Panasonic is all set to create new value for its customers at the company’s latest technologies and solutions at ‘CEATEC Japan 2018,’ that are being held from October 4 to 7 in Tokyo.
Under the theme of "Transformation IoT brings to Lifestyles and Business," the Panasonic booth will consists of two main zones: "Business solutions and Lifestyle at home Area" where visitors can have a glimpse of how technology changes life in commercial and residential spaces; and "Technology and Devices Area" which will introduce the company's latest Internet of Things (IoT)-related technologies, solutions and devices, including those under development with the aim of achieving co-creation with visitors.
Under the latter, Panasonic recently demonstrated a prototype communication system where data could be transmitted from one person to another through a simple touch.
Panasonic said that this communication module employs electric-field communication technology to achieve "thing-to-thing, human-to-human and human-to-thing" communication, creating a world where natural gestures enable authentication and communication.
While the demo is quite basic and there isn’t a lot of information that is revealed at the moment, the system surely works.
