What maters to the world today is the Sixth Sense project at MIT. The project is developing a cell phone based system that can be used as a resource for research and much, no matter what the location. As seen in the video, the man can be told which paper towel is most compatible to his life style, or he can dial his phone on his hands, and even draw a watch to know what time it is. This is truly amazing because the camera and projector work together to recognize the environment and instantly give information on what is going on. This matters to the world because it will make our lives much easier. The program helps us with everyday situations and guides us towards what is best. I personally like the program because it has the ability to show information on people you meet. This leads to people getting to know each other faster and starting an opinion of that person. This could also be helpful with security. At airports, guards could identify people who are terrorists or people who intend to cause trouble quicker and easier. This technology could change the world.
