Pranav Mistry , Sixth Sense technology and differently abled people

I have been hearing abt Pranav Mistry's ground breaking Sixth Sense technology for a long time, but never saw his presentation on TED.

What Pranav is trying to commercialise is a wearable device with a camera, which converts any surface into a computing device, intelligent enough to understand whatever it sees and provide info on the same.. Its a bridge between Physical and virtual world..

Absolutely mind blowing presentation from Pranav.. But one thing stole my heart, which could be the most useful thing humans have ever built.

Answering the questions pranav says, NGOs in India have full faith tht this technology could assist differently abled people and they have asked Pranav to check the feasibility... Imagine people without vision, getting all the details in front of them as an audible.. Hearing impaired people can see whatever the person talks in front of him... People who are deprived of their speech could communicate easily with people ... they can lead a life which will be closer to normal..

Hope Pranav could help those millions of differently abled people in their life... As he says Imagination is the only limit....

good luck pranav on ur endeavour.. urs is an innovation tht will truly be remembered forever...
