Sixth Sense – an invention by Pranav Mistry @ TED

TED stands for Technology, Entertainment & Design (think of it like a group of guys with great innovative brains coming together to demo their inventions).

If you have seen Mission Impossible and Minority Report then you will easily relate this gadget to those.

If you thought iPhone was so cool, just wait to see this video.

Pranav is a PhD student in MIT, Mass.

Let this gadget come to market i will be waiting in queue to buy it :)

I was amazed by the list of practical, day-to-day scenarios explained in this video, the video starts slowly and please wait to see the entire one and then you will realize how cool this invention is.
