do much with your mobile phone
With Bluetooth technology you can talk wirelessly using a headset paired with your phone, a car handsfree system connected to your phone, or listen to music on your phone with a set of Bluetooth wireless stereo headphones.
The growth in smartphones continues to explode, giving phones the computing power to run applications never before possible, while collecting and analyzing information from wireless sensors in new and innovative ways.
Phones will soon start to include dual-mode chips that support new Bluetooth v4.0 technology and also the classic Bluetooth technology in virtually all of today's phones (for compatibility with current Bluetooth devices).
These next-generation phones will function as "gateway" devices to collect vital medical information about people from tiny sensors on their body and send it to their doctor or other healthcare provider via the Internet.
The information-gathering role of mobile phones won't be limited to medical devices. They'll also be able to harvest wireless information from sensors in your phone, your car, and many other places.
