Posted on March 12, 2009 by Gandalfe

Pattie Maes & Pranav Mistry unveil the “Sixth Sense” game-chaging wearable tech gear. This video was taken at TED at MIT.

This shows how possible a toolset, much like what was hinted at in the movie “The Minority Report”, will be for everyone ten years from now. At one point in the presentation the speaker talks about being able to access a Word Cloud about the person you are interacting with. Well, I provided that in my blog post here.

How’d you like your word cloud to be accessible by others? I found this tech talk to be fascinating. Enjoy.
