  • Patent number: 11487416
    Abstract: A method and system are provided. The method includes providing an actionable business entity operating model. The method further includes extending the actionable business entity operating model to drive user interface behavior on a user interface device having at least a display device, by extending class and property meta classes of the actionable business entity operating model to include user interface behavior semantics. The extending step includes configuring the user interface behavior semantics to be responsive to an operation state of the actionable business entity operating model.

  • Patent number: 11040168
    Abstract: Methods, computer program products, and systems are presented. The methods include, for instance: preparation of a user profile for a user whose stress response is being managed to attain a goal response. A use mode is determined according to objectives for the goal response. An Augmented Reality (AR) environment customized for the user is generated according to a use mode configuration corresponding to the use mode, and delivered to the user via a user AR device. Responses by the user to the AR environment is monitored by IoT devices, cognitively analyzed, and a determination if the goal response has been attained would be made according to the monitored user response.

  • Patent number: 10970858
    Abstract: A method for identifying the status of object within a region that includes designating at least one piece of equipment to be tracked and recording a history for the piece of equipment. The method may further include detecting when the piece of equipment is present within a region having a set of object restrictions. The method further includes comparing the set of object restrictions for the region to the history that is recorded for the piece of equipment that is present in the region to calculate a placement score with a hardware processor that indicates whether the history of the equipment is a match for the region that the equipment is present in. A sensory signal may be projector onto the equipment in an augmented reality setting, the sensory signal indicating whether the history of the equipment is a match for the region that the equipment is present in.

  • Publication number: 20200211305
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products leveraging data analytics, machine learning, biometrics and blockchain technologies to track, modify and validate compliance with the rules governing access to regulated locations. Rules are ingested from data sources, based on the locations described by a travel itinerary, and rule requirements are generated based on the ingested rules. Traveler can upload each of the required travel documents to a blockchain, secured using biometric data locked to the traveler's identity. The rule requirement progress is monitored, and a remediation report is generated to guide the traveler's actions toward meeting each rule requirement prior to the scheduled itinerary being implemented. On the date of arriving at the destinations scheduled on the itinerary, agents or officials authorizing access to the location can retrieve documents uploaded to the blockchain by scanning the traveler and matching biometric data to the identity data stored by the blockchain.
