I think I know what you're saying a 'faucet' is US for tap?
An electronic eye is something which detects the presence of your hands?
The detcetor can be a PIR sensor, which detects the IR radiation emitted by your hands, as I said above, an IR beam which gets broken when it's obscured by your hands or a capacitive sensor which senses the change in capacitance of some burred electrodes when your hands are near.
The valve is normally operated by a solenoid and there are lots of different types of valves but I don't know what type would be used to operate a tap.
