Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for adaptably authenticating a user are disclosed. A device captures a user input, and sends data corresponding thereto to a system. The system determines natural language understanding (NLU) results representing the user input. A user authentication component of the system receives the NLU results and determines a skill configured to perform an action responsive to the user input. The user authentication component adaptably performs user authentication based on a user authentication condition associated with the skill. If the user can be authenticated to the satisfaction of the condition, the NLU results data are sent to the skill, along with an indicator representing the user was authenticated by the system.

Abstract: A computing system and method for producing and consuming metadata within multi-dimensional data is provided. The computing system comprising a see-through display, a sensor system, and a processor configured to: in a recording phase, generate an annotation at a location in a three dimensional environment, receive, via the sensor system, a stream of telemetry data recording movement of a first user in the three dimensional environment, receive a message to be recorded from the first user, and store, in memory as annotation data for the annotation, the stream of telemetry data and the message, and in a playback phase, display a visual indicator of the annotation at the location, receive a selection of the visual indicator by a second user, display a simulacrum superimposed onto the three dimensional environment and animated according to the telemetry data, and present the message via the animated simulacrum.

Abstract: A method is disclosed that includes accessing a building information modeling database comprising building information data of a structure. A position of a head-mounted display device with respect to the structure may be tracked, with the head-mounted display device comprising an at least partially see-through display. In response to a portal user input, a world-locked holographic portal may be displayed via the device on a surface of the structure, where the portal comprises a world-locked holographic representation of a portion of the structure otherwise hidden from view by the surface. In response to an operation user input, a virtual operation is performed on the structure, and the building information modeling database is updated based on the virtual operation.

Abstract: A container (186) is provided with a tubular body (188) of a multi-plied material. The body (188) has an openable end (190) and a sealed end (192) with foldable and securable closure element that facilitate the non-destructive repeated opening and closing of the container (186). The closure element is integrally formed with the container (186) by the shape cutting and folded formation of the container end (190) during manufacture. The closure element is sectioned to include an openable section (196) which incorporates discharge element in the form of a pouring spout for discharge of container contents, and a closed section (198) which is adapted to incorporate carrying element (298) such as a handle.
