  • Patent number: 11979494
    Abstract: The disclosed exemplary embodiments include computer-implemented systems, devices, and processes that securely manage and regenerate cryptographic keys using permissioned distributed ledgers. For example, a device may receive, from a first computing system, data indicative of a recordation of a first public key onto a distributed ledger. Based on an occurrence of a regeneration condition, the device may transmit, to a second computing system, a second public key and a first digital signature, and the second computing system may validate the first digital signature, apply a second digital signature to the second public key, and transmit the second public key and the digital signatures to the first computing system. The device also receives, from the first computing system, additional data indicative of a recordation of the second public key onto the distributed ledger, and based on the additional data, the device may invalidate the first private key.

  • Publication number: 20240104858
    Abstract: Creating scent models and using scent models in cross-reality environments can include capturing experience data identifying a scent detected and a context in which the scent was detected. The experience data can be provided to a scent modeling service to generate a scent model that can represent perceived scents and perceived scent intensities for a user. The scent model can be used to generate cross-reality session data to be used in a cross-reality session presented by a cross-reality device. The cross-reality device can include a scent generator and can generate the cross-reality session using data obtained from the user device. The cross-reality device can generate a further scent during the cross-reality session based on the scent model.

  • Publication number: 20230402158
    Abstract: Virtual assistants (VAs) can be managed in interactions with users, other VAs, and devices, including in connection with medical care associated with users. A VA management component (VAMC) can analyze medical information and other information relating to users, including information obtained by a VA(s) from a user(s). Based on the analysis, VAMC can determine a model relating to medical care associated with users. VAMC can determine a proposed action relating to the health or medical care associated with a user based on the model. A VA can present action information relating to the proposed action, or other information relating to health or medical care associated with the user, to the user or a device associated with the user. VAMC can determine drug-drug or drug-food interactions or side effects, and the VA can notify the user regarding the drug-drug or drug-food interactions or side effects.
