Abstract
Imagine you wake up one day, turn on your pc and it says hello friend whats 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 users activities by using some intellectual abilities
Keywords: Blue Eyes, Data Acquisition Unit, Central System Unit, Sensors and Bluetooth.

INTRODUCTION
The term Blue Eyes is a mixture of Blue and Eye.

Blue stands for Bluetooth, for dependable wireless
communication and the Eyes for the eye movement, which
permits to obtain fascinating and important information.
physiological constraints and an overall interpretation of

the operating room are recorded. This helps to restructure
the course of operators work and provides data for longstanding analysis.
Blue Eyes system offers technical means for observing

and recording human-operator's physiological situation.
The key characteristics of the system are:
Visual attention observing (eye motility examination)
Functional condition checking (pulse level, blood
oxygenation)
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.

METHODOLOGIES
This technology of BLUE EYES delivers a practical

means for detecting and recording the operators
elementary physiological parameters. The most significant
parameter is saccadic activity1 (Saccades are immediate
eye jumps to new locations inside a visual environment
allocated predominantly by the Sensible attention process.),
which empowers the system to monitor the status of the
operators optical attention along with head spurt, which
complements large displacement of the visual alignment
(saccades greater than 15 degrees).
Quite often in a crisis situation operators speak to
themselves conveying their surprise or stating orally the
problem. Therefore, the operators vocal sound,

Acquisition Unit sustain Bluetooth networks, acquires
information from the sensor and sends it above the wireless
connection, to provide the alarm messages propagated
through the Central System Unit to the operator and handle
made to order ID cards. Central System Unit conserves the
other side of the Bluetooth connection, cushions incoming
sensor data, accomplishes online data examination, records
the assumptions for additional investigation and provides
envisioning interface. The priority of the central unit is to
deliver real-time buffering of entering sensor signals and
semi-real-time dispensation of the data, which necessitates
speed optimized filtering and intellectual algorithms.

perpendicular and straight axes and ambient light
concentration.
(2) Hardware specification of DAU
The 8051 design provides many gatherings (CPU,
RAM, ROM, I/O, interrupt logic, timer, UART, etc.) in
alone package.
Bluetooth component used in this scheme supports
synchronous speech data transmission (SCO link).
Communication amongst the microcontroller component
and 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: system
overview): Data Analysis, Connection Manager, Data
Logger and Visualization.
IV.
Connection Managers main task is to achieve lowlevel Bluetooth communication by using Host Controller
Interface instructions.
(2) Data Analysis Module
The module performs the study of the raw sensor data
in directive to obtain information around the operators
physiological circumstance. The separately running Data
Analysis 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 the
employed operators physiological situation along with a
broadcast of selected video source and his related sound
torrent. All the incoming alarm messages are immediately
notifies to the controller. The visualization module can be
set in the off-line style, where all the data is drawn from the
database. Inspecting all the logged physiological
constraints, alarms, video and auditory data the supervisor
is able to reconstruct the course of the nominated
operators duty.
(4) Data Logger Module
The module provides backing for storing the supervised
data in order to empower the administrator to rebuild and
investigate the operators duty. customer of the data is
stored in the database.
WHY BLUE EYES?
Human error is still one of the most recurrent causes of

all artificial disasters. Today human involvement to the on
the whole performance of the system is left unverified.
Since the system is made to act upon automatically, an
operator becomes a flaccid observer of the supervised
system, which causes plunge to wakefulness. It therefore is
imperative to assure that the operators cognizant brain is
involved in a dynamic system which will supervise over
the complete work time period. It is possible to measure
indirectly the stage of the operators conscious brain
involvement using eye movement examination. In large
control rooms, cabling the operator to the fundamental
structure is a severe drawback of his mobility and disables
DISADVANTAGES
The drawback of this system includes parameters linked

to cost and reliability. Cost because it is a complex system
having many sensors and hardware devices which increases
its cost. Reliability because it is dependent on high order
brain function of humans, which can sometimes make it
unreliable.
The new potential can cover such areas as commerce,
transportation (by air, by road and by sea), martial
command centers or operating theaters (anesthesiologists).
It is proposed that the system in its commercial discharge
will help avoid possible threats resulting from human
errors, such as fatigue, oversight, tiredness.

his operation. The wireless connection between the sensors

worn by the operator and the supervising structure offers
new way to system overall dependability and safety.
APPLICATIONS
Engineers at IBM's workplace :smart tags" Research

Center in San Jose, CA, account that a number of large
sellers have instigated surveillance systems that record and
understand customer movements, using software from
Almaden's Blue Eyes research project [2]. Blue Eyes is
evolving ways for computers to forestall users' wants by
gathering video data on eye movement and facial
countenance. Your gaze might rest on a Web site headline,
for example, and that would prompt your computer to
treasure similar links and to demand them up in a new
window. But the first concrete use for the research turns
out to be interfering on shoppers. Blue Eyes software
makes sagacity of what the cameras see to answer key
inquiries for retailers, including, how many shoppers
overlooked a promotion? How many stopped? How long
did they halt? Did their faces register tedium or delight?
How many reached for the article and put it in their
shopping carts? Blue Eyes works by stalking pupil,
eyebrow and mouth movement. When nursing pupils, the
system uses a camera and two infrared light foundations
placed inside the product display. One light cause is
aligned with the camera's focus; the other is somewhat off
axis. When the eye gazes into the camera-aligned light, the
pupil seems bright to the sensor, and the software records
the customer's attention. This is way it apprehensions the
person's income and buying predilections. Blue Eyes is
actively 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
