Abstract: A computing system helps a user in an extended reality (XR) learning experience achieve mastery through personalized, programmable and conversational coaching. One aspect is that the XR learning experience may consist of a plurality of tasks associated with the user. A second aspect is that the XR learning experience can define different types of conversational interventions triggered by the computing system at various times. A third aspect is that some tasks or interventions can make use of a conversational assistant. A fourth aspect is that as the user is going through the XR learning experience, the system determines which, if any, interventions can be triggered based on the user's state.

Abstract: Intelligent voice response systems and methods may include one or more machine readable instructions stored in a memory that cause a processor to receive an automated input including at least two of the following: a vehicle metric of the vehicle, a driving score of a user of the vehicle, a driving time during a trip of the vehicle, a geographical location of the vehicle, an adverse weather event within a predetermined distance of the vehicle, a historical driving route of the vehicle, a predicted driving route of the vehicle within a first predetermined period of time, or a sound within a predetermined distance of the vehicle. An action may be generated and implemented and reception of an affirmative response from the user may be determined. An alert may be generated to the user based on the affirmative response.

Abstract: A security booklet has a cover foldable about an axis; a set of page sheets stitched together along the axis about which they can be folded to define a set of pages, wherein each page sheet is formed of a single fibrous sheet; wherein one part of one of the page sheets laterally offset from the axis is adhered to the cover, while another part of the one page sheet can be folded separately from the cover and the other pages about the axis.

Abstract: The present invention concerns enhancements in the cooling effects of certain physiological coolant-containing compositions such as topically applied cosmetic, toiletry or pharmaceutical products, wherein the cooling effect of the physiological coolants is enhanced by the addition of a substance according to formula (I) or dermatologically acceptable salts thereof: R1—CR2(OR3)—CO—NR4—CR5R6—X—OR7??(I) It was found that substances represented by formula (I) are capable of bringing about greater cooling effects from reduced concentrations of physiological coolants without behaving as physiological coolants themselves, thereby enabling the preparation of compositions that do not necessarily have the characteristic minty odor of menthol-containing products and/or to allow greater freedom in creating perfumed products.
