Abstract: Various aspects of the subject technology relate to systems, methods, and machine-readable media for providing and activating a link to artificial reality content in a shared artificial reality environment. Various aspects may include receiving a request to generate a visual navigation element for an artificial reality application configured to operate in the shared artificial reality environment, such as via a user representation. Aspects may include generating the visual navigation element and generating an audio element indicative of another user representation engaged in the artificial reality application for the user representation. Aspects may also include receiving an indication of activation of the visual navigation element and loading the artificial reality application for the user representation upon activation and while providing the audio element. Aspects may also include providing instructions to display the user representation in the artificial reality application upon completion of the loading.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for providing breath training. In illustrative embodiments, an operator creates a pressure, either positive or negative, in the lungs. This pressure is transferred through a mask assembly to a breathwork apparatus, which utilizes pistons moving within cylinder volumes to provide numerical feedback to an operator regarding the operator's breathing. Through breath control exercises, the operator of a breathwork apparatus can develop deeper and slower breathing habits which are more efficient. One embodiment provides a breathwork apparatus comprising an exhalation side; a transfer case; an inhalation side; and, a mask assembly, wherein the exhalation side and inhalation side are joined by transfer case which comprises a plurality of channels, such that at least a first channel of a plurality of channels terminates in an exhalation rate meter, and at least a second channel of the plurality of channels terminates in an inhalation rate meter.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes rendering, for one or more displays of a VR display device, a first output image of a VR environment. The VR environment includes a personal UI associated with a first user. The personal UI has a first form factor and a first pose with respect to the first user, is a virtual object comprising one or more 2D virtual displays, and is operable to execute a plurality of applications. The method includes determining whether to adapt the personal UI based on a detected change in a context of the first user with respect to the VR environment. The method includes rendering a second output image of the VR environment, where the personal UI is adapted to have a second form factor and a second pose with respect to the first user responsive to determining to adapt the personal UI based on the detected change in the context of the first user.

Abstract: System includes a haptic garment comprising an integrated circuit (IC) controller coupled to the haptic garment. A sensing circuit configured to cause to transmit a motion signal sensed by a portion of the haptic garment surface to the IC controller is provided. The motion signal is based on one or more of a touch pattern, a gesture pattern, and a movement pattern associated with a user of the haptic garment. The IC controller is configured to transmit a first data associated with the motion signal to an external device. Conductive traces embedded in the haptic garment that electrically couple with the sensing circuit.

Abstract: An embodiment a pressure compensated pH sensor apparatus, including: a pH sensing component comprising a sensing portion that is exposed to a fluid source when in use; a pressure chamber located in a position under the sensing portion and that surrounds all of the sensing portion not exposed to the fluid source when in use; and a pressure compensation mechanism located within the pressure chamber, wherein the pressure compensation mechanism reacts to pressure from an environment outside the apparatus, thereby support the sensing portion.

Abstract: A kit for sealing an architectural opening, such as a window or a door, is provided. The kit includes a clear vinyl sheet having a thickness of at least 1 millimeter and a magnetic strip. An adhesive backing extends along one side of the magnetic strip such that the magnetic strip is adhesively mountable to the vinyl sheet. The kit enables a consumer to easily seal the architectural opening by adhering the magnetic strip to the vinyl sheet, and then magnetically attaching the sheet over the architectural opening, thereby sealing the opening. The thickness and material of the sheet provides enhanced ease of use and durability.

Abstract: A portable, self-contained beverage apparatus includes a container assembly having a known storage capacity for storing a consumable liquid, and a dispensing assembly disposed within the container assembly that dispenses variable, non-zero quantities of additives into the consumable liquid. The dispensing assembly includes multiple apertures structured and arranged to retain vessels containing the additives to be dispensed into the consumable liquid. The beverage apparatus also includes a level sensor disposed within the container assembly that determines a consumable liquid level of the consumable liquid stored in the container assembly. In certain embodiments, one or more positive displacement pumping mechanisms are configured to pump additive liquid from additive containers into a beverage chamber.
