ABSTRACT
Is it possible to create a computer, which can interact with us as we interact each other? For example imagine in a fine morning you walk on to your computer room and switch on your computer, and then it tells you “Hey friend, good morning you seem to be a bad mood opens your mail box and shows you some of the mails and tries to cheer you. It seems to be a fiction, but it will be the life lead by “BLUE EYES” in the very near future.Is it possible to create a computer, which can inte

morning you walk on to your computer room and switch on your computer, andthen it tells you “Hey friend, good morning you seem to be a bad moodtoday. And then it opens your mail box and shows you some of the mailsand tries to cheer you. It seems to be a fiction, but it will be the life lead by “BLUE EYES” in the very near future.
The basic idea behind this technology is to give the computer the
human power. We all have some perceptual abilities.understand each other’s feelings. For example we can understand ones emotional state by analyzing his facial expression.If we add these perceptual abilities of human to computers would enable computers to work together with human beings as intimate partners. The “BLUE EYES” technology aims at creating computational machines that have perceptual and sensory ability like those of human beings. BLUE EYES TECHNOLOGY

1. INTRODUCTION
Imagine yourself in a world where humans interact with computers
sitting in front of your personal computer that can listen, talk, or
has the ability 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 presents, and starts interacting with you .You asks the computer to dial to your friend at his office. It realizes the urgency of the situation through the mouse, dials your f riend at hisoffice, and establishes a connection. Human cognition depends primarily on the ability to perceive, interpret, and integrate audio-visuals and sensoring information. Adding extraordinary perceptual abilities to
computers would enable computers to work together with human beings as intimate partners. 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 their feelings. The BLUE EYES technology aims atcreating computational machines that have perceptual and sensory ability like those of human beings. It uses non-obtrusive sensing method, employing most modern video cameras and microphones to identify the user’s actions through the use of imparted sensory abilities. The machine can understand what a user wants, where he is looking at, and even realize his physical or emotional states.
Blue eyes system monitors the status of the operator’s visual attention through measurement of saccadic activity. The system checks parame
ters like heart beat rate and blood oxygenation against abnormal and triggers user defined alarms. BlueEyes system consists of a mobile measuring device and a central analytical system. The mobile device is integrated with Bluetooth module providing wireless interface between sensors worn by the operator and the central unit. ID cards assigned to each of the operators and adequate user profiles on the central unit side
provide necessary data personalization so the system consists of
Mobile measuring device (DAU).
Central System Unit (CSU).
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 Multisensor interface Beeper and LED indicators ,6 AA batteries and voltage level monitorBlue 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 alerts
TYPES OF EMOTION SENSORS:
For Hand: Emotion Mouse Sentic Mouse
For Eyes: Expression Glasses Magic Pointing Eye Tracking
For Voice: Artificial Intelligence Speech Recognition.
HAND :
Emotion Mouse (Fig.6 Emotional Mouse) One proposed, non—invasive method for gaining user information through touch is via a computer input device, the mouse. This then allows the user to relate the cardiac rhythm, the body temperature, electrical conductivity of the skin and other physiological BLUE EYES TECHNOLOGY DIVISON OF COMPUTER ENGINEERING 11 attributes with the mood. This has led to the creation of the “Emotion Mouse”. The device can measure heart rate, temperature, galvanic skin response and minute bodily movements and matches them with six emotional states: happiness, surprise, anger, fear, sadness and disgust. The mouse includes a set of sensors, including infrared detectors and temperature-sensitive chips. These components, User researchers’ stress, will also be crafted into other commonly used items such as the office chair, the steering wheel, the keyboard and the phone handle. Integrating the system into the steering wheel, for instance, could allow an alert to be sounded when a driver becomes drowsy.
FOR EYES:
Expression Glasses :
wearable device which allows any viewer to visualize the confusion and interest levels of the wearer. Other recent developments in related technology are the attempt to learn the needs of the user just by following the interaction between the user and the computer in order to know what he/she is interested in at any given moment. For example, by remembering the type of websites that the user links to according to the mood and time of the day, the computer could search on related sites and suggest the results the user.
CONCLUSION :
The nineties witnessed quantum leaps interface designing for improved man machine interactions. The BLUE EYES technology ensures a convenient way of simplifying the life by providing more delicate and user friendly facilities in computing devices. Now that we have proven the method, the next step is to improve the hardware. Instead of using cumbersome modules to gather information about the user, it will be better to use smaller and less intrusive units. The day is not far when this technology will push its way into your house hold, making you more lazy. It may even reach your hand held mobile device. Any way this is only a technological forecast.
