Abstract: A method includes outputting, on a GUI while a processor operates in a first operating state (OS), one or more spins of a reel set and determining whether a first running total of displayed symbols exceeds a respective first threshold of a first and/or second reward system. The method includes outputting a reward because the first running total exceeds a respective first threshold of the reward systems. The method includes transitioning the processor from operating in the first OS to a second OS, and outputting, on a GUI while the processor operates in the second OS, one or more spins of the reel set for the second OS. The method includes determining whether a second running total of displayed symbols exceeds a respective second threshold of the first and/or second reward system, and outputting a reward because the second running total exceeds a respective second threshold of the reward systems.

Abstract: A medicament for dental procedures includes a first component comprising an oxidizing agent, and a second component comprising a calcium complexing agent, wherein when the first component is mixed with the second component, the pH is greater than 6.2. Kits including the medicament and methods of use of the medicament are disclosed.

Abstract: A learner engagement engine provides a unique way to track and measure a learner's engagement across a plurality of different learning resources. In preferred embodiments, the learning engagement engine measures learner's engagement activities at the most detailed level (such as at a paragraph level, instead of a chapter or book level). This allows the learner engagement engine to easily aggregate learner activities, even when a course structure or context are changed during the course.

Abstract: Systems and methods for an oven include a housing, a heating chamber positioned within the housing, an external nesting rack coupled to the housing, the external nesting rack is stationary while coupled to the housing, and a movable cook surface, the movable cook surface movable between a position completely within the heating chamber and a position at least partially external to the heating chamber, such that when the movable cook surface is in the position at least partially external to the heating chamber, the movable cook surface is positioned at least partially recessed below a top surface of the external nesting rack.

Abstract: Systems and methods of the present invention provide for receiving, from a client, a request for a collaborative environment; displaying the collaborative environment; recording a plurality of attempt steps including events input by a learner to solve a problem, and solution steps input into the collaborative environment by an instructor, which identifies a timestamp within the plurality of events and generates alternative events solving the problem. The system then receives a request to reproduce the collaborative environment; and generates a reproduction of the collaborative environment.

Abstract: The invention relates to the application of photon energy to energize dental materials to enhance their physical handling characteristics, efficacy, ability to be delivered, reactivity, polymerization, and/or post-cure mechanical properties, among other attributes.

Abstract: A clutch assist apparatus that has a casing, a controller, a position sensor that communicates with the controller to identify the position of a hand lever, a motor controlled by the controller and coupled to the casing, a cable pulling lever pivotally coupled to the casing about a rotation axis and configured to be coupled to a clutch cable, the cable pulling lever being movable between a first position and a second position. Wherein, the cable pulling lever selectively transitions a clutch assembly between an engaged position when the cable pulling lever is in the first position and a disengaged position when the cable pulling lever is in the second position. Further wherein, the cable pulling lever is movable between the first position and the second position by either the motor or the hand lever.

Abstract: Systems and methods for an oven include a housing, a heating chamber positioned within the housing, at least one oven door to provide access to the heating chamber, an external nesting rack positionable on or near the housing, and a movable cook surface, the movable cook surface movable between a position within the heating chamber and a position at least partially external to the heating chamber, such that when the movable cook surface is in the position at least partially external to the heating chamber, the movable cook surface is positioned at least partially recessed below a top surface of the external nesting rack. One or more heat packs can be included to provide variable forms of heat to the heating chamber.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a system and method for image to world registration for medical reality applications, using a world spatial map. This invention is a system and method to link any point in a fluoroscopic image to its corresponding position in the visual world using spatial mapping with a head mounted display (HMD) (world tracking). On a projectional fluoroscopic 2D image, any point on the image can be thought of as representing a line that is perpendicular to the plane of the image that intersects that point. The point itself could lie at any position in space along this line, located between the X-Ray source and the detector. With the aid of the HMD, a virtual line is displayed in the visual field of the user.

Abstract: A compact oven is disclosed. The compact oven includes a housing having a cavity for receiving food items, and one or more blowers for directing heated air into the cavity. The compact oven also includes an air deflection plate coupled to a nozzle plate having multiple nozzles for capturing and directing a portion of heated air from the blower to the cavity via nozzles located between the air deflection plate and the nozzle plate, while allowing the remaining heated air exiting the blower to move into the cavity via nozzles not located between the air deflection plate and the nozzle plate such that the velocities of heated air exiting all nozzles into the cavity are as close to each other as possible.
