Empowering the Education Sector with Sixth Sense

This paper is intended to enlighten the reader about the Sixth Sense technology that is emerging rapidly in the field of technological interaction, emphasizing upon the use of this technology in the Education System. Sixth Sense can be thought of as a wearable gesture interface that augments the real world around, applying concepts of Artificial Intelligence which is the study of human intelligence such that it can be replicated artificially, enabling the creation of intelligent machines that work and react like humans. It signifies human-computer interaction and can have varied applications, and we intend to elaborate upon the uses and applications of this technology in a learning environment in this paper. To understand the applications of Sixth Sense technology, we must first understand the implementation of it, and therefore, we have also explained a prototype of the technology that has been developed. Merging these applications with a practical approach, namely, the Education System, we have shown how the Sixth Sense technology can be used effectively in a campus.
