Mini Bluetooth
Advanced Bluetooth Car Kits, Functions and features
There are a lot of bluetooth car kits on the market at the moment, and with the exception of a few they are all virtually the same product. Not technically, mechanically or visually but in terms of functionality a lot operate in a similar fashion. This is both and advantage and disadvantage to the end user. The main advantage is that the products that you purchase all perform to a certain standard and operate with minimum effort. However the disadvantage is the kits range in price starting in the cheaper end of the market through to the mid-range and its difficult to tell which product is best for you. Especially when you might purchase a kit that is out performed by a cheaper.
Choosing a kit can be as easy or as difficult as you make it. There are a lot of brands and products to choose from, and this can be a little daunting at first but its important to remember what you want the kit for. What functions you would like it to have, How it looks and what your prepared to pay for it. Bearing in mind which ever product you choose you will be able to use it for the main function you want it in the first place, to use your phone while driving. Everything else is a secondary function that you will either pay more to have or live without.
So what are the more advanced features and are they worth paying more to have?
New and improved technology is being developed all the time, and the chances are as you are reading this now some of the current functions and features are already old news. however everything has a starting point and developing these features to form something totally different is a continual process. Take music for example, first vinyl, then tape cassette, then CD and now MP3 (you can fit mini-disc in there somewhere too). Now think of all of the applications created for these different music types and what's been developed from them into something totally different.
The most advanced technology in use at the moment is being developed by the likes of Parrot and Bury. Both manufacturers are well know for producing well rounded and functional products at the cutting edge of technology and the new kits being produced now are no exception. Parrot and Bury have aimed to develop slightly different areas within the industry.
Parrot main focus has been the integration of external products to work in great harmony with the parrot car kits. The MKI range from parrot is the latest to be produced and hit the shops. The MKI range all have iPod connectivity as standard and the iPod can be controlled via the parrot remote. In the case of the MKI9200 the playlist and artwork appears on the screen making it much easier to control what music you want to play. The MKI range also uses text to voice technology and is capable of reading out text messages to the driver.
Bury have mainly focused on the bluetooth handsfree side of things and produced a product that will help revolutionise the world (in a small way). The development of the Bury voice command protocol is exceptional. The CC9060 can be controlled by voice commands for just about every option in the Bury and phone menu. Once you are in the car you can fully operate the car kit by you voice alone, further more you dont need to train the kit to learn your accent. Just get in and go. I can explain how impressed i was when i first had a play with the technology. Simple easy to use and excellent quality.
At this point in time you have to pay a little extra for newer technology and advanced bluetooth features, but you would expect that in every walk of life. The fact is that alot of effort has been put into the development of these new advanced bluetooth car kits, and that effort has certainly paid off for the end user.Modern bluetooth kits don't just offer bluetooth functionality, these kits are becoming more like multimedia centre's. You can have your favourite music playing through you stereo, video stored on your iPod playing on the screen, messages read out as soon as received and access to your phone contacts at the touch of a button or in some cases by simply requesting it.
The advanced features in the new kits are impressive to use and do make a big difference to the functionally, however its important to remember why we need to use bluetooth car kits rather than engaging in a manual phone conversation while driving. The facts and figures are plain to see, if you use a hand held phone while driving your 4 x more likely to be involved in an accident and your reactions speed is reduced by 50%. In fact a lot of experts now liken the effects of phone-driving to that of drink-driving, and how many of us drink drive???
Put simply for every second you spend operating the phone while you drive you run the risk of killing somebody. Be sensible and safe on our roads, they are already dangerous enough
