- #24 Synaptics Fuse prototype.Sixth Sense by MIT Fluid Interfaces Group.Make a call. You can use the Sixth Sense to project a keypad onto your hand, then use that virtual keypad to make a call. Call up a map. With the map application you can call up the map of your choosing, project it onto a nearby surface, and then use your thumbs and index fingers to navigate the map, for example, to zoom in and out and do other controls. Take pictures. If you fashion your index fingers and thumbs into a square (the typical "framing" gesture), the system will snap a photo. After taking the desired number of photos, you can project them onto a surface, and use gestures to sort through the photos, and organize and resize them. Create multimedia reading experiences. Sixth Sense can be programmed to project related videos onto newspaper articles you are reading. Call up e-mail. By gesturing the @ sign, you can call up and use e-mail. Get flight updates. The system will recognize your boarding pass and let you know whether your flight is on time and if the gate has changed. Additional input: QR codes, voice
