A colleague recently linked me to this TED talk from an Indian computer scientist named Pranav Mistry who has created SixthSense, a new platform that brings mobile computing into real life.

His device consists of a camera, projector, and coloured finger tips that allow the attached computer to locate his fingers in 3D space. On top of this $350 hardware platform lies a bunch of really cool software that is capable of some really neat tricks. This presentation put my jaw on the floor. Check it out.
