Human Intranet

- Overview

The "Human Intranet" is a concept describing a network of interconnected devices on or around the human body, acting as a platform to enhance human capabilities. 

It's analogous to the Internet, with a decentralized, scalable structure of diverse, collaborating nodes (sensors, actuators, etc.) working together to deliver services, even with size, energy, and environmental limitations. 

This interconnected system aims to augment human abilities and potentially revolutionize how we interact with the world.

• Open and Scalable Platform: The Human Intranet is designed to be adaptable and expandable, accommodating a growing number of interconnected devices without performance degradation.
• Heterogeneous Mesh of Nodes: The platform integrates diverse technologies like sensors, processors, actuators, storage, and communication devices, forming a network that can adapt to various situations.
• Symbiosis with the Body: The system works in harmony with the body's natural functions, potentially enhancing or augmenting them.
• Guaranteeing Services: The network strives to provide reliable and consistent service delivery despite the challenges of size, power consumption, and environmental factors.
• Organic Development: Like the Internet, the Human Intranet is envisioned to evolve organically, with new nodes and functionalities being added over time says micro 2025.
• Applications: The concept encompasses various applications, including health monitoring (e.g., closed-loop blood sugar control), augmentation (e.g., enhanced vision), and potentially even control of exoskeletons.
• Evolution from IoT: The Human Intranet builds upon the principles of the Internet of Things (IoT) but focuses specifically on human-centric applications.
• Potential Impact: It promises to transform how we interact with our environment, observe, operate, and extend ourelves.
