Sixth sense is one of the best tech concepts I have seen this year. Sixth sense is being researched and developed at MIT, spearheaded by Pranav Mistry, this gadget is a quick preview of the technology we will carry around with us in the future.

Sixth Sense brings the real time intractivity to our daily lives. The wearable gadget is loaded with Camera, Projector, Mirror and colored caps on the fingers which send visual commands to the device through the camera.

The camera is constantly capturing the objects in front of the person wearing it and processes the information based on what it sees and shows more information using the projector.

Imagine meeting someone for the first time at a conference and Sixth sense searches the internet and shows you all the information about that person or just pick up a book at the library and the gadget immediately pulls the ratings and reviews from Amazon and shows it right there.

These are just few of the things Sixth Sense can do, watch the video below to see an array of interesting things this technology is capable of.

If you can ever call Technology an art then this has to be it. Sixth Sense in its current state is something that you wouldn’t want to carry around but this is certainly not what it will look like when its commercially available.

I am sure the Technology giants of today have noticed the gadget and might already have something on the same lines. So lets wait and watch!
