Blue eye technology uses sensors and perceptual abilities to enable computers to identify and interact with users in a more natural way. It can recognize facial expressions, speech, and eye movements to gather information about a user's emotions, identity and intentions. The goal is to create more user-friendly systems that can adapt to a user's needs and moods. The technology has applications in monitoring operators' attention and alertness in environments like power plant control rooms. It uses hardware like microcontrollers and Bluetooth modules along with software for real-time data analysis and visualization.
Blue Eyes technology aims at creating computational Machines with perceptual and sensory abilities like those of human beigns. Blue Eyes system is thus a versatile system which can be modified to cater to the working environment. The Blue Eyes system has hardware with software loaded on it Blue Eyes systemcan be applied in every working environment requiring permanent operator''s attention for it. The hardware comprises of data acquisition unit and central system unit. The heart of Data acquisition unit is ATMEL 89C52 microcontroller Bluetooth technology is used for communication and coordination between the two units.Blue eye system can be applied in every working environment which requires pemanent operator''s attention. Blue eyes sytem provides technical means for monitoring and recording human operator''s physiological condition. A blue eyes is a project aiming to be a means of stress reliever driven by the advanced, technology of syudying the facial expressions for judgment of intensity of stress handled. In totality blue eyes aims at adding perceptual abilities which would end up in a healthy stress free environment and can be applied in every working environment requiring permanent operator''s attention.
Blue Eyes is a technology conducted by the research team of IBM at its Almaden Research Center (ARC) in San Jose, California since 1997. Blue eyes technology makes a computer to understand and sense human feelings and behavior and also enables the computer to react according to the sensed emotional levels. The aim of the blue eyes technology is to give human power or abilities to a computer, so that the machine can naturally interact with human beings as we interact with each other. All human beings have some perceptual capabilities, the ability to understand each other’s emotional level or feelings from their facial expressions. Blue eyes technology aims at creating a computer that have the abilities to understand the perceptual powers of human being by recognizing their facial expressions and react accordingly to them.
Imagine, a beautiful world, where humans collaborate with computers!! .The computer can talk, listen or screech aloud!! .With the help of speech recognition and facial recognition systems, computers gathers information from the users and starts interacting with them according to their mood variations. Computer recognizes your emotional levels by a simple touch on the mouse and it can interact with us as an intimate partner. The machine feels your presence; verifies your identity and starts interacting with you and even it will dial and call to your home at any urgent situations. This all is happening with this “Blue Eyes” technology.

Artificial Intelligence Robotics (AI) PPT by Aamir Saleem AnsariTech
Artificial intelligence (AI) is the intelligence exhibited by machines. In computer science, an ideal "intelligent" machine is a flexible rational agent that perceives its environment and takes actions that maximize its chance of success at an arbitrary goal.Colloquially, the term "artificial intelligence" is likely to be applied when a machine uses cutting-edge techniques to competently perform or mimic "cognitive" functions that we intuitively associate with human minds, such as "learning" and "problem solving".The colloquial connotation, especially among the public, associates artificial intelligence with machines that are "cutting-edge" (or even "mysterious"). This subjective borderline around what constitutes "artificial intelligence" tends to shrink over time; for example, optical character recognition is no longer perceived as an exemplar of "artificial intelligence" as it is nowadays a mundane routine technology.Modern examples of AI include computers that can beat professional players at Chess and Go, and self-driving cars that navigate crowded city streets.
AI research is highly technical and specialized, and is deeply divided into subfields that often fail to communicate with each other. Some of the division is due to social and cultural factors: subfields have grown up around particular institutions and the work of individual researchers. AI research is also divided by several technical issues. Some subfields focus on the solution of specific problems. Others focus on one of several possible approaches or on the use of a particular tool or towards the accomplishment of particular applications.
Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence exhibited by machines. In computer science, the field of AI research defines itself as the study of "intelligent agents".
Robotics is the interdisciplinary branch of engineering and science that includes mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, computer science, and others. Robotics deals with the design, construction, operation, and use of robots,[1] as well as computer systems for their control, sensory feedback, and information processing.
This Presentation will give you an overview about Artificial Intelligence : definition, advantages , disadvantages , benefits , applications .
We hope it to be useful .
In the past few decades, wearable sensors and devices have evolved into central technologies that have significantly impacted next-generation healthcare solutions in the previous decade. It is an age of incredibly cut-throat competition, even the youth. This technology is Hand-free, eyephone-operated telephone technology. It measures where the user’s eyes are located on the phone’s display employing a camera attached to the device. The typical work the eye bones assigned to eye tracking, eye blinking, detecting, etc., by way of eye-tracking, users can take care of their email, calendar, phone, etc.Advanced phone cameras and machine learning algorithms have now paved the way for a new form of eye-tracking: smartphone technology

