Abstract: A method for processing multiple intents from an audio stream in an extended reality application may include multiple steps, including: receiving a stream of words as a first utterance; processing the first utterance before the stream of words is fully received; based on the processing, determining a first intent from the first utterance before the stream of words is fully received; determining occurrence of a pause after the first utterance; and receiving a second stream of words as a second utterance, the second stream being received after the determined pause.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products are provided herein for hyperspectral imaging based electronic authentication resource transfers. An example method includes receiving a resource transfer request associated with at least a first user and receiving hyperspectral image data associated with the first user. The method further includes extracting, via a hyperspectral imaging module, one or more account credentials of the first user from the hyperspectral image data. The method also includes effectuating the resource transfer associated with an account of the first user as defined by the one or more account credentials. The hyperspectral image data may be generated in response to an image capturing operation performed by the hyperspectral imaging module and may be indicative of a hyperspectral image supported by a resource transfer object.

Abstract: A processor comprises a computational array of computational elements and an instruction dispatch circuit.
