Abstract: A modeling system receives, in association with generating a three-dimensional (3D) virtual reset, a selection of a 3D virtual object. The modeling system presents, at a user interface, the 3D virtual object in the 3D virtual reset at a first position.

The modeling system updates the presentation of the 3D virtual reset by showing the edit. The modeling system stores the 3D virtual reset by including, in the 3D virtual reset, information about the 3D virtual object and information about the edit.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and systems that relay domain-event objects within an enhanced multi-platform data stream to listen for and react to digital events indicated by the domain-event objects that occur across a wide variety of computing platforms. Specifically, the disclosed systems can receive domain-event objects within the multi-platform data stream. From among the domain-even objects transmitted through the multi-platform data stream, the disclosed systems can identify a domain-event object that is relevant to a digital-analytics platform by identifying domain-event objects that include properties satisfying domain-event-listener rules. Based on an entity identifier and an object event from the relevant domain-event object, the disclosed systems can perform a platform action within the digital-analytics platform (e.g., to react to a change in another platform as indicated by the domain-event object).

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods that provide a graphical user interface for intuitively generating digital action sequences across one or more digital platforms. For example, the disclosed systems generate graphical user interfaces with tools to construct digital action sequences of platform actions performed based on event triggers. To facilitate building such digital action sequences, in some cases, the disclosed systems provide data for digital-action-sequence templates for easy selection of pre-matched event triggers and platform actions or tools to mix-and-match combinations of specific event triggers and platform actions. By providing such intuitive tools in a centralized graphical user interface, the disclosed systems can connect events across multiple platforms or across disconnected components of a single platform.

Abstract: An applicator for a microprojection array is described. In one embodiment, the applicator comprises an energy-storing element. Application of force causes the compressed energy-storing element to extend or transition from first and second configurations, releasing stored energy to deploy a holding member in the application which is configured to hold an array of microprojections. In another embodiment, the applicator comprises an energy storing element with two stable configurations, a first stable configuration and second stable configuration. Application of force causes the energy-storing element to transition from the higher energy first stable configuration to the lower energy second stable configuration, releasing the difference in energies of the two states to deploy a holding member in the application which is configured to hold an array of microprojections.
