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.
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.
(1) CAMERA:
(a)It captures an object in view and tracks the users hand gestures.
(b)It sends data to smartphone.
©It acts as a digital eye,connecting you to world of digital information
(2) PROJECTOR:
(a) The projector projects visual information enabling surfaces and physical objects to be used as interfaces.
(b)The projector itself 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 – object,wall or person.
(3) COLOR MARKERS:
(a) It is at the tip of user's fingers.
(b)Marking the user's fingers with red,yellow,green and blue tape helps the web cam recognize gestures.
©The movements and arrangements of these markers are interpreted into gestures that act as interaction instructions for projected application interfaces.
(4) MIRROR:
(a) The usage of mirror is significant as the projector dangles pointing downwards from the neck.
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,viability and flexibility of system.
