Mangalore, June 21: Engineering students of the Srinivas College have invented a 'Sixth Sense Gesture Recognition System' (6S- GRS), a medium of interaction between real world and digital world.

The system is programmed in such a way that gestures made in front of the system is orally reproduced through system with which speech impaired people can easily interact with others informed Dr. Srinivs Mayya D, Principal, Srinivas Institute of Technology, here at press meet on Tuesday.

The model consists of a camera which captures the gestures and sends it in digital form to the computer where the code written in MATLAB is saved. Every gesture made by the hand has a pattern and a position which is unique. The captured image gets interpreted based on these features and the audio file corresponding to that particular gesture is triggered which is stored in the database, the team said.

Another application can be used as a gesture interpreter when a person visits a foreign country, person can still communicate with them normally by using a more enhanced version of this device.

The system has been invented by students of Electronics and Communication Engineering, B Ishaq, Arth Kumar D Rao, Anson Stephen and Faheem Adil under the guidance of Kumar K, Assistant Professor, Lokesh B, Associate Professor, Bheema Shastry, HOD, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering.

Auto Driving System Using 3G and MEMS:

A car which can be controlled through mobile without a driver was introduced in the press meet. The owner can keep track on his car through 3G facility. The owner can also listen to the noise and disturbance around the car through MEMS microphone. It can also be used for military purpose to keep a track on enemies with better efficiency and one can track and trace their voice through MEMS. The technologies used in this project are MEMS and 3G.

Students who designed the project are Barun Sharma, Patel Hemalkumar, Shaikh Mohammed Shoaib under the guidance of Dr. K R Kamath, Professor and Dean, Sathish Kumar K, Assistant Professor and Mr. Lokesh B, Associate Professor and Professor Bheema Shastry, HOD, Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering.

New Delhi, Apr 27: Indian prime minister Narendra Modi has said the monthlong ongoing lockdown has yielded positive results and that the country has managed to save “thousands of lives”.

Modi, who had a videoconference with various heads of the states on Monday, said the impact of the coronavirus, however, will remain visible in the coming months, according to a press statement released by his office. On the issue of getting back Indians who are overseas, the Prime Minister said that this has to be done keeping in mind the fact that they don’t get inconvenienced and their families are not under any risk.

During the meeting with state heads, Modi advocated for social distancing of at least 6 feet and the use of face masks as a rapid response to tackle COVID-19.

He said that states should put their efforts of converting hotspots, or red zones, into “orange and thereafter green zones”.

India last week eased the lockdown by allowing shops to reopen and manufacturing and farming activities to resume in rural areas to help millions of poor, daily-wage earners. But the economic costs of the nationwide lockdown continue to mount in a country of 1.3 billion people.

Modi, who put India under a strict lockdown on March 25, did not say if the lockdown restrictions will extend after May 3.

India has confirmed over 27,000 cases of the coronavirus, including 872 deaths.
