Abstract

I magine you wake up one day, turn on your pc and it says hello friend what’s up!! That means you are sitting in opposite

of your personal computer that can listen, talk, or even yell aloud. It has the ability to collect information about you and

interact with you through special skills like facial recognition, language recognition, etc. It can even recognize your

emotions at the tad of the mouse. It authenticates your identity, feels your offerings, and begins interacting with you. You

ask the PC to dial to your friend at his workplace. It realizes the urgency of the state through the mouse, dials your friend

at his office, and launches a connection. The BLUE EYES technology objects at creating computational machines that

have perceptual and sensory capability like those of human beings. It uses sensing method, video cameras and

microphones to identify the user’s activities by using some intellectual abilities

Keywords: Blue Eyes, Data Acquisition Unit, Central System Unit, Sensors and Bluetooth.

I. I NTRODUCTION

The term “Blue Eyes” is a mixture of Blue and Eye.Blue stands for Bluetooth, for dependable wirelesscommunication and the Eyes for the eye movement, which

permits to obtain fascinating and important information.

Blue Eyes system offers technical means for observingand recording human-operator's physiological situation.The key characteristics of the system are:

Visual attention observing (eye motility examination)

Functional condition checking (pulse level, bloodoxygenation)

User's location acknowledgement (standing, lying)

Wireless data attainment using Bluetooth technology

Physiological data, operator's speech and overall view

of the control room recording.

Saved data rerun.

Real-time user-defined alarm prompting.

II. METHODOLOGIES

This technology of “BLUE EYES” delivers a practicalmeans for detecting and recording the operator’selementary physiological parameters. The most significant

parameter is saccadic activity1 (Saccades are immediateeye jumps to new locations inside a visual environmentallocated predominantly by the Sensible attention process.),which empowers the system to monitor the status of theoperator’s optical attention along with head spurt, whichcomplements large displacement of the visual alignment(saccades greater than 15 degrees).

Quite often in a crisis situation operators speak tothemselves conveying their surprise or stating orally the

problem. Therefore, the operator’s vocal sound,

physiological constraints and an overall interpretation ofthe operating room are recorded. This helps to restructurethe course of operators’ work and provides data for long-standing analysis.

Description of above Diagram- Mobile DataAcquisition Unit sustain Bluetooth networks, acquiresinformation from the sensor and sends it above the wireless

connection, to provide the alarm messages propagatedthrough the Central System Unit to the operator and handlemade to order ID cards. Central System Unit conserves theother side of the Bluetooth connection, cushions incomingsensor data, accomplishes online data examination, recordsthe assumptions for additional investigation and providesenvisioning interface. The priority of the central unit is todeliver real-time buffering of entering sensor signals andsemi-real-time dispensation of the data, which necessitatesspeed optimized filtering and intellectual algorithms.

A. Data Acquisition Unit

(1) Physiological Data Sensor

An off-shelf eye movement measuring device-JAZZmulti-sensor was used as functional data sensor. Itdeliveries underdone digital data concerning eye position,

the level of body fluid oxygenation, acceleration along perpendicular and straight axes and ambient lightconcentration.

(2) Hardware specification of DAU

The 8051 design provides many gatherings (CPU,

RAM, ROM, I/O, interrupt logic, timer, UART, etc.) inalone package.

Bluetooth component used in this scheme supportssynchronous speech data transmission (SCO link).Communication amongst the microcontroller componentand the bluetooth is carried on using typical UART(Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter) interface.

B. Central System Unit (CSU)

There are four main CSU components (see fig: systemoverview): Data Analysis, Connection Manager, DataLogger and Visualization.

(1)

Connection ManagerConnection Manager’s main task is to achieve low-

level Bluetooth communication by using Host ControllerInterface instructions.

(2) Data Analysis Module

The module performs the study of the raw sensor datain directive to obtain information around the operator’s

physiological circumstance. The separately running DataAnalysis Module monitors each of the working operators.

(3) Visualization Module

The module arrange for user interface for the

administrators. It assists them to lookout each of theemployed operator’s physiological situation along with a broadcast of selected video source and his related soundtorrent. All the incoming alarm messages are immediatelynotifies to the controller. The visualization module can beset in the off-line style, where all the data is drawn from thedatabase. Inspecting all the logged physiologicalconstraints, alarms, video and auditory data the supervisoris able to reconstruct the course of the nominatedoperator’s duty.

(4) Data Logger Module

The module provides backing for storing the superviseddata in order to empower the administrator to rebuild and

investigate the operator’s duty. customer of the data isstored in the database.

III. WHY BLUE EYES?

Human error is still one of the most recurrent causes ofall artificial disasters. Today human involvement to the onthe whole performance of the system is left unverified.Since the system is made to act upon automatically, anoperator becomes a flaccid observer of the supervisedsystem, which causes plunge to wakefulness. It therefore isimperative to assure that the operator’s cognizant brain isinvolved in a dynamic system which will supervise overthe complete work time period. It is possible to measure

indirectly the stage of the operator’s conscious braininvolvement using eye movement examination. In largecontrol rooms, cabling the operator to the fundamentalstructure is a severe drawback of his mobility and disables

his operation. The wireless connection between the sensorsworn by the operator and the supervising structure offersnew way to system overall dependability and safety.

IV. DISADVANTAGES

The drawback of this system includes parameters linked

to cost and reliability. Cost because it is a complex systemhaving many sensors and hardware devices which increasesits cost. Reliability because it is dependent on high order

brain function of humans, which can sometimes make itunreliable.

The new potential can cover such areas as commerce,transportation (by air, by road and by sea), martialcommand centers or operating theaters (anesthesiologists).It is proposed that the system in its commercial dischargewill help avoid possible threats resulting from humanerrors, such as fatigue, oversight, tiredness.

V. APPLICATIONS

Engineers at IBM's workplace :smart tags" ResearchCenter in San Jose, CA, account that a number of largesellers have instigated surveillance systems that record andunderstand customer movements, using software fromAlmaden's Blue Eyes research project [2]. Blue Eyes isevolving ways for computers to forestall users' wants bygathering video data on eye movement and facialcountenance. Your gaze might rest on a Web site headline,for example, and that would prompt your computer totreasure similar links and to demand them up in a newwindow. But the first concrete use for the research turnsout to be interfering on shoppers. Blue Eyes softwaremakes sagacity of what the cameras see to answer key

inquiries for retailers, including, how many shoppersoverlooked a promotion? How many stopped? How longdid they halt? Did their faces register tedium or delight?How many reached for the article and put it in theirshopping carts? Blue Eyes works by stalking pupil,eyebrow and mouth movement. When nursing pupils, thesystem uses a camera and two infrared light foundations

placed inside the product display. One light cause isaligned with the camera's focus; the other is somewhat offaxis. When the eye gazes into the camera-aligned light, the

pupil seems bright to the sensor, and the software recordsthe customer's attention. This is way it apprehensions the

person's income and buying predilections. Blue Eyes isactively been combined in some of the prominent retail

outlets. Other Application could be:

(a) Flight control centers

(b) Power station

(c) Operating theatres – anesthesiologists

(d) A simpler system version for drivers

(e) In automobile industry

(f) In video games

VI. CONCLUSION

Human has great expectations from human being’s

future and present. This tends to scrutinize new and helpfultechnologies which can make the living more comfortable.This technology is one of them that can make so. Non-
