  • Patent number: 12380661
    Abstract: A digital model is generated of a debris location where the digital model includes an augmented reality overlay of the debris location. Digital data from sensors at a debris field is received at a computer, and the digital data depicts debris in the debris field. Materials in the debris field are detected and identified based on the detected materials in the debris field. Layers of materials in the debris field are identified. A digital model is generated of the materials in the debris field including in the layers. Using the computer and an augmented reality (AR) device, an augmented reality overlay is generated based on the digital model of the materials in the debris fields. The augmented reality overlay is superimposed over the digital model of the materials in the debris field to indicate the materials in the debris field and the materials in the layers of the debris field.

  • Publication number: 20250245025
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for identifying, by a processor set, a cluster of users by learning from their interactions in a first virtual environment. The processor set may further classify characteristics of an avatar associated with each user of the cluster of users in the first virtual environment and generate a secure portal visible only to users of the cluster of users to teleport to a second virtual environment. The processor set may also generate a guest profile and a guest avatar in the second virtual environment for each user of the cluster of users. The processor may also adapt the guest avatar for each user of the cluster of users based on a theme of the second virtual environment and generate a new profile prefilled with data collected from previous virtual environments that contain a subset of profile data required for the second virtual environment.

  • Patent number: 12361602
    Abstract: In an approach for providing a user with a set of information on a feature of a comparable product and enabling the user to assess the feature by overlaying the user's product with a digital twin of the comparable product, a processor identifies a first product in a surrounding of the user by comparing an image of the first product to one or more images stored in a product corpus. A processor searches, based on the first product, the product corpus for one or more products within a family of the first product. A processor selects a second product from the product corpus based in part on a set of product comparison preferences. A processor overlays the first product with a digital twin of the second product. A processor simulates a feature associated with the second product that is different from a feature associated with the first product.

  • Publication number: 20250219970
    Abstract: In an approach for providing contextual conversational user assistance, a processor monitors a plurality of inputs by a user to a computing device. Responsive to determining, based on the monitoring, that an error rate associated with the plurality of inputs has exceeded a threshold level, a processor invokes a conversational large learning model (LLM). A processor queries the user regarding a mental state and a task of the user using the conversational LLM. A processor identifies one or more methods to assist the user based on a response of the user to the querying. A processor executes the one or more methods identified to assist the user.
