Scosche Streaming Audio via Bluetooth for iPod/MP3 Players
Trevor Kaplan for Scosche Industries, a leader of mobile electronics aftermarket accessories, demonstrates the company's newest BlueLife products at CES 2006. Scosche has developed streaming audio via Bluetooth capabilities for home, car and sport usage. The Scosche Bluetooth transmitter connects directly to the headphone output connector of the iPod/MP3 unit and transmits to a Bluetooth receiver connected to the auxiliary input of a vehicle's head unit or home audio system. Unlike other wired FM transmitters or RF remotes, Scosche's wireless technology transmits digital continuous streaming audio with CD quality sound to your car audio or home audio system. BlueLife can connect to automotive aftermarket or OEM head-units. BlueLife includes hands-free cellular functions for Bluetooth enabled cell phones allowing users to listen to their music and answer cell phone calls hands-free in their cars. The hands-free cell phone microphone is included with Scosche BlueLife kit. The Scosche wireless Bluetooth interface in the home will allow anyone to listen to an iPod or MP3 player with digital sound CD quality through a home audio system. The transmitter can pair to an unlimited number of receivers. The Scosche receiver is powered by either an included 110AC power supply for home use or the included 12-volt adapter for automotive use.
