• 'Sixth Sense' is a wearable gestural interface that augments the physical world around us with digital information and lets us use natural hand gestures to interact with that information.

• It augments the physical world around us with digital information and lets us use natural hand gestures to interact with that information.

• It’s an OPENSOURCE technology

What is Sixth Sense Technology ?

• Developed by Pranav Mistry.

• Portable device that is worn around neck

• Consists of:• Camera

• Colored Markers

• Projector

• *a smart phone

• Mirror

Sixth Sense prototype

Sixth Sense prototype (pictorial view)

• Camera: tracks the movement of the colored markers using movement algorithms.

• Colored Markers: Red, blue, green, and yellow tape worn on the users fingertips for tracking purposes.

• Projector: Projects stored data onto most any surface.

• Smart phone: needed for internet connection and computing power

Components

Sixth Sense prototype (pictorial view)

Working

• Make a call

• Check the time

• Create multimedia reading experience

• Drawing application

• Zooming features

• Get product information

• Get book information

• Get flight updates

• Feed information on people

• Take pictures

• Check the email

What it makes EASIER??

• Sixth Sense analyses what the user sees and visually augments surfaces or physical objects the user is interacting with.

Explroing

• WUW projects information onto surfaces, walls, and physical objects around us.

Exploring

• Capture photos with fingers

Explroing

• Check the brand of the Product

• Read Books easily

• Check your Flight Status

Explroing

• Phone Call: You can call to your friend by typing the numbers on your hand. It display the keypad of the phone over your palm and the keys appears on the four finger

Explroing

• Newspapers: Did you saw the moving pictures of the Newspaper in the movie Harry Patter, it is quite similar to it. It Searches the most appropriate video from the web by seeing the headlines or the caption of the News report. Use your another hand's finger to press the keys.

Explroing

• By using sixth sense technology the user can convert any thing as a surface. (wall ,hand, newspaper).

• If we using sixth sense technology it will give u information about the thing you r looking.

Exploring

• The device can be made in current prototype system costs approximately $350 to build.

• In Indian currency 17000/- INR .

• The interesting thing here is that Sixth Sense can never really be more expensive than its individual components

• Sixth Sense hardware and software at present works with smartphones.

• The software’s source code will be available on an open-source model. AS THE STATEMENT OF IT’S MAKER.

Cost & Avaliblity

• Pranav Mistry is the inventor of Sixth Sense.

• He is a research assistant and a PhD candidate at MIT Media Lab.

• Pranav holds a Master in Media Arts and Sciences from MIT and Master of Design from IIT Bombay besides his Bachelor degree in Computer Engineering from Nirma Institute Of Technology, Ahmedabad..

• Sixth Sense has been awarded 2009 Invention Award by Popular Science. Pranav also won Young Innovator Award by Technology Review.
