INTRODUCTION:
So far we have seen LAN, MAN, WAN, INTERNET & many more……
It uses surface of a human body as a safe, high speed network transmission path.
The name “TACTON” has originated, as the technology involves “touch and action”. The word “RED” indicates “warm and cordial communications.”
RedTacton uses weak electric fields on the surface of the body as a transmission medium to enable data speeds of up to 10Mbps between any two points on the body.
BACKGROUND:
NTT (Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corp.) found this amazing technology in the year 2005.
NTT’s RedTacton is a break-through technology that, for the first time, enables reliable high-speed HAN based on human centred interactions being easier for people to use.
Certain developments were made all the way in this technology and it is the way being used in all sectors for sensing technologies in security systems.
WORKING OF RED TACTON DEVICE:
1. The RedTacton transmitter induces a weak electric field on the surface of the body.
2. The RedTacton receiver senses changes in the weak electric field on the surface of the body caused by the transmitter.
3. RedTacton relies upon the principle that the optical properties of an electro-optic crystal can vary according to the changes of a weak electric field.
4. RedTacton detects changes in the optical properties of an electro-optic crystal using a laser and converts the result to an electrical signal in a optical receiver circuit.
CONCLUSION…
The advent of RedTacton technology by NTT is in itself revolutionary, which will likely be targeted for use in applications such as wireless headphones, wearable medical devices, security applications, point-of-sale interactions etc. This could get as simple as two people equipped with RedTacton devices being able to exchange data just by shaking hands.
It is amazing to see such a technology in the lives of human beings who always want comforts for their living in the present world.
