What is the difference between infrared and bluetooth technology?

Bluetooth operates using radio waves while infra-red communication works on fast pulses of light. If you have to send data from one mobile to the other using infra-red technology, you will have to keep both the mobiles facing each other. In other words the sensors of both the devices must be in each other's immediate line of sight.If something comes in the way of the two mobiles devices, the message or data will not pass through. Bluetooth technology however can pass through walls. You can send messages, data files, audio- files, video-files etc from your mobile to the other person in the next room, as long as the other mobile is within the radius of 10 meters. Infrared also only works between two devices at a time while Bluetoothcan work with as many as mobile devices as you want.

What is an infrared data receiver on a laptop?

An infrared data receiver (usually called a transceiver, since it can send and receive) is a dated inter-device communication standard that allowed line-of-sight wireless communication between equipped devices. It worked the same way that a remote control works. It sends out pulses of light in the infrared spectrum that are read by another device. These pulses constitute a stream of digital information. This communication method is rather dated, and not many devices support it anymore. It saw the most use in Palm and Windows Mobile devices even into the early 21st century, but has now been eclipsed by Bluetooth technology which provides faster transfers, longer transfer distances, and no need for line-of-sight between devices.
