BLUE EYES
We communicate with others using visual, audio and sensory information (touch, smell, etc.). This is possible only because the human brain is highly skilled in integrating and interpreting such data. What if a computer can do the same? If computers can understand what we feel and act accordingly, the possibilities are endless!!! Blue Eyes technology being developed by the IBM research center at Alma den to make such "Smart" Computers. In this paper, basic concepts of Blue Eyes are discussed. The motivation and the benefits of Blue Eyes are also mentioned in this context. The concepts and design of the software's included in Blue Eyes are also carried out in detail. At IBM's lab, researchers are talking the lofty goal of designing 'Blue Eyes', its aim being to create devices with embedded technology that gathers your personal information. They'll track your pulse, breathing rate, and eye movements, and then react to those physical triggers by performing tracks for you. Following your movements of your eyes, the "gaze-tracking" technology uses MAGIC to control your mouse. With MAGIC, the cursor follows your eyes as you look around the screen. When your eye stops on an object, you click the mouse to select it. Also current versions of gaze tracking technology only come within an inch or so of its target.
