Human Area Network :

Red Tacton:

Everybody wants to make the life simpler and thus scientists of NTT Labs are trying to develop a new trend HAN [Human Area Network] in addition to the LAN, WAN & MAN that makes the transmission of signal, much simpler  through the human body. This new type of Network is popularly known to be Red Tacton. Its commonly known fact that  human body generates negative charges but a new research proved that communication is possible by just handing  a Red Tacton touch device in our pockets. All physical movements like touching, gripping, sitting, walking, stepping and so on are used as triggers for various processes of this equipment. In Red Tacton device, the extent to which the optical properties of the body are changed is detected by laser light which is then converted to an electrical signal by a detector circuit that makes the communication possible. It has broad application in the daily life of human and expected speed is 10 MBPS. A study said that it will not affect human body and even the multiple communications will not affect the speed. It can be used efficiently by astronauts and physically disabled people to have an easy communication. In this paper, I have discussed the principle, working and suggested the working environments where the Red Tacton Technology has huge role to play.

Let me give a brief intro :

Communication plays an important role in our life. Our life will be simple if safe, secure and easy communication is possible. An efficient intra body communication system is developed to provide a very secure, fast communication by NTT Lab known to be RED TACTON. Red- Warmth, T- Touch, and Acton- Action stands for RED TACTON .If we could use the human body itself as a transmission medium, then this would be an ideal way of implementing human area networks because it would solve at a stroke all the problems including low security, throughput reduction, and high network setup costs.

Lot of technologies is emerging everyday and they are getting implemented in various fields to make our life more convenient. We are familiar with the networks like LAN (Local Area Network), WAN (Wide Area Network); MAN (MetroPolitian Network) but here is the new type of Human Area Network which is popularly known to be Red Tacton.NTT.

Lab located at Japan is currently designing this technology. 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. They can be efficiently used in security, medical field, and the device communication field

Red Tacton employs a proprietary electric field/photonics Method, which overtakes the other methods in terms of communication distance, transfer speed, and interactivity. It is highly secure and impossible to get hacked. It is a high speed network and well suited for short distance communication. In future , where man is destined to reach new heights of technology ,a trend like RedTacton is likely to direct him in the right direction giving him hope and motivation than any other technology man is able to perceives on the human centered interaction
