How Can I Make My Projector Bluetooth Capable

Bluetooth technology has become the part and parcel of modern-day life. Bluetooth tech is used all across the globe for entertainment, streaming, and any other possible purpose that requires you to go hands-free and do away with the wires and cables.

Almost every one of our readers here is familiar with the importance of Bluetooth tech in our modern-day lives. Bluetooth tech doesn’t only give us a clutter-free experience it also ensures the convenience and usefulness to improve our lives.

For instance, imagine yourself driving a vehicle, and an important call rings on your smartphone.

If you rely on the traditional techs you would either have to ignore the call to keep driving or stop the car in a suitable spot to attend to the call.

Stopping the car is not always possible during the drive therefore the suitable choice would be to avoid taking the call for safety purposes.

Now imagine yourself using Bluetooth technology wirelessly connecting your smartphone with the air pods in your ear. You would not only be able to take the call but also follow the traffic rules that state no cellphone usage during driving.

This is just one useful aspect of the Bluetooth tech and there are countless more that we don’t have to reinforce since most of the readers are already familiar with them.

What Can A Bluetooth Projector Do?

Now that you are familiar with the convenience and usefulness of Bluetooth technology, you must be curious about its appeal to projectors. What can Bluetooth technology provide to the projectors as there are no roles of going hands-free?

You can easily use a non-Bluetooth projector without any extra stress on the hardware but imagine all the accessories that you have to tag along with your projector, VGA cables, headphone jack, adapters, AUX cables, and one extra cable for every connection that you intend to establish with your projector and media source device.

For example, let us say that you intend to connect your projector with your laptop, you would have to connect the two devices using either HDMI or a VGA cable. Then you have to plug in sound cables like AUX cables or headphone wires.

If you want to use the external speakers as an audio source you would have to connect your external speakers using wires to your projector or laptop. This is a real hustle and demands various accessories to be purchased and tackled during the projector working.

Now imagine the Bluetooth projector, where you just have to power on your projector and wirelessly connect it to your laptop and speakers. Bluetooth supported by the projector and external media devices is the only thing you need to run a Bluetooth connection.

No extra wires, no accessories, no sound cables, nothing, you just have to turn on the laptop, start Bluetooth pairing, and connect it with your projector (that has already turned on the Bluetooth mode). That’s pretty much it for making a connection using Bluetooth technology and it allows you to enjoy a clutter-free display with no extra mess of wires.

How Can I Make My Projector Bluetooth Capable?

Let us now see how can we make our non-Bluetooth projector a Bluetooth-capable projector.

Bluetooth-capable projectors require an additional device called a Bluetooth transmitter which is a small receiver mediating the Bluetooth connection between the projector and external media devices.

It is a small device with an output of 5 watts and it can send high-quality audio streams with low fidelity (Lo-Fi) sound that are quite popular among today’s generation.

Bluetooth transmitters can be paired easily with any device that has preinstalled Bluetooth technology in it such as smartphones, computers, PC, Laptops, speakers, soundbars, and any other device supporting Bluetooth.

The data transmission frequency of a Bluetooth transmitter is 2.45 GHz and it also allows for cable connection with a headphone jack using a 3.5 mm headphone cable.

With the use of a Bluetooth transmitter, you don’t have to worry about battery life as it supports more than 10 hours of average battery life once fully charged. The range of this Bluetooth transmitter is up to 1 meter which is a great range to be used anywhere in the room.

As far as its economical point is concerned, these are readily available devices at very affordable rates. You can buy a high-quality Bluetooth transmitter from a retail shop near your vicinity or on Amazon.

Here’s How To Connect Bluetooth Transmitter With Your Projector:

Connecting a Bluetooth transmitter with your projector is a simple task and the basic idea is to pipe the audio of your projector into the Bluetooth transmitter using an AUX cable (3.5mm audio jack cable) and then wirelessly pair the transmitter with your speakers.

Bluetooth transmitter has two modes designated as TX and RX modes. The RX mode is the receiver mode that receives the shared data from the Bluetooth transmitter to the projector.

The TX mode acts as the transmit mode and it transmits the projector audio into the Bluetooth transmitter and then to the speakers. The TX model enables your projector to become Bluetooth-capable.

Follow the given steps to enable Bluetooth capability in your projector.

• Power on your projector.
• Turn on the Bluetooth transmitter placed within 1 meter of your projector.
• Now, turn on the TX mode of your Bluetooth transmitter by pressing the switch located on the lateral panel of the Bluetooth transmitter.
• Get an AUX cable out and connect one terminal with your projector and plug the other one into the 3.5 mm jack on your Bluetooth Transmitter.
• Now push and hold the Bluetooth button on your Transmitter for 5 seconds. After releasing the button press it twice. This will turn on the pairing mode and will automatically pair your projector that is connected by an AUX cable.

Now your projector is using the Bluetooth technology of the transmitter and you can use it to connect with your external media devices like speakers or laptops wirelessly.
