Bluetooth logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- Download PNG Bluetooth Logo PNG Bluetooth is a technology intended for transferring digital data over short distances.
- It began to develop rapidly after 1998, when Ericsson, Intel, Toshiba, IBM, and Nokia joined efforts to promote the technology.
- Bluetooth is the name of a technology which allows mobile phones and computer to communicate with each other not using any wire connections.
- The technology was created in 1989 by one of the Intel specialists, Jim Kardach, and today is used by millions of people across the globe, being a true breakthrough in communication techs.
- Meaning and history The developer of the technology, Jim Kardach, came up with the name in 1994, and this is when the brand’s logo was introduced.
- The name was borrowed from a Danish king, Harald Bluetooth, who was known for uniting tribes into one nation.
- This is what the purpose of Bluetooth technology initially was — to unite devices without any wires.
- The Bluetooth logo, introduced in 1994, has never been redesigned, just a few variations of its color palette appeared throughout the years.
- The emblem of the technology is strongly connected to the etymology of its name, and its Danish roots.
- The white symbols on the blue background is a rune, which can be read as “HB”, initials of Harald Bluetooth.
- Symbol The Bluetooth logo is one of the brightest examples of the effectiveness of minimalist design.
- The emblem combines the Nordic runes that closely resemble the today’s Latin ‘H’ (Haglazl) and ‘B’ (Berkanan).
- Font and color The iconic Bluetooth logo can usually be seen whether in monochrome or a blue and white color palette, which both are a perfect choice for the brand, strongly related to technologies.
- The logotype is not often used for the Bluetooth visual identity, though when it is — the brand uses a bold yet very simple sans-serif typeface, which is very close to Neue Plak Condensed Bold font with its narrowed contours of the letters and thick lines.
