3. INTRODUCTION
Sixth
Sense is a wearable gesture interface
that augments the physical world around us
with digital information and lets you use
natural hand gestures to interact with that
information.
 It is developed by Pranav Mistry,a Phd
student in the Fluid Interfaces Group at MIT
media lab.
 Sixth sense prototype is comprised of - a
pocket projector,a mirror and a camera.

4. The
camera,mirror and projector are
connected
wirelessly
to
bluetooth
smartphone device that can easily fit into
user's pocket.
A software then processes the data that is
collected by capturing device and produces
analysis.

5. EARLIER
EXPLORATIONS
Gesture
interface device
Sticky notes
Pen that can draw in 3d
Google Maps in physical
world

6. Why sixth sense
Hereby
physical world is painted with digital
information.
You
can carry your digital world with you
wherever you go.
You
can start with any wall or any other
surface as an interface even your palm.

7. COMPONENTS
1)
CAMERA
2)
PROJECTOR
3)
COLOR MARKERS
4)
MIRROR

8. 1)
CAMERA:
It captures an object in view and tracks the
users hand gestures.
It sends data to smartphone.
It acts as a digital eye,connecting you to
world of digital information.

9. 2)
PROJECTOR:
The projector projects visual information enabling
surfaces and physical objects to be used as
interfaces.
The projector contains a battery inside with 3 hours
of battery life.
A tiny LED projector displays data sent from the
smartphone on any surface in view.

10. 3) COLOR MARKERS:
It is at the tip of user's fingers.
Marking the user's fingers with color tapes
helps the web cam recognize gestures.
The movements and arrangements of these
markers are interpreted into gestures that act as
instructions for projected application interfaces.

11. 4) MIRROR:
The usage of mirror is significant as the
projector dangles pointing downwards from
the neck.

12. SMARTPHONE:
A web enabled smartphone in user's pocket
processes the video data.
Other software searches web and interprets
the hand gestures.

13. WORKING:

14.  Firstly,the images, pictures or gestures
are captured by the camera.
These images are then send to smartphone
for processing.
After being processed,the information is
send to the projector.
The projector projects the images onto the
mirror.
The mirror displays the information on the
desired surface.

15. APPLICATIONS

16. 1)
Check the time: Draw a circle on your
wrist to get a virtual watch that gives you
correct time.

17. 2) Create multimedia reading experiences:
Sixth sense can be programmed to project
related videos onto newspaper articles
you are reading.

18. 3) Make a call:
You can use sixth sense to project keypad
onto your hand,then virtual keypad to make a
call.

19. 4) Call a map:
With map application,we can call up map of
our choice and then use thumbs and index
fingers to navigate a map.

20. 5) Drawing application:
By using sixth sense prototype,we can draw
on any surface by using our fingers.

21. 6 ) Zooming features:
By using sixth sense prototype,the user can
zoom in or zoom out pictures by using
intuitive hand movements.

22. ADVANTAGES
Portable
Connects digital world and physical world.
Supports multitouch and multiuser
interaction.
Cost effective
Data access directly from machine in real
time.

23. CONCLUSION
Sixth
sense recognizes the objects around
us,displaying information automatically and
letting us to access it in anyway we need.
In
simple,it is almost like installing a digital
system(computer) into our body and further
making it as sixth sense of our body.
The
sixth sense prototype implements
several applications that demonstrate the
usefulness and flexibility of system.
