Expanding the sixth sense

In an earlier posting, I had mentioned the brilliance of a young Indian- Pranav Mistry- who while at MIT produced one of the most original innovation that one has seen in a long time.

Here Pranav is speaking at the TED conference in India and expands on what he intends to do with his amazing innovation of merging the physical with the digital world. He intends to publish his software to be open source and points out that the hardware is readily available at a cost of about $ 300.
