you to access the internet, cruise<br />

HOW IT WORKS<br />

The technology in itself is nothing<br />

more than the combination of s ome<br />

stunning technologies, but the idea<br />

of combining those technologie s is<br />

really great. The technology is mainly<br />

based on hand gesture recognit ion,<br />

image capturing, processing, and manipulation,<br />

etc. The camera is used<br />

to recognize and track user’s hand<br />

gestures and physical objects using<br />

computer-vision based techniqu es,<br />

while the projector is used to project<br />

visual information on walls or on any<br />

physical thing around us. Other hardware<br />

includes mirror and colored caps<br />

to be used for fingers<br />

The software of the technology<br />

uses stream, which is captured by the<br />

camera, and also tracks the location<br />

This device, which can only be<br />

found in Think Geek, is a kind of mobile<br />

phone charger that can power up<br />

your phones via induction. It also<br />

works easy enough. You only have to<br />

slide your phone into the included receiver<br />

case and watch as your phones<br />

get juiced up. Once your phone is completely<br />

charged, this Air Volt Wireless<br />

Phone Charger will automatically turn<br />

off.<br />

Here are the features of this<br />

AirVolt Wireless Phone Charger:<br />

* Compatible with I Phone 3G/3G.<br />

be so proud of us.<br />

* Dimensions: 5.5 x 4.5<br />

SIXTH SENSE VS<br />

MICROSOFT DIGITAL<br />

SURFACE<br />

The other recent development<br />

which introduced the multi-tou ch<br />

functionality and gesture inte rpretation<br />

technology is the Microsoft Surface<br />

from the computer technol ogy<br />

giants, the Microsoft Corporation. But<br />

Pranav Mistry’s invention wins hands<br />

down with respect to the Micro soft<br />

Surface because of its down to earth<br />

price, portability, and mass popularity.<br />

Pranav Mistry and his mentor P attie<br />

Maes got rave reviews for their presentations<br />

in the Ted conferences held<br />

at India and USA respectively. Moreover<br />

the Microsoft Surface is aimed at<br />

the commercial market with only a few<br />

ready to experiment with it considering<br />

the huge investment involved.<br />
