In this paper we present the research conducted on synchronous measurements of biosignals. The experiment was conducted to evaluate the possibility of estimating vital signs based on eye tracking. Method: The eGlasses platform was used for acquisition of ECG, respiration rate, eye and pupil movement and blood pressure. Data were acquired in three 5 min. intervals during which a subject was performing certain tasks. The signals were filtered and resampled. The correlation between blood pressure, respiration and pupil dilation was calculated. Results: The measurements were conducted on 12 healthy volunteers. The obtained correlation coefficient was similar for all people and measurement positions. Conclusions: The electronic eyewear like eGlasses can be utilized to measure and process essential vital signs. Although some results are promising, estimating a value of blood pressure or hart rate based on data provided by eye tracking module requires some further studies.
