Does a PS4 Give Off EMF Radiation? I have spent many hours researching to find you the answers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The gaming community around the world will unanimously agree that the Playstation gaming console forever changed the tapestry of video games. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The PS4 which is the latest iteration of the Playstation platform promises to deliver top-notch performance and unmatched graphics, bringing about life-like animation and smooth gameplay like never before. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a kid who grew up playing video games, the PS4 excites me not only for its technological prowess but also for the cutting edge tech they deploy that just elevate games to the next level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This fun game console is a great asset and has time and again proved its worthiness as a great gaming station. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the PS4 comes with its fair share of risks that we must be educated about and be wary of. PS4s are notorious for generating massive amounts of EMF radiation and this is something all of us must recognize and protect<\/a> against. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article, we take a deep dive into how PS4 stations work, the radiation they generate<\/strong>, and what we can do to protect ourselves from the harmful exposure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However it is imperative to note here that no gaming console today is completely EMF proof. With so much emphasis on wireless these days, the gaming consoles have had to adapt to a wireless mode of input. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

These inputs include wireless joysticks and controllers, VR headsets, motion sensors, and more. <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Since these devices need to be connected to a local network to talk to one another and function seamlessly, this results in the generation of a huge pool of radiation that you\u2019re constantly getting exposed to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does the PS4 generate EMF radiation?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The PS4 generates a whole spectrum of radiation including EMF<\/a> and RF. <\/strong>Since most of its accessories are wirelessly connected, RF radiation plays a vital part in enabling the communication channels between these accessories and the console. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the gameplay has to be in real-time, the console and controllers generate thousands of radiation waves to enable smooth communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you might have guessed, this pollutes your immediate environment to a critical degree and puts you directly in the path of these harmful rays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That aside, the console also generates EMF. EMF is generated as a byproduct of electric current passing through a conductor<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is no real way of stopping EMF production but the good thing about it is that they are low energy, meaning they stay localized and cannot travel very far. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thus just increasing your distance from the console will make sure that you are safeguarded from being affected by EMF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do the PS4 controllers<\/strong> emit EMF radiation?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Do<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The PlayStation usually ships with either wired controllers or wireless. These days more and more people are choosing the wireless option since it is less of a hassle to set up and does not involve arranging a bunch of cables to make them work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The wireless controllers work by being connected to the main console via Bluetooth. They form a local network and relay constant information signals between each other to keep the smooth flow of data going. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because of this huge transfer of data, the wireless controllers use up a lot of bandwidth and generate a whole bunch of RF radiation. RF radiation is the same kind of radiation that you get from a smartphone or <\/strong>Wi-Fi router<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using wireless controllers is really bad for your health since all that radiation you\u2019re being exposed to puts your body under a lot of stress. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are absolutely unnecessary and anyone who\u2019s concerned about EMF radiation would dispose of them the first chance they get. The wired controllers on the other hand are perfectly good and capable alternatives that do not pollute by emitting radiation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The shift from wireless to wired controllers can be difficult to adjust at first but it would be nothing compared to the risk you\u2019d be minimizing by doing so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wireless controllers are simply an unnecessary source of radiation that we introduce to our homes, especially when we have the option of wired ones. We can\u2019t stress this enough \u2013 wired is better. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the internet to game station controllers, try and use everything wired and you\u2019ll have drastically reduced your chances of prolonged exposure to the deadly EMF radiation<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The thing is, if you\u2019re not ready to give up wireless controllers yet then you won\u2019t really have any luck controlling exposure. This is because of the fundamental design of these consoles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The controllers communicate back and forth with the console via Bluetooth. Now if you were to use an anti-EMF protective product like an EMF<\/a> blocker sheet to cover the console, the controllers will not be able to communicate with the PlayStation at all thus ruining gameplay. <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Sure you can choose to buy anti-EMF t-shirts and choose to wear them while playing your games but th<\/a>ey too provide protection only to<\/a> your torso, leaving your head and lower body completely exposed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The real proper way of defending yourself against EMF when it comes to gaming consoles is to give up wireless controllers and go for the wired ones instead. Trust me, the gameplay will be the same and your older self will thank me for this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The wireless headsets<\/strong> for your PlayStation emit EMF radiation? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People often choose to use a headset with their gaming consoles. It is both necessary and convenient since you can hear the audio inputs better and can speak to your teammates over the mic without any distortion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traditionally, gaming headsets have been bulky for better noise cancellation with an attached mic for good quality audio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are plenty of wonderful things to say about gaming headsets and indeed about why you too should get one, however, we must address how much of a radiation risk do they pose and are they a serious enough threat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The good news is that they are not very powerful for the most part, meaning using them probably won\u2019t cause you any harm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, they are right up there against your ears, next to your head, and even the faintest of radiations can potentially put you at risk of an abnormal mutation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Therefore, it is good practice to only use wired headsets when playing. The wireless ones use Bluetooth for connectivity which means it constantly sends and receives signals while you\u2019re playing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There is no reason why you should subject yourself to that and increase your chances of exposure. Shift to wired headsets and you won\u2019t have to think about this ever again!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best way forward in terms of headsets however are the air tube headsets<\/a>. They come with a microphone on the side and reduce radiation to a large extent<\/strong>. The sound from these air tube headsets is phenomenal and they are typically free of all types of EMF radiation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are purely mechanical in nature and work by sending audio directly to your ears through specialized air tubes instead of electrical wires. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are great for the PS4 since you can use them for an extended period of time without headaches, lack of focus, or any other problems that are typically associated with EMF radiation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
