Sixth Sense is a wearable technology developed by Pranav Mistry that allows users to access digital information by using hand gestures. It consists of a camera, projector, and mirror connected to a smartphone. The camera tracks hand gestures with color markers on the fingers and sends the data to the smartphone for processing. The smartphone then sends information to the projector, which projects the data onto the mirror and surfaces around the user. Some applications include getting the time by drawing a circle on the wrist, projecting maps and making calls. The technology aims to augment the physical world with digital information accessible through natural hand gestures.

3. INTRODUCTION
Sixth
Sense is a wearable gesture interface
that augments the physical world around us
with digital information and lets you use
natural hand gestures to interact with that
information.
 It is developed by Pranav Mistry,a Phd
student in the Fluid Interfaces Group at MIT
media lab.
 Sixth sense prototype is comprised of - a
pocket projector,a mirror and a camera.

4. The
camera,mirror and projector are
connected
wirelessly
to
bluetooth
smartphone device that can easily fit into
user's pocket.
A software then processes the data that is
collected by capturing device and produces
analysis.

5. EARLIER
EXPLORATIONS
Gesture
interface device
Sticky notes
Pen that can draw in 3d
Google Maps in physical
world

6. Why sixth sense
Hereby
physical world is painted with digital
information.
You
can carry your digital world with you
wherever you go.
You
can start with any wall or any other
surface as an interface even your palm.

7. COMPONENTS
1)
CAMERA
2)
PROJECTOR
3)
COLOR MARKERS
4)
MIRROR

8. 1)
CAMERA:
It captures an object in view and tracks the
users hand gestures.
It sends data to smartphone.
It acts as a digital eye,connecting you to
world of digital information.

9. 2)
PROJECTOR:
The projector projects visual information enabling
surfaces and physical objects to be used as
interfaces.
The projector contains a battery inside with 3 hours
of battery life.
A tiny LED projector displays data sent from the
smartphone on any surface in view.

10. 3) COLOR MARKERS:
It is at the tip of user's fingers.
Marking the user's fingers with color tapes
helps the web cam recognize gestures.
The movements and arrangements of these
markers are interpreted into gestures that act as
instructions for projected application interfaces.

11. 4) MIRROR:
The usage of mirror is significant as the
projector dangles pointing downwards from
the neck.

12. SMARTPHONE:
A web enabled smartphone in user's pocket
processes the video data.
Other software searches web and interprets
the hand gestures.

13. WORKING:

14.  Firstly,the images, pictures or gestures
are captured by the camera.
These images are then send to smartphone
for processing.
After being processed,the information is
send to the projector.
The projector projects the images onto the
mirror.
The mirror displays the information on the
desired surface.

15. APPLICATIONS

16. 1)
Check the time: Draw a circle on your
wrist to get a virtual watch that gives you
correct time.

17. 2) Create multimedia reading experiences:
Sixth sense can be programmed to project
related videos onto newspaper articles
you are reading.

18. 3) Make a call:
You can use sixth sense to project keypad
onto your hand,then virtual keypad to make a
call.

19. 4) Call a map:
With map application,we can call up map of
our choice and then use thumbs and index
fingers to navigate a map.

20. 5) Drawing application:
By using sixth sense prototype,we can draw
on any surface by using our fingers.

21. 6 ) Zooming features:
By using sixth sense prototype,the user can
zoom in or zoom out pictures by using
intuitive hand movements.

22. ADVANTAGES
Portable
Connects digital world and physical world.
Supports multitouch and multiuser
interaction.
Cost effective
Data access directly from machine in real
time.

23. CONCLUSION
Sixth
sense recognizes the objects around
us,displaying information automatically and
letting us to access it in anyway we need.
In
simple,it is almost like installing a digital
system(computer) into our body and further
making it as sixth sense of our body.
The
sixth sense prototype implements
several applications that demonstrate the
usefulness and flexibility of system.
