  • Patent number: 11960790
    Abstract: A computer implemented method includes detecting user interaction with mixed reality displayed content in a mixed reality system. User focus is determined as a function of the user interaction based on the user interaction using a spatial intent model. A length of time for extending voice engagement with the mixed reality system is modified based on the determined user focus. Detecting user interaction with the displayed content may include tracking eye movements to determine objects in the displayed content at which the user is looking and determining a context of a user dialog during the voice engagement.

  • Publication number: 20210022658
    Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods for testing and assessing preference (e.g., taste preference). In one aspect, various aspects of an individuals taste preferences (e.g., degree an individual likes/dislikes a taste ingredient, degree an individual is willing to pay to keep/exclude a taste ingredient) are tested and assessed. In a further aspect, the taste preferences of a plurality of individuals are tested, assessed, and compared and, optionally, individuals are rewarded for their taste preference(s). Apparatus, computer readable media and systems for implementing the taste preference assessment and provision of rewards are also provided.

  • Patent number: 10495547
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for designing a built-in test is described. The method includes receiving, via a processor, a subsystem model including system parameters for a heat exchanger, wherein each of the system parameters includes a sensor variance; determining, via the processor, a test design vector based on one or more of the system parameters; and designing, via the processor, the built-in test based on the test design vector.
