Blue Eyes
ABSTRACT:
INTRODUCTION:
What is BlueEyes?
? BLUE EYES is a technology, which aims at creating computational machines that have
perceptual and sensory abilities like those of human beings.
? The basic idea behind this technology is to give computer human power.
? For example, we can understand humansâ emotional state by his facial expressions. If we
add these perceptual abilities to computers, we would enable them to work together with human
beings as intimate partners.
? Blue in this term stands for Bluetooth, which enables reliable wireless communication and the
Eyes because the eye movement enables us to obtain a lot of interesting and important
information.
? As the idea is to monitor and record operatorâs basic physiological parameters, the most
important physiological activity is the movement of eyes.
? For a computer to sense the eye movement, wiring between operator and the system is
required.
But, this is a serious limitation of the operatorâs mobility and disables his operations in large
control rooms.
? Yes, human error is still one of the most frequent causes of catastrophes (calamity) and
ecological disasters, because human contribution to the overall performance of the system is left
unsupervised.
? The control instruments within the machine have automated it to large extent, thus Human
operator becomes a passive observer of the supervised system, resulting in weariness and
vigilance drop, but the user needs to active.
But Why?
? Thus, itâs crucial that operatorâs brain is involved in an active system supervising over
the whole work time period.
? It has the ability to gather information about you and interact with you through special
techniques like facial recognition, speech recognition, etc.
? It can verify your identity, feel your presence, and start interacting with you.
? The machine can understand what a user wants, where he is looking at, and even realize his
physical or emotional states.
? For instance if you ask the computer to dial to your friend at his office, it understands the
situation and establishes a connection.
? Physiological data, operator’s voice and overall view of the control room recording
? The blue eyes system checks the physiological parameters like eye movement, heart beat rate
and blood oxygenation against abnormal and undesirable values and triggers user-defined alarms
when necessary.
? Blue eyes technology requires designing a personal area network linking all the operators and
the supervising system.
? As the operator using his sight and hearing, senses the state of the controlled system, the
supervising system will look after his physiological condition.
? The use of a miniature CMOS camera integrated into the eye movement sensor will enable the
system to calculate the point of gaze and observe what the operator is actually looking at.
? Introducing voice recognition algorithm will facilitate the communication between the operator
and the central system and simplify authorization process.
STRUCTURE:
? Blue eyes system consists of a mobile measuring device called Data Acquisition Unit (DAU)
and a central analytical system called Central System Unit (CSU).
? Delivers the alarm messages sent from the Central System Unit (CSU) to the operator.
? Jazz Multisensor:
⢠Itâs an eye movement sensor, to provide necessary physiological data in Data Acquisition
Unit (DAU).
⢠It supplies raw digital data regarding eye position, the level of blood oxygenation
acceleration along horizontal and vertical axes and ambient light intensity.
⢠Eye movement can be measured using direct infrared oculographic transducers.
JAZZ MULTISENSOR
TYPES OF USERS:
⢠Operators
⢠Supervisors
Operator:
? The only functions offers to the operator are Authorization 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-workersâ condition and mobile device state.
Supervisor:
System Administrator:
? The administrator is delivered tools for adding new operators to the database. Defining alarm
conditions.
ADMINISTRATIVE
APPLICATIONS:
? Blue Eyes system can be applied in every working environment requiring permanent operator’s
attention.
? At captain bridges.
? Professional drivers.
Conclusion:
? The wireless link between the sensors worn by the operator and the supervising system makes
it possible to improve overall reliability, safety and assures proper quality of system
performance.
? These new possibilities can cover areas such as industry, transportation, military command
centers or operation 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 their feelings.
? It avoids potential threats resulting from human errors, such as weariness, oversight, tiredness.
