The Bluetooth More about Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) has confirmed that an update to the wireless technology will be unveiled later this month.
"Bluetooth 3.0, aka 'Seattle,' will be unveiled at the All Hands Meeting in Tokyo," Bluetooth SIG spokesperson Starr Baker told TechNewsWorld.
While it is expected to include higher speeds and throughput capacity by working with an 802.11 radio, it will likely be the harbinger of even more developments in the technology.
The generation of devices after Bluetooth 3.0 could include low-energy technology with applications in medicine, sports and mobile phones and computers.
Ultimately, Bluetooth may even come under the fourth-generation (4G) mobile telecommunications standard umbrella.
News of the development pleased analyst Julien Blin, principal analyst and CEO of JBBResearch. "For many years, people thought Bluetooth wouldn't survive all these new technologies, but it found a niche in cell phone headsets," he told TechNewsWorld. "The Bluetooth SIG is great at finding niches."
