Conclusion




Redtacton uses the minute electric field emitted on
the surface of human body as medium for
transmitting the data.

RedTacton can achieve duplex communication over
the human body at a maximum speed of 10 Mbps.

RedTacton works through shoes and clothing also.

RedTacton: An innovative Human Area Networking
technology that uses the surface of the human body
as a transmission path .

It uses the minute electric field emitted on the
surface of the human body as a safe high speed
network transmission path.




Also known as P2P NETWORK or PICO net point to
point network.

RedTacton involves initiating communication with a
touch that could result in a wide range of actions in
response. Transmission path is formed when a part
of the human body comes in contact.

HAN uses human body as communication network
and uses the concept of Redtacton to transmit the
data.
HAN transmits the data between the human-
centered electronic devices and computers and
other network devices via total human natural
Physical activities.

Redtacton is based on the
principle that optical
properties of electro-optic
crystal can vary
according to changes
in electric fields


Redtacton allows information to be exchanged between
two transceivers without the need for a server to store
or process information.

Redtacton receiver and transceiver
are two major devices
in the transmission.
Redtacton majorly depends
on the human natural
physical movements
Reciever
Transmitter sends data
Transmitting transceiver
creates a change in the field
Field from human body
dissipates into earth
Electric field is received
using sensing technology
Receiving transceiver
recognizesthe change in the electric field
Sensing technology measures the weak electric fields induced.
Electro-optical crystal uses laser to convert and read the signal

Restrictions over speed in Bluetooth and
infrared tech. in multi-user environment

Redtacton is the Human Area Networking
technology that uses the human body as a
safe high speed networking transmission
path.

RedTacton has 3 functional features
1. TOUCH

2. BROADBAND & INTERACTIVE

3. ANY-MEDIA
Touch: Simple physical movements like touching, Gripping,
sitting, walking are the triggers
for starting the device.

Interactive: As the transmission is the surface of the body,
transmission speed does not deteriorate in congested areas.





Any media: In addition to the human body, various
conductors and dielectrics can be used as
transmission media.





Automobile Applications

Conference Systems

Touch Advertising

Wireless Headset
A Redtacton transceiver can be implanted in the gun and
programmed to a transceiver worn by a soldier so that only
the particular soldier could fire the weapon.
This can reduce the black market of the weapons and the
misuse of stolen weapons can be reduced

Another critical success factor is that the cost must not
outweigh the benefits provided by the technology. Also,
another factor is that the patients accept the technology.

Redtacton devices embedded
medicine bottles transmit
information on the medicines
attributes. If the user touches
the wrong medicine, an alarm
will trigger.
Medical Applications
Consumer Applications:

The seat position and steering
wheel height adjust to
match the driver just by
sitting in the car.


Automatic importing of
personal address book
and Electronic business cards
can be shared by shaking hands

The performance of RedTacton
is better as compared to other
technologies as Wi-Fi,
Bluetooth, IrDA

It is best to connect network
within short distances.

There is no any type of
problem of hackers as our body
itself is the transmission media.
RedTacton does not require the electrode to be in direct
contact with the skin.

Can transmit data at a rate higher than that of peer
technologies. (max. of 10Mbps)

RedTacton transceivers are programmable and we can decide
what to share with whom and what devices you communicate
with.

Each communication occurs in separate channels.

Transmission speed does not deteriorate even though the
number of users increases.
Data loss during transfer is less

Use of minimum amount of power (of some milli -volt
range)

Security is more.

No problem of hackers . It is very hard to pick up
stray electronic signals radiating from the body.

More secure than Bluetooth.

Superior than infrared technology & Wi-Fi.

We conclude that, when we compare RedTacton
with other technology present today it can give a
better performance over others
And we can say that to connect the network with in
short distances RedTacton is best.
In this technology there is no problem of hackers as
our body is itself a media.
