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.
