3. Introduction
It’s a project of Google ATAP(Advanced Technology and
Projects group )
It has many projects under it
Some of them has been previously discussed in this seminar
class like:- Project Jacquard, Google self driving car, Project
ARA
Our hands and fingers are the best way we have to interact
with smart devices.
One of the reasons is also the decreasing size of the screens

4. What is project soli…?
Project Soli is a sensor that uses the radar technology
Can easily be used in even the smallest wearable's that fits
within a tiny chip.
It is capable of accurately detecting your hand
movements in real-time.
Its like Motion and other gesture-tracking controllers.

5. What a Radar is ?...
Radar is a Technology
Radar is an object-detection system that uses Radio
Waves to determine the range, angle, or velocity of objects.
It is used by Army and Defence agencies to track
movements of enemy
Sends Radio waves towards the target and its receiver
intercepts the motion

7. About project soli
Founder Ivan Poupyrev in 2015.
The soli is small in size of a 5x5 mm
It has a sensor which capture sub millimetres of motions of
fingers in 3D space.
The team has created a radar which has the interaction sensor
running at 60GHz.
It captures motions of fingers at a phenomenal rate of 10,000
frames per second
It uses 4 way pipeline for this.

8. Working
The tiny circuit board is able determine the hand size,
motion and velocity.
It then uses machine-learning to translate these
movements to pre-programmed commands .
Dopler effect to detect speed.

9. What is Machine Learning ?...
Machine learning is a subfield of computer science
that evolved from the study of pattern recognition and
computational learning theory in artificial
intelligence

12. Advantages
Allows to control Gadgets with gestures.
Allows free hand typing.
Good Accuracy over control.
Need not to carry gadgets while using them.

14. Disadvantages
It has a very small radar range.
Multiple gestures could not be possible.
Highly Expensive.
Security Threat.

15. Conclusion
One of the big problems with wearable devices right
now is inputs - there's no simple way to control these
devices.
Therefore gestures will be used by individuals to carry
out certain functions with electronic machines such as
Smartphone's and desktops.
