Blue Eyes Animal survival depends on highly developed sensory abilities. Likewise, human cognition depends on highly developed abilities to perceive, integrate, and interpret visual, auditory, and touch information. Without a doubt, computers would be much more powerful if they had even a small fraction of the perceptual ability of animals or humans. Adding such perceptual abilities to computers would enable computers and humans to work together more as partners. Toward this end, the BlueEyes project aims at creating computational devices with the sort of perceptual abilities that people take for granted. The Blue Eyes project is integrating information from video cameras, microphones, and other sensors to determine where users are, what they are saying, and how they are gesturing. There are a number of projects exploring how to gather and apply information, ranging from identifying who people are (using techniques such as voice ID or retinal scanning) to where they are (motion or IR sensing), and what they are doing
