Sixth Sense Technology & Its Applications
Ranjeet Daroga, Nishantraj Pandey · 2015
In this paper we worked on a new type of technology which is going to be soon launched in the market .Its name is the sixth sense technology. It's a wearable interface that augments the physical world around us with the digital information. It's just born concept which allows user to connect with the internet seamlessly. Without use of keyboard, mouse we can see videos access, change, move data simply. his technology is a revolutionary way to interface the physical world with digital information. Modern technologies include the touch screen techniques which is used widely and it makes ease of operation and saves utilisation time. Sixth sense is a wearable gestural interface that augments the physical world around us with digital information and lets us use natural hand gestures to interact with that information. But the bottle necks of this method such as position of camera, for capturing gestures interprets the accuracy in the projected output, lead to use of commands instead of hand gestures. The position of camera is a major constraint in the image capturing and projected output efficiency and accuracy. Therefore the actions which we regularly perform in our daily life, are converted to commands and are trained to a speech IC .They are stored as a database in the integrated circuit and corresponding actions are performed when the speech is recognised from the user. It's a hi-tech device seamlessly integrate Analog information with our everyday physical world. The voice is directly performed into operation within fractions of seconds, and the action is projected on the surface. It's a portable device and eases the operation which we regularly perform. Basically the sixth sense technology concept involves the use of hand gestures .the finger tip will contain coloured markers and hence gestures performed will be captured by the camera. Then it's given to the mobile device for the corresponding action to be performed. The action is projected on the surface through the projector. Software algorithms and computer vision technologies will be used to enable the action from the mobile device for the corresponding gesture captured in the camera. This gesture based technology is used for variety of applications like performing basic actions, locating points in the map, watching video in newspaper, dialling number in hand etc. The slight modification of this method lead to the use of commands that is analog information into real world. The analog data is converted into digital and performed as action, as all times the hand gestures cannot be used.
