SixthSense: Making The World Your Computer

I was browsing my Facebook feeds on Skype 5.0 when I encountered this video that really catered to my tech curiosity.

The video was about SixthSense technology being demoed by its inventor, Pranav Mistry.

Using a camera and a mini projector mounted pieced together into a pendant-like wearable technology called SixthSense, Primav Mistry made Microsoft's Surface Table, Apple's iNventions, Google's Earth and whatnots like expensive grade-school class projects.

'SixthSense' sees what you see and visually augments any surfaces or objects we are interacting with. It projects information onto surfaces, walls, and physical objects around us, and lets us interact with the projected information through natural hand gestures, arm movements, or our interaction with the object itself. 'SixthSense' attempts to free information from its confines by seamlessly integrating it with reality, and thus making the entire world your computer.

Were you like "Whaa?!" or "Huh?!" Think Tom Cruise's Minority Report or better yet, check out the video



SixthSense is currently a work in progress but as soon as Primav Mistry has it perfected, everything is going to be open sourced.
