Sixth Sense technology of Pranav Mistry

'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.

Sixth Sense technology of Pranav MistryThe SixthSense prototype comprises a pocket projector, a mirror and a camera contained in a pendant like wearable device. Both the projector and the camera are connected to a mobile computing device in the user’s pocket. The projector projects visual information enabling surfaces, walls and physical objects around us to be used as interfaces; while the camera recognizes and tracks users' hand gestures and physical objects using computer-vision based techniques.



Sixth Sense prototypes cost approximately $350 to build, the main cost being the micro-projector.

Hardware and Software Detail :

It is very generous of Pranav Mistry that he had announced in Nov 2009 that the source code will be released under Open Source. You can find a sixth sense open-source page here.
