Abstract: The disclosed technology addresses the need in the art to enable users to broadcast a status that indicates that a user is inviting others to join their livestream, such that they are either prepared to livestream or is livestreaming. An invite-to-join status may be limited to the specific friends and community members of the user's choosing. If the user has no viewer yet, the user will not broadcast a livestream and will continue with what they are doing, such as playing a game or watching a movie. Once a first viewer joins, then the user screen may be broadcasted into a livestream.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for searching electronic documents is provided. The method executing a non-semantic search, such as lexical search, to identify documents from a document corpus that meet the search criteria of the non-semantic search. A subsequent semantic search can be scoped based on the results of the non-semantic search. The method can thus include executing a semantic search scoped to the documents identified in the non-semantic search result to generate a semantic search result that identifies content that is semantically relevant to a natural language query. Thus, the semantically relevant content can have both non-semantic (e.g., lexical) and semantic relevance.

Abstract: Augmented reality-based training and troubleshooting is described for medical devices. An electronic mobile device can be equipped with an AR application that, when executed, causes the electronic mobile device to provide augmented reality-based training on how to set up, or perform maintenance on, one or more components of a medical device. The AR application, when executed, can also cause the electronic mobile device to provide augmented reality-based troubleshooting for one or more components of a medical device.
