Introduction
It is Gestural Interphase device.
It related the physical world around us with digital
information.
It is wearable technology.
The hardware are coupled in pendant.
It uses hand movement to interact with information.
History
Steve Mann is father of sixth sense who made a
wearable computer in 1990.
The Sixth Sense Technology was first implemented
as the neck worn projector + camera system.
He was a media lab student at that time.
There after it was used and
implemented by an Indian
who is the man has become
very famous in the recent
Pranav Mistry.
What is Sixth Sense Technology
This sixth sense This technology has a wide
technology provides us application in the field of
with the freedom of artificial intelligence.
interacting with the
digital world using hand
gestures.
Component
Camera :
Captures an object in view
Sends the data to smart phone
Acts as digital eye
Connects to the world of digital information
Projectors:
Key output of Sixth Sense System
Visually augments surfaces, walls and
physical objects
It runs on a rechargeable battery
 Coloured Markers
It is at the tip of users fingers
Marking the users fingers with red, yellow, green &
blue helps the webcam recognize the gestures
Movements and arrangements are interrupted into
gestures
Working
The hardware that makes Sixth Sense work is a
pendant like mobile wearable interface.
It has a camera , a mirror and a projector and is
connected to a Bluetooth smart phone.
The camera recognize image, gestures one makes
with their hands
Working
Application
The Drawing application lets user
draw on any surface by observing

Mapping can also be done
anywhere with the features of
zooming in or zooming out.
Check the Time, all one has to do
is to just gesture drawing circle on the
wrist and there appears a wrist watch.
 Taking Pictures Another application of sixth sense
devices is the implementation of a gestural camera.
Advantages
Portable
Supports multi-touch & multi-user interface
Connect the physical world with the digital
information
Cost effective
Mind map the idea anywhere
It is an open source
Disadvantages
Hardware limitation of device, that we currently
carry around with us.
Post process can be occur.
No security.
Device compatability.
Future Scope:
Face based retailing system.
Reading live newspaper.
Zooming picture for Image grabbing.
Conclusion
Recognizes the objects around us- lets us access it in
the way we want
Implements several applications that demonstrates its
application-viability and flexibility
Allows us to interact with the information via natural
hand gestures
It is makes our daily tasks more efficient just with
simple gestures.
