    The document describes Sixth Sense, a wearable gestural interface developed by Pranav Mistry. It consists of a pocket projector, mirror, and camera coupled in a pendant-like mobile device. The camera captures images and tracks hand gestures, sending the data to a smartphone to interpret gestures and search the web. The projector projects this information onto surrounding surfaces, allowing the user to interact with and access digital information through natural hand gestures near the projected area. Some applications mentioned include checking the time by drawing on the wrist, getting product information through image recognition, and making calls on a virtual keypad projected onto the palm.

    CONTENTS
    Introduction Components Working Applications

    INTRODUCTION
    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 was developed by Pranav Mistry, a PhD student in the Fluid Interfaces Group at the MIT Media Lab.

    SixthSense bridges the gap by bringing intangible, digital information out


    into the tangible world, and allowing us to interact with this information via natural hand

    SixthSense comprises a pocket projector, a mirror and a camera. The


    hardware components are coupled in a pendant like mobile wearable device

    WHY SIXTH SENSE?

    COMPONENTS
    The hardware components are coupled in a pendant like mobile wearable device.

    Mirror Smartphone Camera Projector

    Colored Markers

    Mirror

    MIRROR

    The usage of the mirror is significant as the projector dangles pointing downwards from the neck.

    Smart Phone

    A Web-enabled smart phone in the users pocket processes the video data Other software searches the Web and interprets the hand gestures

    Camera

    Projector

    Captures an object in view and tracks the users hand gestures It sends the data to smart phone It acts as a digital eye, connecting you to the world of digital information

    The projector projects visual information enabling surfaces and physical objects to be used as interfaces The project itself contains a battery inside, with 3 hours of battery life.

    Color Markers

    It is at the tip of the users fingers . Marking the users fingers with red, yellow, green, and blue tape helps the webcam recognize gestures

    The movements and arrangements of these makers are interpreted into gestures that act as interaction instructions for the projected application interfaces.

    HOW IT WORKS?
    Send for processing capture Images Pictures Gestures

    Send Info Project image


    Reflect on desired surface

    Info on surface

    APPLICATIONS

    Check the time just by


    drawing a circle on the wrist.

    Watch related videos


    on the newspaper articles you are reading.

    To make a call, virtual


    keypad is shown on your palm.

    Get product
    information by using image recognition technology.

    Get book reviews,


    ratings & other relevant information.

    Get flight updates


    regarding timing of the flight.

    Projects relevant
    information regarding a person.

    Click pictures just by


    forming framing gesture.

    Organize, sort & resize


    pictures by projecting them on a surface.

    ADVANTAGES
    Portable Supports multi-touch and multi-user interaction Connectedness between world and information Cost effective Data access directly from machine in real time

    Mind map the idea anywhere It is an open source

    CONCLUSION
    Sixth Sense recognizes the objects around us, displaying information automatically and letting us to access it in any way we need The Sixth Sense prototype implements several applications that demonstrate the usefulness, viability and flexibility of the system

    Allowing us to interact with this information via natural hand gestures IT WILL NOT END UP IN MAKING US MACHINES SITTING IN FRONT OF OTHER MACHINES!!
