  • Publication number: 20240024783
    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure include systems and techniques for generating content that indicates a sensation associated with audio. One example method generally includes monitoring audio to be played during display of an associated portion of an interactive content stream provided over a communication network to at least one viewing device during an interactive session, and analyzing, via a machine learning component, the audio to determine a sensation associated with at least a portion of the audio. The method may also include determining an effect indicating the sensation, wherein the effect is associated with one or more output devices associated with the at least one viewing device, and outputting an indication of the effect to the associated output devices, wherein the effect is configured to be output along with the audio in real-time with the display of the associated portion of the interactive content stream.

  • Publication number: 20220265536
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to depilatory compositions comprising a depilatory active, alkali metal hydroxide and an aminoalkylpropanol. The compositions have a pH in the range of from 10 to 12.5. The depilatory active preferably contains a thiol group, the alkali metal hydroxide preferably comprises potassium hydroxide and the aminoalkylpropanol preferably comprises aminomethylpropanol. The composition is preferably a gel, mousse, foam, cream, lotion or peelable film, especially a translucent or transparent gel. The depilatory compositions provide effective hair removal yet are well tolerated by the skin and allow for acceptable application times of the composition. The present invention further provides a depilatory composition comprising urea, a carbomer, and a gum; these compositions may or may not comprise aminoalkylpropanol.
