The Next level of mobile computing

Pranav Mistry, a 28-year old Indian-born researcher at the Media Lab, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), is the brain behind the "Sixth Sense" device. The "Sixth Sense" device (patented by MIT) contains a pocket projector, mirror and web camera bunched together in a wearable pendant-like mobile.

The device actually responds to our hand gestures. However it requires us to wear a little hand glove probably very skinny one, so that the camera can understand our gestures.

A "square frame" gesture will prompt the device to click a photo. The user can also stop by any surface or wall and flick through the photos taken. The device also allows a user to draw icons or symbols in the air using the index finger which is being recognized as interaction instructions. For instance, drawing an "@" symbol will let a user check his/her mail. The digital Sixth Sense device is an effort to bridge the gap between intangible and tangible world, allowing us to interact with the information via natural hand gestures.
