Sparsh (software)

'SPARSH' is an interaction method to transfer data between digital devices by touch gestures.[1][2] The Sparsh prototype system is designed and developed by Pranav Mistry, Suranga Nanayakkara of the MIT Media Lab. [3][4] Sparsh uses touch-based interactions[5] when transfering data, such as photos, text, video, or links, from one device to the other and the data transfer is handled via the cloud.

The user authentication is achieved by face recognition, fingerprint detection, or username-password combination. At present, Sparsh system supports Android and Windows platforms.
