This is awesome. It costs only $350 even in the lab made with off the shelf components. Your hand, wall, any surface is a screen. It’s a digital prototype called “sixth sense” that is currently being evaluated by major companies like Microsoft, Google, Hewlett-Packard and Samsung. The brain behind this device is the 28-year-old Indian-born Pranav Mistry, a researcher at the Media Lab, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
The “Sixth Sense” device (patented by MIT) comprises a pocket projector, mirror and web camera bundled in a wearable pendant-like mobile. The projector can turn anything into a touch screen. The web cam (and color-coded finger-gloves worn on the index finger and thumb) can recognize the movements of a user's hands, which enables gesture-commands.
Watch this youtube video below. Believe me, this is jaw dropping and worth watching:
