ETRI / KATS / AMPLET Communication Laboratory

The 8th Joint Seminar on Human Body Communication Standards, Collaboration between Korea and Japan held in Tokyo and Yokohama between March 19 and 21, 2018.

As some Japanese companies which had an interest in human body communication offered Dr. NEBIYA Hideyuki that they would need a place for discussing on human body communication in Japan, he established "Human Body Communication Consortium (HBCC)" in June of 2017. We expect that HBC business will be popular in the very near future all over the world.
