RED TACTON (An avant-garde Human Area Networking technology)
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2014, Vol 16, Issue 1
Abstract
So many technologies for networking are known and are in use. These technologies connect people, objects and other networks together so as to share data and thus make information ready for access. Our body could soon be the backbone of a broadband personal data network linking your mobile phone or MP3 player to a cordless headset, your digital camera to a PC or printer, and all the gadgets you carry around to each other. A new networking technology called RedTacton was announced by NTT labs in 2005, which makes use of human body surface as communication medium when exchanging data among people, objects and networks. It is completely distinct from wireless and infrared. RedTacton has contrived a new pattern of behavior which defines different application areas of the technology. With this new technology ubiquitous computing services is enhanced. This is because it brings user-friendly ubiquitous services to people and objects in a network, in very close proximity. A transmission path is formed at the moment a part of the human body in contact with a RedTacton transceiver. Physically separating ends the contact and thus ends communication. It is a Human Area Networking technology that uses the surface of the human body as a safe, high speed network transmission path. Communication is possible using any body surfaces, such as the hands, fingers, arms, feet, face, legs or torso. RedTacton works through shoes and clothing as well. So we, in this paper are explaining the unique new functional features and enormous potential of RedTacton as a Human Area Networking technology.
