This is a device which has been invented by an Indian PRANAV MISTRY in the year 2008, Since many of us didn't know about this device My presentation is about 6th sense technology & its working principle & its applications

2. INTRODUCTION
Sixth Sense in scientific (or non-scientific) terms is defined as Extra
Sensory Perception or in short ESP
The technology instead allows users to be part of the physical world
and still access the digital information existing of World Wide Web
“Sixth Sense” attempts to free information from its confines by
seamlessly integrating it with reality, and making entire world your
computer.
Our ordinary computers will soon be able to sense the different feelings
accumulated in surroundings it is all gift of “Sixth sense technology”

3. SIXTH SENSE DEVICE
What is sixth sense device ?
Sixth Sense is a wearable gestural interface device that augments
the physical world with digital information
Sixth Sense comprises a pocket projector, a mirror and a camera.
The components are coupled in a pendant like mobile wearable device

4. TECHNOLOGIES RELATED TO SIXTH SENSE DEVICE
Augmented Reality
 It is a visualization technology allows the
user to experience the virtual experience
added over real world in real time.
 It adds graphics, sounds, hepatic feedback
and smell to the natural world as it exists
Gesture recognition
 It is a technology which is aimed at
interpreting human gestures with the help of
mathematical algorithms
 This technique basically special type of
hand gloves provide information about hand
position orientation and flux of the fingers

5. TECHNOLOGIES(cont..)
Gestures types
Free hand gestures
Iconic gestures
Multi touch gestures
Radio Frequency Identification
 This system transmit the identity of an object wirelessly, using radio
magnetic waves.
 The main purpose of this technology is to enable the transfer of a
data via portable device
 This technology is widely used in the fields like asset tracking,
management , manufacturing payment system etc.

6. TECHNOLOGIES(cont..)
Computer vision
 Computer vision is the technology in which machines are able to
interpret necessary information from an image
 It includes various fields like image processing, image analysis and
machine vision it includes certain aspect of artificial intelligence like
Pattern recognition

7. COMPONENTS
Camera
Projector
Mirror
Smart phone
Color markers

8. COMPONENTS
CAMERA
The camera is the key input device Act as digital eye of the system
Captures an object in view and tracks the user’s hand gestures It sends
the data to smart phone
MIRROR
The usage of the mirror is significant as the projector dangles pointing
downwards from the neck
COLOR MARKERS
Four colour markers are used they are interpreted into gestures
It act as interaction instructions for the projected application interfaces

9. COMPONENTS(cont..)
PROJECTOR
It projects visual information enabling surfaces and physical objects to
be used as interfaces
The project itself contains a battery inside, with 3hours of battery life.
A tiny LED projector displays data sent from the smart phone on any
surface in view- object, wall or a person
SMART PHONE
A web engaged smartphone in the user’s pocket process the video data
Other software searches the Web and interprets the hand gestures

10. WORKING OF SIXTH SENSE DEVICE
The projector projects visual images on a surface. Thus, the
entire world is available on your screen now
When the user moves their hands with coloured markers on
the finger tips, the camera captures these movements. Both the
projector and the camera are connected to the mobile computing
device
Recognition is made using computer vision technique markers
act as visual tracking fiducially
Software program process this video stream data and
interprets the movements into gestures. The gestures are
different from one another and re assigned some commands
Example:@ is used for opening email

11. WORKING(cont..)
The mirror reflects the image formed by the projector to front.The
entire hard ware is fabricated in the form of pendant
Thus, digital information is freed from its confines and placed in the
physical word
It works very similar like a touch screen phone with entire world as the
screen

12. APPLICATIONS

13. OUR IDEA ON SIXTH SENSE

14. ADVANTAGES
 It is a user friendly interface which integrates digital information
 It does not change human habits but causes computer and other
machines to adapt to human needs
 It uses hand gestures to interact with digital information. Support
multi-touch and multi-user interaction
 Data access directly from machine in real time.
 It is gesture-controlled wearable computing device that feeds our
relevant information and turns any surface into an interactive display

15. CONCLUSION AND FUTURE SCOPE
Conclusion
 This technology can be used as a replacement of the 5th senses
for handicapped peoples & provide easy control over
machineries
 The device software is going to be open source. This will enable
individuals to make their own apps depending upon needs
Future scope
 As this technology will emerge may be new devices and hence
forth new markets will evolve. Mystery made own tablet
computer using a just piece of paper, a microphone and a
camera
 There will be a significant market competitor to the Sixth
technology since it still required some hardware involvement with
the user
