 INTRODUCTION
The BLUE EYES technology aims at
creating computational machines that
have perceptual and sensory ability
like those of human beings. It uses
non-obtrusige sensing method,
employing most modern video
cameras and microphones to identifies
the users actions through the use of
imparted sensory abilities .
 Types of Emotional Sensors
• Emotion Mouse

• Expression Glasses

• Conductor’s Jacket

• Turn—Styles
Emotion Mouse
 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 .
Expression Glasses
 Expression Glasses
 A wearable device which allows any viewer
to visualize the confusion and interest
levels of the wearer.
 Related technology is 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.
 Types of emotional sensors
 Body
Conductor’s Jacket
A jacket with an embedded sensor net
worn by a conductor helps extend the
conductor’s ability to express emotion and
intentionality.
 Speech
Turn—Styles
A personalizing conversational speech
interface agent designed for affective
communication, which adjust speaking
style to the user.
 Experiment
 Theory
Based on Paul Ekman’s facial expression
work.
 Experiment
 To test the reliability of Emotional Sensors
Ex: Emotion Mouse
 6 Participants
 4 Physiological Readings
Heart rate
Temperature
Galvanic Skin Response (GSR)
Somatic Movement
 Experimental Design
 Chest strap sensor
Used to measure the heart rate.
 Thermocouple
Used to measure the temperature.
 Digital multimeter (DMM)
Used to measure GSR.
 Procedure
 Participants were asked to sit in front
of the computer and hold the
temperature and GSR sensors in
their left hand & hold the mouse with
their right hand and wore the chest
sensors.
 Participants were asked to express
the emotions.
 Results
 Table 1 shows the mean and the
standard deviation.
 Results
 Table 2 shows the Standardized
Discriminant Function Coefficient.
 Conclusions of the Experiment
 The results show the theory behind the
Emotion mouse’s work is fundamentally
sound.
 Next step is to improve the hardware.
 Human Operator Monitoring
System
 It is Based on Blue Eyes Technology.

 It provides technical means for monitoring

and recording human operator’s
physiological condition.
 Key Feature
 Visual attention monitoring (eye motility
analysis)

 Physiological condition monitoring (pulse

rate, blood oxy.)

 Operator’s position detection (standing,

lying, sitting).
 Application
 In every working environment requiring
permanent operator’s attention.
 Generic control rooms
Power station
Captain bridge
Flight control centers
Operating theatres – anesthesiologists
 Future Ahead
 Can be used in automobiles, remote
controls and telephones.

 Can be implemented in computer training

or education programs.

 Household devices.
 Conclusion
 In the near future ,ordinary household
devices- such as television ,
refrigerators ,ovens may be able to do
their jobs when we look at them and
speak to them.

 Future applications of blue eye technology

is limitless.
