3. Introduction
Skinput is named because it uses the humanskin
Skinput , is a sensor system.
Skinput allows the user to simply tap their skin in orderto
control audio devices, play games, make phone

What Is Skinput Technology??????
4. Skinput turns the body into a touch screen surface.
Skinput is an “input technology” mainly
used to control mobile devices
Skinput uses a series of sensors totrack
where a user taps on hisarm.
It listen to vibrations in our body
The arm is an instrument
What is skinput
5. Pico projector applies the use of projector in ahand held
device.
An acoustic detector to detect sound vibrations
It needs Bluetooth connection
Components of The Technology
Amicrochip-sized Pico projector
It detects the ultra low frequency.
6. It is also known as pocket projector or
mobile projector.
The system comprises three main parts:
The Laser light source
The Combiner optics
The Scanning mirror
Pico Projector
7. Bio-Acoustics: Sensing
These signals need to be sensed and
workedupon.
This is done by wearing the wave
sensor arm band
Two sensor packagesfocus input on
the arm of
Signals transmitted though denser
bones.

9. ADVANTAGES
No need to interact with the gadget directly.
Don’t have to worry about keypad.
Skinput could also be used without a visual
interface.
People with larger fingers get trouble in
navigating tiny buttons and keyboards on
mobile phones. With Skinput that problem
disappears
10. DISADVANTAGE
Individuals with visible disabilities cannot use thisproduct.
The arm band is currently bulky.
The visibility of the projection of the buttons on the skin can be
reducedif the user has a tattoo located on theirarm.
11. APPLICATION
Using skinput, someone could send text messages by tapping his
or her arm in certain places .
While walking and jogging, we can listen to music.
Mobile
13. CONCLUSIONS
This system performs very well even if the body is
in motion
in the future your hand could be your iPhone and
your handset could be watch-sized on your wrist.
