2. • BLUE EYES is a technology, which aims at creating co
mputational machines that have perceptual and senso
ry abilities like those of human beings.
• The basic idea behind this technology is to give com
puter human power.
• It provides technical means for monitoring and recor
ding human-operator’s physiological condition.
3. As the idea is to monitor and record operator’s basic physi
ological parameters, the most important physiological acti
vity is the movement of eyes.
For a computer to sense the eye movement, wiring betwee
n operator and the system is required.
But, this is a serious limitation of the operator’s mobility a
nd disables his operations in large control rooms.
So utilization of wireless technology becomes essential w
hich can be implemented through blue tooth technology.
4. Human error- A frequent reason of catastrophes and acci
dents.
Weariness
• Oversight
• Temporal indisposition
An aid to disabled persons.
Availability of capable sensors.
5. The complex solution for human-operator monitoring:
-conscious brain involvement monitoring
-triggering user-defined actions
-data recording
- use of BIOMETRICS
What is Blue Eyes not?
Doesn’t predict nor interfere with operator’s thoughts.
Cannot force directly the operator to work
6. Generic control rooms
-Power station
-Flight control centers
Common application
-A simpler system version for drivers
-An aid to disabled people
7. It has the ability to gather information about you and interact with
you through special techniques like facial recognition, speech reco
gnition, etc.
It can even understand your emotions at the touch of the mouse.
It can verify your identity, feel your presence, and start interacting
with you.
The machine can understand what a user wants, where he is lookin
g at, and even realize his physical or emotional states.
8. It realizes the urgency of the situation through the mou
se.
For instance if you ask the computer to dial to your frie
nd at his office, it understands the situation and establi
shes a connection
9. Visual attention monitoring.
Physiological condition monitoring.
Operators position detection.
Wireless data acquisition using Bluetooth tech
nology.
Real time user defined alarm triggering.
Recorded data play back.
10. Affective Computing
The process of making emotional computers with sensing abilit
ies is known as affective computing.
The steps used are:
1)Giving sensing abilities
- to give machines the equivalent of the eyes, ears, and othe
r sensory organs
- voice-recognition software
- cameras
2)Detecting human emotions
-by biometric techniques
3)Respond properly
11. •Affect detection:
detecting our emotional states from the expressions on our
face
•MAGIC pointing:
Manual Acquisition with Gaze Tracking Technology
•SUITOR:
Simple User Interface Tracker
•Emotion mouse:
expected accuracy is 75%
14. Eye position measuring - direct infrared occulography
Oxy- and deoxyhaemoglobin measurement
Two axial accelerometer
Ambient light sensor
Jazz Multisensor
15. Bluetooth technology provides means for creatin
g a Personal Area Network linking the operators
and the central system.

23. Operator is a person whose physiological parameters
are supervised
The operator wears the DAU
The only functions offers to the operator are Authoriz
ation to the system and receiving alarm alerts.
Authorization: Operator has to enter his personal PIN
into DAU, if PIN is accepted, authorization is said to
be complete.
Receiving Alerts: This function supplies the operator
with the most important alerts about his and his co-w
orkers’ condition and mobile device state.
24. He is the person responsible for analyzing operators’
condition and performance.
The supervisor receives tools for inspecting present v
alues of the parameters (on-line browsing) as well as
browsing the results of the long-term analysis (off-lin
e browsing).
25. He is the user that maintains the system
The administrator is delivered tools for adding new o
perators to the database. Defining alarm conditions.
Configuring logging tools.
Creating new analyzer modules.
26. POD
The first blue Eye enabled mass production device
It’s a car manufactured by TOYOTA
It could keep the driver alert and active
It could tell the driver to go slow if he is driving to
o fast
It could hear the driver some sort of interesting mu
sic when he is getting bored.
27. PONG
It’s a robot released by IBM designed for demons
trating the new technology
Its equipped with a computer capable of analyzing
a person's glances and other forms of expressions
of feelings
It smiles when the person calls his name
It expresses loneliness when it loses sight of the pe
rson
28. SECURE PAD
an electronic badge that can identify the wearer and
track his movements and activities with an array of s
ensors
It knows who you are and where you are, and it has a
pretty good idea of what you are doing and when yo
u are doing it.
The device was designed for a major health-care pro
vider to track the activities of doctors and other perso
nnel at large medical facilities
it's interchangeable
29. enables the computer to adapt a working style that fit
s users personality to increase his productivity
The technology can also be incorporated into automo
biles
Blue Eyes is going to find its way in the routines of h
uman beings with application such as TV, washing m
achine etc.
In a company, the supervisor can be given the power t
o access the database containing his employees profil
e, which is linked with Blue Eyes technology. hereby
he can evaluate the performance of his employees.
30. The wireless link between the sensors worn by the ope
rator and the supervising system makes it possible to i
mprove overall reliability, safety and assures proper q
uality of system performance.
These new possibilities can cover areas such as industr
y, transportation, military command centers or operatio
n theaters.
Researchers are attempting to add more capabilities to
computers that will allow them to interact like humans
, recognize human presents, talk, listen, or even guess t
heir feelings.
It avoids potential threats resulting from human errors,
such as weariness, oversight, tiredness.
