The hardware that makes Sixth Sensework is a pendant like mobile wearableinterfaceIt has a camera, a mirror and a projector and is connected wirelessly to aBluetooth smart phone that can slipcomfortably into ones pocketThe camera recognizes
individuals,images, pictures, gestures one makeswith their handsInformation is sent t o the Smartphonefor processing
The downward-facing projector projectsthe output image on to the mirror Mirror reflects image on to the desiredsurfaceThus, digital information is freed fromits confines and placed in the physicalworld RELATED TECHNOLOGIES

Gesture recognition is a topic incomputer science and l anguagetechnology with the goal of
Computer vision is the sci enceand technology of machines that see. Itis concerned with the theory behindartificial systems that extract informationfrom images.
aggingtechnology that allows the detection,tracking of tags and consequently theobje cts that they are affixed to. APPLICATIONSMake a call You can use the Sixth Sense to project akeypad onto your hand, then use that virtual keypad to make a call. Call up a map With the map application we can call upthe map of our choice
and then use thumbs and index fingers to navigate themap Check the time Draw a circle on your wrist to get a virtual watch that gives you the correcttime Create multimedia readin g experiences Sixth Sense can be programmed toproject related videos o nto newspaper articles you are reading
Drawing application The drawing application l ets the user draw on any surface by tracking the fin gertip movements of the users indexfinger Zooming features The user can zoom in or zoom out usingintuitive hand movements Get product information Sixth Sense uses image recognition or marker technology to recognize productswe pick up, and

to sort throughthe photos, and organize and resizethem. ADVANTAGES Portable Supports multi-touch and multi-user interaction Connectedness between worldand information Cost effective
It is an open source CONCLUSION Sixth Sense recognizes the objectsaround us, displaying informationautomatically and letting us to access itin any way we needThe Sixth
Sense prototype implementsseveral applications that demonstrate theusefulness, viability and flexibility of thesystemAllowing us to interact with thisinformation via natural hand gesturesThe potential of becoming the ultimate"transparent" user interface for accessinginformation about everything around us
