Abstract: Interactive prayer systems are provided, which include a pad that is adapted to be repeatedly stepped upon by a user; a first detection means for detecting when the user steps on the pad; a second detection means for detecting, and for creating proximity event data based upon, when the user is standing in proximity of specific areas within the pad; a communications means for communicating touch event data and proximity event data to a computer and a computer program executing on the computer; a display means connected to the computer, which displays the scripture to the user during prayer; and a notification means embedded in the pad for notifying the user when, and if, an error in the user's performance of the one or more prayer rituals is detected by the computer program. Methods of using such interactive prayer systems are also provided.

Abstract: A method and system are provided for creating multilingual computer programs. Programmers use their own native language in writing software instructions and commands and the invention translates those either to another native language or to a native-language-independent representation. The invention supports having a single computer program with multiple native languages.
