ABSTRACT: 'Sixth Sense' is a wearable
gestural interface that augments the physical
world around us with digital information and
we use natural hand gestures to interact with
that information. TED (Technology,
Entertainment, Design ) is a working
prototype of a multifunctional device that
can become part of our lives in five years to
ten. Set named “sixth sense” consists of a
camera (it captures the movement of hands),
the projector (it produces the image on any
surface), the mobile phone (it is in your
pocket and need only to communicate with
the abstract database server) and four fingers
on which to detect movements, wearing
colorful caps, perceived by the camera .
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) is an
electronic tagging technology that allows the
detection and tracking of tags, and
consequently the objects they are af-fixed to.
Sixth Sense focuses on applying RFID to an
enterprise setting, such as a corporate office
or university
department. In short Sixth Sense represents
a form of mobile computing applied to non-
computing entities.
INTRODUCTION:
All of us are aware of the five basic senses –
seeing, feeling, smelling, tasting and
hearing. But there is also another sense
called the sixth sense. It is basically a
connection to something greater than what
their physical senses are able to perceive. To
a layman, it would be something
supernatural. Some might just consider it to
be a superstition or something
psychological. But the invention of sixth
sense technology has completely shocked
the world. Although it is not widely known
as of now but the time is not far when this
technology will change our perception of the
world.
Sixth Sense Technology is a mini-projector
coupled with a camera and a cell phone—
which acts as the computer and connected to
the Cloud, all the information stored on the
web. Sixth Sense can also obey hand
gestures. The camera recognizes objects
around a person instantly, with the micro-
projector overlaying the information on any
surface, including the object itself or hand.
Also can access or manipulate the
information using fingers. make a call by
Extend hand on front of the projector and
numbers will appear for to click.

COMPONENTS AND
PRINCIPAL:
The Sixth Sense prototype is composed of a
pocket projector, a mirror, and a camera.
The hardware components are coupled in a
pendant-like mobile wearable device. Both
the projector and the camera are connected
to the mobile computing device in the user’s
pocket, working such as :
• The projector: projects visual
information, enabling surfaces, walls
and physical objects around the
wearer to be used as interfaces;
• The camera and hands: recognizes
and tracks the user's hand gestures
and physical objects using computer-
vision based techniques.
• The software program: processes the
video stream data took by the
camera and tracks the locations of
the colored markers (visual tracking
of colored fingers) at the tip of the
user’s fingers using simple
computer-vision techniques. The
movements and arrangements of
these fiducials are interpreted into
gestures that act as interaction
instructions for the projected
application interfaces.
The maximum number of tracked fingers is
only constrained by the number of unique
fiducials , thus Sixth Sense also supports
multi-touch and multi-user interaction.
The Sixth Sense prototype implements
several applications that demonstrate the
usefulness, viability and flexibility of the
system. The map application lets the user
navigate a map displayed on a nearby
surface using hand gestures, similar to
gestures supported by Multi-Touch based
systems, letting the user zoom in, zoom out
or pan using intuitive hand movements. The
drawing application lets the user draw on
any surface by tracking the fingertip
movements of the user’s index finger.
SixthSense also recognizes user’s freehand
gestures (postures). For example, the
SixthSense system implements a gestural
camera that takes photos of the scene the
user is looking at by detecting the ‘framing’
gesture. The user can stop by any surface or
wall and flick through the photos he/she has
taken. Sixth Sense also lets the user draw
icons or symbols in the air using the
movement of the index finger and
recognizes those symbols as interaction
instructions. For example, drawing a
magnifying glass symbol takes the user to
the map application or drawing an ‘@’
symbol lets the user check his mail. The
Sixth Sense system also augments physical
objects the user is interacting with by
projecting more information about these
objects projected on them. For example, a
newspaper can show live video news or
dynamic information can be provided on a
regular piece of paper. The gesture of
drawing a circle on the user’s wrist projects
an analog watch.
Sense are:
1)RFID Monitor:
It issues a read command every 500 ms to
the RFID reader which then reports the EPC
and the signal
strength of the tags read via each of its
antennas.

Other Enterprise Monitors:

2)Calendar Monitor:
monitors the time and location of the
user’s appointments.
3)Presence Monitor:
monitors the status of each
user’s interaction with their desktop
4)Cameras: The camera feed is stored
in a video database for future analysis,
5)Login Monitor:
general login is a much stronger indication
of a user being present than simply a change
in
their machine’s idle.

Raw database:
The RFID monitor and the other enterprise
monitors push
data into the raw database.

Processed database:
It is populated by the inference

engine with its inferences

Inference engine:
operates on the raw database

using the algorithms to draw inferences.

 to carry as you can wear it in your neck. The
drawing application lets user draw on any
surface by observing the movement of index
finger. Mapping can also be done anywhere
with the features of zooming in or zooming
out. The camera also helps user to take
pictures of the scene he is viewing and later
he can arrange them on any surface. That’s
not it. Some of the more practical uses are
reading a newspaper. Imagine reading a
newspaper and viewing videos instead of the
photos in the paper. Or live sports updates
while reading the newspaper.

THANKYOU

CONCLUSION:

The device has a huge number of

applications. Firstly, it is portable and easily
