 RED TACTON:
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.
• 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 A RED TACTON:
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.
 Touching, gripping, sitting, walking,
stepping and other human movements
can be the triggers for unlocking or
locking, starting or stopping equipment,
or obtaining data.
 Using RedTacton, communication starts
when terminals carried by the user or
embedded in devices are linked in
various combinations through physical
contact according to the human’s natural
movements.
 Communication speed can Device drivers can be downloaded
deteriorate in crowded spaces instantly and executable programs
due to a lack of bandwidth can be quickly sent.
 This will soon replace the current existing technologies like Wi-Fi,
Bluetooth and many other personal area networks.
In addition to the human body, various conductors and dielectrics can be used as
transmission media. Conductors and dielectrics may also be used in combination.
 One-to-One services

-----When a consumer stands

in front of an advertising
panel, advertising and
information matching his or
her attributes is automatically
displayed.

-----By touching or standing in front of items they are interested in...........,

consumers can get more in-depth information.

Examples of Similar Applications:

•Brochures only of products of interest to the visitor can be downloaded
automatically at trade shows.
 Intuitive operations:

----Print out where you want just by

touching the desired printer with one
hand and a PC or digital camera with
the other hand to make the link.
----Complicated configurations are
reduced by downloading device
drivers "at first touch".
Examples of Similar Applications:
•Transfer songs to portable music players
from notebook PCs with just a touch
NEW BEHAVIOUR PATTERNS:

An electrically conductive sheet is

embedded in the table.
A network connection is initiated
simply by placing a lap-top on the
table.
Using different sheet patterns
enables segmentation of the table
into subnets.

RedTacton can carry music or video between headsets,

mobile devices, mobilephones, etc.
Users can listen to music from aRedTacton player simply by
putting on a headset or holding a viewer.
SECURITY APPLICATIONS:
Carrying a mobile RedTacton-
capable device in one's pocket, ID is
verified and the door unlocked when
the user holds the doorknob
normally.
Secure lock administration is
possible by combining personal
verification tools such as fingerprint
ID or other biometric in the mobile
terminal.
 COMMUNICATIONS IN NEW
DOMAINS

----Potential for use as communication

method in outer space and under water
 

----Potential for use as communication

method with devices inside the human body
 PROTOTYPES
 Security Devices (Development Completed)

Portable Card-Size Transmitter Embedded Receiver

 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.
