I recently came across Pranav Mistry’s Sizth Sense Technology during a discussion with one of my friend working in PLC Programming. Then I googled about this and found it very interesting. I was very proud about it because this wonderful technology is developed by an Indian (Gujarati- Ahmedabad).

Its a virtual world that integrates amazingly in the real world and I can’t imagine the revolution this will bring in the world we live today.

To understand what I’m saying, YOU MUST watch Pranav Mistry: The thrilling potential of Sixth Sense technology | Video on TED.com

Just a few minute video but you just can’t miss it. I highly recommend every visitor of my blog to watch it and spread this with the word of mouth or mouse.

It is more than just an imagination that how the world will change by this technology. There won’t be any more need to carry your laptop and i/o devices. It is the best practice to make our analog world with high level and very very easy interaction with digital world.

The Sixth Sense prototype is comprised of a pocket projector, a mirror and a camera. The hardware components are coupled in a pendant like mobile wearable device. Both the projector and the camera are connected to the mobile computing device in the user’s pocket. The projector projects visual information enabling surfaces, walls and physical objects around us to be used as interfaces; while the camera recognizes and tracks user’s hand gestures and physical objects using computer-vision based techniques. The software program processes the video stream data captured by the camera and tracks the locations of the colored markers (visual tracking fiducially) at the tip of the user’s fingers using simple computer-vision techniques. The movements and arrangements of these fiducially are interpreted into gestures that act as interaction instructions for the projected application interfaces. The maximum number of tracked fingers is only constrained by the number of unique fiducially, thus Sixth Sense also supports multi-touch and multi-user interaction.

The software are going to be an open source software and it will be a great effort for mankind as this technology has potential to reach to the common men in their daily routine.
