Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, apparatus, article of manufacture, method and/or computer program product embodiments, and/or combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for providing voice control using multiple digital assistants. In some embodiments, a voice platform operates to receive a voice input from a user. The voice platform selects a digital assistant from a plurality of digital assistants based on a trigger word. The voice platform then generates an intent from the voice input using the selected digital assistant. The voice platform then transmits the intent to a media device for processing.

Abstract: A clearing blade adapted to be attached to a machine. The clearing blade includes a moldboard having a curved structure, a pair of stingers extending forwardly of the moldboard and arranged in a spaced apart arrangement from opposing lateral ends of the clearing blade. Each stinger includes a penetration portion adapted to penetrate and form a vertical cut. The clearing blade further includes a center blade arranged centrally to the moldboard, and an angled side blade extending inwardly from each of the pair of stingers towards the center blade. Each angled side blade is arranged in a substantially horizontal plane and is arranged at an obtuse angle relative to the center blade. Moreover, the clearing blade includes a plurality of attachment members such as, for example, a plurality of trunnion balls for engaging the clearing blade with the machine.

Abstract: A moisture-retentive fabric medium includes a hydrophilic, thermoplastic polyester fiber as a blend of from 10-905% or 20-80% by total weight of textile fibers and 90-10% or 80-20% by total weight of hydrophilic textile fibers and less than 0.5% by weight of total fabric medium as microfibrillated cellulose fiber and less than 0.05% by weight superabsorbent polymers, the polyester having a melting point between 190-500 F when measured in accordance with ASTM D-3418.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, for collaborative online shopping between a customer and a retailer representative. A communication channel is provided through which communication channel the customer and representative discuss items available for purchase on a retailer website. The communication channel can accommodate different communication modalities for the customer and the representative. A shared virtual shopping basket is provided, for adding or removing items by the customer or representative. The basket is synchronously shared between, and viewable by, the customer and representative. When the customer or the representative adds, removes or changes an item, the basket is updated to reflect the changes, and a notification is sent to the customer and/or representative about the updates to the basket. When shopping is complete, the contents is transferred to a shopping cart at the retailer website to complete the purchase.

Abstract: An inventory data management system manages information related to items, such as implants, used during a medical procedure. The inventory data management system includes multiple sensing devices for reading set identification information from a container in which the set of items is disposed. The sensing devices are connected to a communication network and are placed in multiple locations, where each location is associated with a particular status of the set of items. The system also includes an inventory management computer that executes an inventory management application for receiving the set identification information from the communication network, and associating the set identification information with set status information based on the location of the sensing device that read the set identification information. An item inventory database stores the set identification information in association with the set status information.

Abstract: A synthetic acid composition for use in oil industry activities, said composition comprising: urea and hydrogen chloride in a molar ratio of not less than 0.1:1; and an alcohol or derivative thereof optionally, it may further comprise a phosphonic acid derivative.

Abstract: A synthetic acid composition for use in oil industry activities, said composition comprising: urea and hydrogen chloride in a molar ratio of not less than 0.1:1 and formic acid or a derivative thereof.

Abstract: A bio air sterilization system and method of use thereof is provided that can remove and render benign harmful contaminants and particulates, such as bacteria, viruses, and molds, from air within an enclosed area, as well as, in principle, from the exposed surfaces located within the enclosed area. In one aspect, the sterilization system includes a self contained, mobile sterilization unit that includes at least an ultraviolet array, an air flow control mechanism for diverting the air flow within the system through either a filter or through an ozone removal zone, an ozone generator, and a blower apparatus to pull the air through the system and out through ports, such as a nozzle system, to the surrounding environment.
