'Sixth Sense' technology is a wearable gestural interface that enhances physical interactions with digital information through natural hand gestures and was developed by Pranav Mistry. It comprises several components including a camera, projector, microphone, and markers, enabling a range of applications such as making calls and recognizing products. While the technology offers advantages like portability and multi-touch support, it raises concerns regarding health issues and privacy.

3. 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 can turn any surface into a touch-screen for
computing, controlled by simple hand gestures.
 It was invented by STEVE MANNSTEVE MANN and developed
by PRANAV MISTRYPRANAV MISTRY in 2003 in MIT MEDIA
LAB

5. CAMERA
 Captures an object
in view and tracks
the user’s hand
gestures.
  It sends the data
to smart phone.
  It acts as a
digital eye

6. PROJECTOR
 A tiny LED
projector
 It projects visual
information enabling
surfaces and
physical objects to
be used as
interfaces.

7. MICROPHONE
 microphone is an
optionaloptional component
of the SixthSense.
 It is used to convert
a paper into a
computing interface.

8. MIRROR AND
SMARTPHONE
 The usage of the mirror
is significant as the
projector dangles
pointing downwards
from the neck
 It searches the Web
and interprets the hand
gestures

9. MARKERS
 It is at the tip of the
user’s fingers .
 The movements and
arrangements of these
makers are interpreted
into gestures that act
as interaction
instructions for the
projected application
interfaces.

11. APPLICATIONS
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.

12. With the map
application we can
call up the map of
our choice and then
use thumbs and
index fingers to
navigate the map.
CALL UP A MAP

13. CHECK THE TIME
Draw a circle
on your wrist
to get a virtual
watch that
gives you the
correct time.

14. GET PRODUCT
INFORMATION
 Sixth Sense uses
image recognition to
recognize products
we pick up, then
feeds us
information on
those products.

15. FEED INFORMATION ON
PEOPLE
• It will project the
information of any
particular person
after recognizing
face , if information
of that face is
available on the
database to which
smartphone is
connected

16. TAKING PICTURES
• If we arrange our index fingers and thumbs in
"framing""framing" gesture then it will take a picture

17. ADVANTAGES
 Portability of device
 Supports multi touch
 Visualization of Digital WorldDigital World
 Time saving
 Cost effective

18. DISADVANTAGES
Health issues due to the effective
projection quality.
 Privacy concerns.
 Still need modification to reduce its
maintanance cost
