How does Bluetooth Work?

Im always impressed by how smart some humans were that they came up with this or other mind blowing tech

Every so often I need a reminder of how advanced our stuff really is. Just think of how many systems like this make up even a simple smartphone.

The fact that I can send a message from my phone from here in the UK to someone in Japan in less than half a second is just nothing short of amazing. What a time to be alive.

7:45 the fact that you wrote "send to: Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler" aka Hedy Lamarr, aka the woman who is the reason we can use Bluetooth technology today due to her developing frequency hopping, warms my heart! :')

How did we go from banging rocks to this

I'm a Bluetooth engineer at a Bluetooth chip company. You did a good job for explaining the basis of the technology behind Bluetooth Classic. However, the newer version of Bluetooth, Bluetooth Low Engergy is quite different from Bluetooth Classic in terms of baseband transmission.

If you pause the video at places, you'll realise how detailed the video is at each timestamp, this must have took days to compile such great information in so easy to explain intuitive manner!

0:00: 📶 Bluetooth technology uses electromagnetic waves to transmit information wirelessly between devices. 3:47: 📡 Different visualizations of Bluetooth waves and frequencies are explained, along with the division of the electromagnetic spectrum into channels. 8:32: 📡 Bluetooth operates by sending packets of information through frequency hopping spread spectrum. 11:11: 🔬 Bluetooth headphones and smartphones can lose signal when a microwave is on, but Bluetooth signals can easily travel through obstacles like walls. 15:43: 💡 Bluetooth uses frequency shift keying and phase shift keying to transmit information using electromagnetic waves. 18:36: 🎧 Bluetooth headphones use frequency hopping to transmit data between the smartphone and headphones, with packets consisting of access codes, headers, and payloads of varying sizes.

This seriously just makes me appreciate how amazing our technology is that we take for granted. Seriously mind blowing stuff.

This is so complicated, props to the engineers creating this masterpiece

As a doctor in Wireless network, IoT and low rate communication, I understand most of this, however, I've never listened & visualised the way this was explained here, it was so exciting to watch & listen to. Thanks to whoever created this content! 🙏🏾🙌🏽

The precision required and all the various pieces working together in harmony is awe inspiring.

One of the things that absolutely blows my mind is anything wireless. I understand how it works, but it still blows my mind. The fact that I can pull my phone out of my pocket, and just watch a movie in Ultra HD quality is something I'll never be able to get over. I can't even begin to describe why it's so mind blowing to me, but if you know, then you know.

I was a designer of CSr bluetooth chips some 10+ years ago and am literally working on a wifi 6 chip right now these explanations and especially the analogies are perfect!

This video is unreasonably good. I dont think i've seen an educational video of any sorts with better analogies, explanations or better representation than this one. Big up, man!!!!

Absolutely brilliant analogies to explain extremely difficult concepts such as phase shifting. Awesome video as usual!

It is a crime that you do not have 1 mil subscribers yet. This is Soo coool :)

Technology nowadays is truly mind-bending, and the way you guys explain and illustrate it is on-par with the magic happening all around us. You have our deepest respect!

I love this video so much, the visuals, the notes, the knowledge, the education. Its phenomenal and I would love to see more. I am going to enjoy this channel a lot

I love these explanations. Having worked with colleagues in the Bluetooth environment, I was never really able to grasp the concept and it was pandora's box for me. This video really helped me understand it better.
