A minimal try to describe the smart work of my fellow Indian.

1. Integrating
information with
the real world

2. ABOUT
 'SixthSense' 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.
 Information is confined traditionally on paper or
digitally on a screen. SixthSense bridges this gap
and allow us to interact with this information via
natural hand gestures.
 The SixthSense prototype is comprised of a
pocket projector, a mirror and a camera.

3. PROGRESS OF SIXTHSENSE
 developed at MIT Media Lab by Steve Mann in
1994 and 1997 (headworn gestural interface), and
1998 (neckworn version).
 And further developed by Pranav Mistry (also at
MIT Media Lab), in 2009, both of whom developed
both hardware and software for both headworn
and neckworn versions of it.

4. WORKING

5. WORKING
 Both the projector and the camera are connected to the
mobile computing device in the user’s pocket. The
projector projects visuals in the walls and physical
objects around us.
 The camera tracks user's hand gestures and software
program processes the video stream data captured by
the camera and tracks the locations of the colored
markers(visual tracking fiducials).
 The maximum number of tracked fingers is only
constrained by the number of unique fiducials, thus
SixthSense also supports multi-touch and multi-user
interaction.

7. PRESENT CONDITION
 It doesn't seem to be coming anytime soon because of
the fact that it will not suit the market in its current form
and will need lot of improvements.
 we can say that this revolutionary technology is not
dead but still active.
 Microsoft may use this in its upcoming projects like
light space.
 At present, Pranav mistry, the developer of this project
is the Global Senior Vice President of Research at
Samsung.
 In the past, he has worked with Microsoft, Google,
CMU, NASA, UNESCO, Japan Science & Technology.
