2. What is redtacton?
• uses the surface of the human body as a safe, high
speed network transmission path.
• minute electric field emitted
• works through shoes and clothing as well.
• Can achieve duplex communication upto speed of 10mbps

3. WORKING
Transmitter
induces weak
electric field.
Sensor detects
and reaches RED
TACTON receiver.
Signals are
processed and
data downloaded.

4. MECHANISM OF
COMMUNICATION
• Transmitter sends data
• Electric field is
received using sensing
technology
• Field from human body
dissipates into earth
• sensing technology
measures the weak
electric fields induced.
