Sixth Sense is Developed

Scientists of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have created a probable ‘sixth sense’ devise powered by commercial products that can seamlessly channel internet information into daily routines. The device can turn any surface into a touch screen for computing, controlled by simple hand gestures.

The gadget can even take photographs if a user frames a scene with his or her hands or project a watch face with the proper time on a wrist if the user makes a circle there with a finger cobbled a web camera, a battery-powered projector and a mobile into a gizma that can be worn like jewellery. Signals from the camera and projector are relayed to smart phones with internet connections.

“Other than letting some of you live out your fantasy, it can really let you connect as a sixth sense devise with whatever is in front of you”, said team leader Professor Patty Maes. The research team unveiled the futuristic gadget made from store bought components. The device can recognize items in store-shelves, retrieving and projecting information about products or even providing quick signals to let users know which choices suit their tastes.

The gadget can look at an Aeroplane ticket and let the user know whether the flight is on time, or recognize books in book store and then project reviews or author information from the internet onto lank pages.
