History

The SixthSense technology was first implemented as the neckworn 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.

Steve Mann is the father of Sixth Sense who made a wearable computer in 1970.

Introduction of Sixth Sense Technology

Sixth Sense Technology integrates digital information into the physical world and its objects, making the entire world your computer.

It can turn any surface into a touch-screen for computing, controlled by simple hand gestures.

It is not a technology which is aimed at changing human habits but causing computers and other machines to adapt to human needs.

It also supports multi user and multi touch provisions.

Sixth Sense device is a mini-projector coupled with a camera and a cell phone-which acts as the computer and your connection to the Cloud, all the information stored on the web.

The camera, mirror and projector is connected wirelessly to a blue tooth smart phone device that can easily fit into the user's pocket.

The current prototype costs around $350.

A software then processes the data that is collected by the capturing device and produces analysis.

The software that is used in sixth sense device is open source type.

Gesture Recognition Gesture recognition can be seen as a way for computers to begin to understand human body language, thus building a richer bridge between machines and humans.

Gesture recognition enables humans to communicate with the machine and interact naturally without any mechanical devices.

Using the concept of gesture recognition, it is possible to point a finger at the computer screen so that the cursor will move accordingly.

In the early versions of gesture recognition process special type of hand gloves which provide information about hand position orientation and flux of the fingers.

In the Sixth Sense devices colored bands are used for this purpose.