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Blue eyes paper
1. 1
TECHNOLOGY
INTRODUCTION
A study has shown that people with personalities that are similar collaborate well.
Dryer(1999) has also shown that people view their computer as having a personality. For these
reasons, it is important to develop computers which can work well with its user. This is where
the blue eye technology comes into force. With the abilities to gather information about you and
interact with you through special techniques like facial recognition, speech recognition etc., it
can even understand your emotions at the touch of the mouse. It verifies your identity, feels your
presence and starts interacting with you. So the ultimate aim of BLUE EYES TECHNOLOGY is
to create a user friendly system that can increase the productivity of the user by adapting itself to
the user’s mood. So this concept of BLUE EYE TECHNOLOGY IS SURELY A BOON. After
all who would not want to own a computer that?
1. Can easily adapt to your mood
2. Perform tasks the moment you “actually tell” it what you want
3. Help you by gathering more additional information
This paper is about the hardware, software, benefits and interconnection of various parts
involved in the “blue eye” technology.
Likewise, human cognition depends on highly developed abilities to perceive, integrate,
and interpret visual, auditory, and touch information. Without a doubt, computers would be
much more powerful if they had even a small fraction of the perceptual ability of animals or
humans. Adding such perceptual abilities to computers would enable computers and humans to
work together more as partners. Blue Eyes uses sensing technology to identify a user's actions
and to extract key information. For example, in future a Blue Eyes-enabled television could
become active when the user makes eye contact, at which point the user could then tell the
television to "turn on". This paper is about the hardware, software, benefits and interconnection
of various parts involved in the “blue eye” technology.
2. 2
Toward this end, the Blue Eyes aims at creating computational devices with the sort of
perceptual abilities that people take for granted Blue eyes is being developed by the team of
Poznan University of Technology& Microsoft. It makes use of the “blue tooth technology
developed by Ericsson.
PARTS OF A BLUE EYE SYSTEM:
The major parts in the Blue eye system are Data Acquisition Unit and Central System
Unit.
The tasks of the mobile Data Acquisition Unit are to maintain Bluetooth
connections, to get information from the sensor and sending it over the wireless connection, to
deliver the alarm messages sent from the Central System Unit to the operator and handle
personalized ID cards. Central System Unit maintains the other side of the Bluetooth connection,
buffers incoming sensor data, performs on-line data analysis, records the conclusions for further
exploration and provides visualization interface.
OVERVIEW:
3. 3
HARDWARE:
Data Acquisition Unit:
Data Acquisition Unit is a mobile part of the Blue eyes system. Its main task is to fetch
the physiological data from the sensor and to send it to the central system to be processed. To
accomplish the task the device must manage wireless Bluetooth connections (connection
establishment, authentication and termination). Personal ID cards and PIN codes provide
operator's authorization. Communication with the operator is carried on using a simple 5-key
keyboard, a small LCD display and a beeper. When an exceptional situation is detected the
device uses them to notify the operator. Voice data is transferred using a small headset,
interfaced to the DAU with standard mini-jack plugs.
The Data Acquisition Unit comprises several hardware modules
Atmel 89C52 microcontroller - system core
Bluetooth module (based on ROK101008)
HD44780 - small LCD display
24C16 - I2C EEPROM (on a removable ID card)
MC145483 – 13bit PCM codec
Jazz Multisensory interface
beeper and LED indicators ,6 AA batteries and voltage level monitor
CENTRAL SYSTEM UNIT:
Central System Unit hardware is the second peer of the wireless connection. The box
contains a Bluetooth module (based on ROK101008) and a PCM codec for voice data
transmission. The module is interfaced to a PC using a parallel, serial and USB cable. The audio
data is accessible through standard mini-jack sockets
To program operator's personal ID cards we developed a simple programming device.
The programmer is interfaced to a PC using serial and PS/2 (power source) ports. Inside, there is
4. 4
Atmel 89C2051 microcontroller, which handles UART transmission and I2C EEPROM (ID
card) programming.
SOFTWARE:
Blue Eyes software's main task is to look after working operators' physiological
condition. To assure instant reaction on the operators' condition change the software performs
real time buffering of the incoming data, real-time physiological data analysis and alarm
triggering.
The Blue Eyes software comprises several functional modules
System core facilitates the transfers flow between other system modules (e.g. transfers
raw data from the Connection Manager to data analyzers, processed data from the data analyzers
to GUI controls, other data analyzers, data logger etc.). The System Core fundamental are
single-producer-multi-consumer thread safe queues. Any number of consumers can register to
receive the data supplied by a producer. Every single consumer can register at any number of
producers, receiving therefore different types of data. Naturally, every consumer may be a
producer for other consumers. This approach enables high system scalability – new data
processing modules (i.e. filters, data analyzers and loggers) can be easily added by simply
registering as a costumer.
Connection Manager is responsible for managing the wireless communication between
the mobile Data Acquisition Units and the central system. The Connection Manager handles:
communication with the CSU hardware
searching for new devices in the covered range
establishing Bluetooth connections
connection authentication
incoming data buffering
sending alerts
5. 5
Data Analysis module performs the analysis of the raw sensor data in order to obtain
information about the operator’s physiological condition. The separately running Data Analysis
module supervises each of the working operators.
The module consists of a number of smaller analyzers extracting different types of
information. Each of the analyzers registers at the appropriate Operator Manager or another
analyzer as a data consumer and, acting as a producer, provides the results of the analysis. The
most important analyzers are:
saccade detector - monitors eye movements in order to determine the level of operator's
visual attention
pulse rate analyzer - uses blood oxygenation signal to compute operator's pulse rate
Custom analyzers - recognize other behaviors than those which are built-in the system. The
new modules are created using C4.5 decision tree induction algorithm
Visualization module provides a user interface for the supervisors. It enables them to
watch each of the working operator’s physiological condition along with a preview of selected
video source and related sound stream. All the incoming alarm messages are instantly signaled to
the supervisor. The Visualization module can be set in an off-line mode, where all the data is
fetched from the database. Watching all the recorded physiological parameters, alarms, video
and audio data the supervisor is able to reconstruct the course of the selected operator’s duty.
The physiological data is presented using a set of custom-built GUI controls:
a pie-chart used to present a percentage of time the operator was actively acquiring the
visual information
A VU-meter showing the present value of a parameter time series displaying a history of
selected parameters' value

other with the use of blue eye technology. It seems to be a fiction, but it will be the life lead by
“BLUE EYES” in the very near future. Ordinary household devices -- such as televisions,
refrigerators, and ovens -- may be able to do their jobs when we look at them and speak to them.
