HAN & Technology
RedTacton
How It works
Features
Application
An emerging field of
communications technology
with the potential to offer
significant advantages to
Pervasive computing.
(military operations, smart
home etc).
Overview of Technology (1/2)
-1988
Ubiquitous computing -“era
that replaces PCs with
invincible computers
embedded into everyday
Mark Weiser, 1952-1999
objects.”
Father and founder of
ubiquitous computing.

RedTacton
RedTacton (1/2)
• It leverages the conductive
properties of the human body to
transfer data among electronic
devices.
Embedded Receiver
•Transmission rate: 10Mbp
•Protocol: TCP/IP
•Transmission method: Half-duplex
•External device interface: 10BASE-T
Security application
Comparing with other Network Technologies
Ultra Wideband
Comparison with other network
Conclusion
Unlike wireless, interception is difficult and security can
be considered to be high with RedTacton
When we compare this with other technology present
today it can give a better performance over others
It conforms to the “Radio Frequency-Exposure
protection Standard (RCR STD-38)” issued by the
Association of Radio Industries and Business (ARIB)
Still undergoing development: doesn’t work reliably yet.
(common with emergence of new technology)
Supports the vision & future of pervasive computing
