Sixthsense - The Wearable Computer

Imagine being able to take a digital photograph by making the shape of a picture frame in the air with your hands, or dialling a phone number by simply tapping your palm with a finger. Or even navigating your way around a city by projecting a map onto the nearest wall, then using it as a touch screen to find a convenient subway station or bus stop. This is the promise of SixthSense, a prototype wearable device invented by MIT engineer Pranav Mistry.
