REDTACTON is a Human Area Networking technology, which is under development, that uses the surface of the human body as a safe, high speed network transmission path. It is completely distinct from wireless and infrared technologies. It uses the minute(little/small) electric field emitted on the surface of the human body.

INTRODUCTIONSo far we have seen LAN, MAN,WAN, INTERNET & many more. Here is new concept of REDTACTON which makes the human body as a communication network by name HAN (Human Area Network).

A transmission path is formed at the moment a part of the human body comes in contact with a RedTacton transceiver. Communication is possible using any body surfaces, such as the hands, fingers, arms, feet, face, legs or toes. When the physical contact gets separated, the communication is ended.

It was developed by Japanese Technology NTT (Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation) Lab.


HISTORYThe concept of intra-body communication was first

proposed by IBM in 1996. This communication mechanism was later evaluated and

reported by several research groups around the world.All those reported technologies had two limitations.

The operating range through the body was limited to a few tens of centimeters.

The top communication speed was only 40 bit/s!! • These limitations were overcome by NTT (Nippon

Telegraph and Telephone Corporation) located in Tokyo, Japan by using photonic electric field sensors and finally in 2005 they came up with a human area networking technology called ‘REDTACTON’


WHAT REDTACTON MEAN??

Red : a warm color to emphasis warm and friendly communications.

TACTON : TOUCH-ACT-ON

Action triggered by Touching


Mechanism of Communication


How it works

It works over the optical properties of an electro-optic crystal which can vary according to the changes of a weak electric field.


Transmitting transceiver creates a slight change in the electric field across the body.

Electric field is received by

electro optic sensor in receiver.

Receiving transceiver

recognizes the change in the electric field.

Sensing technology

measures the weak electric

fields induced.

Electro-optical crystal uses laser

to convert and read the signal.

How it works (Contd.)


Features of RedTacton has three main functional features…

http://www.redtacton.com/en/index.html


Touching, gripping, sitting, walking, stepping and other human movements can be the triggers for unlocking or locking, starting or stopping equipment, or obtaining data.

1.Touch


Interactive communication is possible at a maximum speed of 10Mbps. Because the transmission path is on the surface of the body, transmission speed does not deteriorate in congested areas where many people are communicating at the same time.

2.Broadband & Interactive


In addition to the human body, various conductors and dielectrics can be used as transmission media. Conductors and dielectrics may also be used in combination

3.Any-Media


Application Connect to the network

just by putting laptop on table hence reduce electric wiring.

Identification & verification of user and locking system.

Touch a printer to print screen.


Application (contd..)

Instantaneous private network via hand shaking.

Touch advertising and receive information.


RedTacton does not require the electrode to be in direct contact with the skin.

Can transmit data at a rate higher than that of peer technologies. (max. of 10Mbps)

RedTacton transceivers are programmable and we can decide what to share with whom and what devices you communicate with.

Each communication occurs in separate channels.

Transmission speed does not deteriorate even though the number of users increases.

Advantages


Data loss during transfer is less

Use of minimum amount of power (of some milli -volt range)

Security is more.

No problem of hackers . It is very hard to pick up stray electronic signals radiating from the body.

More secure than Bluetooth.

Superior than infrared technology & Wi-Fi.

It will be comparatively expensive.

As it uses electric fields on the surface of the body ,it may cause harm to the body.

Disadvantages

We conclude that, when we compare RedTacton with other technology present today it can give a better performance over others and to connect the network with in short distances RedTacton is best.

In this technology there is no problem of hackers as our body is itself a media Human society is entering an era of ubiquitous computing,
