Sixth Sense Technology

Who? The man who created this video and the concept of sixth sense is named Pranav Mistry.
What? This invention mentions how to surf the web objects such as a simple piece of paper. The sixth sense technology can basically enable you to use physical objects to surf the web.
When? This video was posted in November 2009.
Where? This video was created and posted in India.
Why? He created this video for the betterment of advancing our technology. This video was made to describe how  we could advance our knowledge of technology and how it could help people that don't have all five senses. How?  The sixth sense technology basically other forms of technology joined together. It shows us that objects that we use normally can interact with the digital world. Pranav clipped something on a piece of paper and it enabled him to do anything on the paper. He even Google searched things!

This has a connection to IT, because it is something that involves the digital world and technology. Sixth sense is something that enables us to go further in the advancement of technology. therefore it has something to do about computers and technology. IT is all about that kind of stuff.
Us, IT students look up to Pranav Mistry and what he created. By watching this video we can get inspiration. It informs us on the advancement technology. Hence the name information technology. 
I found using paper as an iPad particularly interesting. iPad's cost so much money but paper doesn't really cost much. I also found that taking a photo by using your hands really cool. I would probably have to go through the hassle of taking my camera out and making sure it had enough battery and my hands were straight. This idea seemed particularly interesting to me.
