Sixth Sense Robotics
Ever been fascinated by Robots? Ever been blown away by smart AIs? Ever appreciated the Machines? Ever been blown away by the uber-cool technology of the Terminator, Minority Report or Mr. Tony Stark? If these are a turn on-s for you, then the event "SIXTH SENSE ROBOTICS " is definitely the right place for you.
The name itself doesn’t need much introduction. Sixth Sense Technology is a revolutionary way to aggrandize the physical world around us and lets the user to use natural hand gestures to interact with digital information. It involves almost all sections of modern technology.
The workshop is a secure platform for students to enter into the field of robotics and work on image processing. It helps the students to learn all the basics and apply them in reality.
