Hi Guys,

I am sure you are all aware that Pranav Mistry and Indian working as research assistant at MIT Design Labs has created a SixthSense technology which is creating raves around the world! The technology was created using a simple mouse and paper. His inspiration comes from he being Indian to make cost efficient, economic devices for masses. The device presently costs just US $350 which normally would cost $5000 otherwise.

He will be making in an OpenSource next month so that anyone can create their own device and bridge the gap between REAL life and VIRTUAL life. The video appears pretty much as a story of Vedic period where people used do everything using their ultra mental abilities to control the surrounding environment.

Do check this video of Pranav presenting at one of the TED event recently held and for the first time in India. http://www.ted.com/talks/pattie_maes_demos_the_sixth_sense.html

Also, have a look at www.techpedia.in where many grass-root level innovations are captured that are poised to change the future of India!

If you are aware of people who are advancing and creating some cool technologies, products, business ideas or just anything, we sincerely urge to bring it to our notice by sending the contact details and a brief description of the person or the team involved.

It is a new wave of innovation in India and it is worth nothing if masses don’t benefit from it.

Thanks and best regards.
