What are the differences between RF, IR and Bluetooth wireless headphones?
There are also wireless headphones that use light to transmit the sound. This technology is called ir, ir stands for infrared. The disadvantage using ir headphones are that they only work when the light is visible. That means that you have to make sure that it’s always open air between the transmitter and the headphones to get a clear signal.
Some of the rf headphones are compatible with Bluetooth. Bluetooth is also a radio technology which chops up the data being sent and transmits chunk of it on up to 79 frequencies. Bluetooth provides a way to connect and exchange information between Mobile phones, laptops, video game consoles etc. If you have a Laptop or a mobile phone with Bluetooth wireless adapter you are able to connect your wireless Bluetooth headphones and listen to music. The Bluetooth technology is growing in popularity so don’t be surprised if Bluetooth will become the main source of wireless headphone technology in the future.
