Paper presentation on ‘Red Tacton’

Abstract

Technology is making many things easier; I can say that our concept is standing example for that. So far we have seen LAN, MAN , WAN , INTERNET & many more but here is new concept of “ RED TACTON ” which makes the human body as a communication network by name .... HAN (Human Area Network). NTT lab from Japan is currently testing & developing this revolutionary technology .Red Tacton is a new Human Area networking technology that uses the surface of the human body as a safe, high speed network transmission path. Red Tacton uses the minute electric field generated by human body as medium for transmitting the data. The chips which will be embedded in various devices contain transmitter and receiver built to send and accept data in digital format.

The technology is called TACTON because this influences communication, that starts by touching (Touch) leading to various actions (ACTON).RED is used to convey the meaning of warmth in communication.

Red Tacton takes a different technical approach. Instead of relying on electromagnetic waves or light waves to carry data, a Red Tacton transmitter couples with extremely weak electric fields on the surface of the body. The weak electric fields pass through the body to a Red Tacton receiver, where the weak electric field affects the optical properties of an electro-optic crystal. physically separating ends the contact and thus closes the communication .Communication is possible using any body surfaces such as hands, fingers, arms, feet, face legs or torso.

Several "human body communication" technologies using the human body as a transmission medium have been reported in the past. But Red Tacton employs a proprietary electric field/photonics method, which surpasses the other methods in terms of communication distance, transfer speed, and interactivity.

In this paper we will discuss about red tacton, and its working states, and applications of red tacton various fields. And we will compare our red tacton with the other technology for data transmission And know about human area network.
