3. INTRODUCTION
In an age where information is being considered as the blood
of this century
Human area network is basically an interconnection of
information technology devices within the range of an
individual.
This concept of intra body communication was first proposed by IBM
4. HISTORY
It has two limitations:
Limited operating range
Top commutation speed was only 40 bits/s
These limitations were overcome by NTT –Nippon Telegraph
and Telephone corporation a Japanese company
by using photonic electric field sensors and finally 2005
they came up with PCMCIA card sized prototype RED TACTON
It achieved duplex operation over the human body with an
communication speed of 10 mbps
5. DEFINITION
RED TACTON new Human Area
Networking technology that uses
the surface of the human body as a
safe, high speed network
transmission path, uses the minute
electric field emitted on the surface
of the human body
TACTON –“Touch –Act –On”
meaning “action triggered by
touching”
RED – It is an auspicious
colour to Japanese culture.
6. WORKING
Principle:
The basic principle is the creation of minute electro static fields
that modulated by a code giver to carry digital information are
capacitively transmitted to human skin as a conductor and then to
be transmitted by physical contact
8. Electric fields mechanism the body:
Ea: Electric Field induced
towards the body
Eb: Electric Field induced
from the body.
Ec: Electric Field escaping
from body to ground.
Es: Electric Field that
reaches receiver i.e.
Es=Ea-(Eb+Ec)

DOMAIN
•Used as
communication
method in outer
space and under
water
•Used as communication
method with devices inside
the human body.
19. ADVANTAGES
DRAWBACKS
No pairing is required
High speed and easy
access
Duplex operation
Highly secured
No wires just by touch
Turing into human swipe
card
Red Tacton also needs a lot
of research and
development
The most obvious barrier to
entry is that the cost and
time to develop Personal
Area network technology is
very expensive
While Red Tacton may be a
superior technology,
adoption could be slow
since Bluetooth and other
radio technologies are
already entrenched
20. CONCLUSION
We conclude that, when we compare Red
Tacton with other technology present today it
can give a better performance over others.
Human society is entering an era of
ubiquitous computing, where everything is
networked
