2. Red Tacton
Developed by NTT from Japan.
Red Tacton is a new Human Area
Networking technology.
Claims to send data over the surface of skin.
Attains a speed up to 10 Mbps --- equivalent
to a fast broadband connection.
Uses weak electric fields on the surface of
human body instead of relying on EM waves
or light waves.
4. PRINCIPLE AND MECHANISM
Red Tacton relies upon the principle that the optical properties of
an electro-optic crystal can vary according to the changes of a
weak electric field.
5. PROTOTYPES
Red Tacton Transceiver(PC card
type)
Communicationspeed:10Mbps
Protocols: TCP/IP
Communication method: Half-duplex.
Interface: PCMCIA
• Red Tacton Transceiver(Hub type)
• Communicationspeed:10Mbps
• Protocols :TCP/IP
• Communication method : Half- duplex
• Interface: RJ45
• Red Tacton Transceiver(Box type)
• (under constructions)
9. Advantages
Communication by just a Simple Touch thus
eliminating use of hectic arrangements of wires.
Red Tacton provides high speed and accuracy .
Red Tacton transceiver electrodes are covered with
an insulating film, so there is no way current can flow
into users body.
Very secure Data Transmission i.e., there is no
problem of hacking since medium is our individual
body.
No need to insert smart cards, connect cables, tune
frequencies, or any of the other inconveniences
usually associated with today's electronic devices.
10. Complex in Design.
It is expensive as compared to other
mechanism.
Widespread marketing campaigns and
education.
11. Security applications
User verification
and unlocking
with just a touch
Automatic access
log for
confidential
document storage
12. Conclusion
The performance of Red Tacton is better as
compared to other technologies within short distance.
There is no any type of problem of hackers as our
body itself is the transmission media.
Today main issue is speed which is solved by Red
Tacton by providing very high speed of 10 Mbps within
short distances.
The evolution of this technology is a big achievement
which would likely to be targeted for use in applications
such as wireless headset ,medical application ,security
applications and wireless transmission.
