SerCom attend Bluetooth conference.
Members of the SerCom Design Team recently attended the Bluetooth ‘special interest group’ conference, (SIG), recently held in Stockholm. The conference was also attended by representatives of the world’s top 7 consumer electronics companies.
The SerCom product shown at the conference received great acclaim and will feature in the SIG catalogue which will be issued in Feb 2008.
The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) is a privately held, not-for-profit trade association. The Special Interest Group was founded in September 1998. The Bluetooth SIG itself does not make, manufacture, or sell Bluetooth enabled products. The SIG has more than 9,000 member companies that are leaders in the telecommunications, computing, automotive, music, apparel, industrial automation, and network industries. SIG members drive development of Bluetooth wireless technology, and implement and market the technology in their products. The SIG has a small group of dedicated staff in Hong Kong, Sweden, and the USA.
The Bluetooth Name
Bluetooth started as the code name for the association when it was first formed and the name stuck. The name "Bluetooth" is from the 10th century Danish King Harald Blatand - or Harold Bluetooth in English. King Blatand was instrumental in uniting warring factions in parts of what is now Norway, Sweden and Denmark - just as Bluetooth technology is designed to allow collaboration between differing industries such as the computing, mobile phone and automotive markets.
