Bluetooth Creator Is A Dutch

In the mid-1990s, Dutch engineer Jaap Haartsen revolutionized the way electronic devices connected with each other by introducing Bluetooth, a low-power radio frequency connection that eliminated the need for cables. This breakthrough technology has since been implemented worldwide, and is now used in over two billion devices.

Bluetooth has changed not only the way electronic devices connect, but also how people share information and media, and communicate with one another. Named after Harald Bluetooth, a Viking who facilitated communication between Denmark and Norway, the technology bears his name as a tribute to his efforts in bridging the two countries through communication.
