According to an embodiment of the present invention, a method for detecting allergens using smart tooth and IoT is provided. The method includes obtaining real-time environmental allergen context data, wherein the obtained real-time environmental allergen context data includes visual data and sensor data. Features are extracted from the obtained real-time environmental allergen context data, including at least one detected environmental allergen type, an environmental allergen exposure pathway, and an environmental allergen concentration. A real-time unique allergic reaction risk score is generated for a user based on analysis of a user allergic risk profile and the extracted features from the obtained real-time environmental allergen context data. A real-time warning is generated to the user when the generated unique allergic reaction risk score exceeds a predetermined threshold.

Detecting allergens using internet of things

A cane for increased sweep coverage includes a first time-of-flight (TOF) sensor, a haptic feedback generator and a processor. The first TOF sensor is disposed at a first end of the cane and is configured to emit a first TOF beam. The haptic feedback generator is disposed towards a second end of the cane that is distally opposite from the first end of the cane. The processor is configured to receive signal data from the first TOF sensor, determine, based on the received signal data, whether an obstacle is present within the first TOF beam, and activate the haptic feedback generator in a first haptic feedback pattern in response to the processor determining that the obstacle is present. A method for using the cane to detect obstacles is also provided.

An approach for improving completely automated public turing test to tell computers and humans apart (CAPTCHA) reliability for a resource. The approach receives a request for a CAPTCHA validation from a user. The approach retrieves a CAPTCHA analysis configuration associated with the user. The approach displays a CAPTCHA multi-zone display defined by the configuration. The approach receives video input containing adjunct objects, associated with objects visible on the user, from the user for the multi-zone display. The approach determines if the inputs are valid based on the CAPTCHA analysis configuration. The approach, responsive to the inputs being valid, allows access to the resource.

Multi-factor captcha with adjunct signals

A capture operation is identified. The capture operation is performed by a first capture device. The capture operation is of a video steam of a subject that is located in an environment. The video stream includes a perspective of the subject. A capture limitation of the first capture device, related to capturing the subject, is determined. In response to the capture limitation one or more candidate capture devices in the environment are detected. A second capture device is selected as a selected capture device, from the one or more candidate capture devices. The second capture device is instructed to perform the capture operation. The video stream is transferred from the first capture device to the second capture device; the transfer maintains the perspective.

Multiple entity video capture coordination

A vehicle and/or fleet of vehicles that are equipped with: (i) a wind velocity detection device (for example, an ultrasonic wind velocity detection device); and (ii) a vehicle velocity detection device (for example, lidar or a speedometer and compass). Computer hardware performs two dimensional, or three dimensional, vector calculations in order to net out a stationary wind velocity from the measurements made at each vehicle. The computer hardware and software for performing the vector calculations and outputting stationary wind speed may be located in the vehicle or remotely from it (for example, at the headquarters of a weather prediction company).

Technology for calculating stationary wind speed from a moving vehicle

A computer-implemented method includes: presenting, by a computing device, a virtual event user interface to an attendee of a virtual event; obtaining, by the computing device, data about actions performed by the attendee within the virtual event; creating, by the computing device, a tensile sphere kernel that is specific to the attendee using the obtained data; creating, by the computing device, a mixed tensile sphere kernel using the tensile sphere kernel that is specific to the attendee and another tensile sphere kernel of another attendee; determining, by the computing device, an event recommendation of the virtual event using the mixed tensile sphere kernel; and presenting, by the computing device, the event recommendation to the attendee by changing the virtual event user interface to show the event recommendation.

Text is received from a user describing item(s) for migration to a computing environment with cloud feature(s), resulting in item description(s), the text including unstructured text that are processed separately. Text mining is performed on the unstructured text to extract item feature(s). For each listing a portion of the unstructured text is extracted, resulting in an extracted text portion for each listing from which an entity is identified. Each entity or item feature is mapped to cloud feature(s) available from solution(s) with cloud feature(s). Based on the cloud feature(s), recommendation(s) are made to the user regarding cloud feature(s) of the solution(s) for optional consideration by the user. Explanation(s) for the recommended cloud feature(s) from explainability model(s) may be provided to the user.

Embodiments of the invention are directed to a computer-implemented method that includes receiving, using a processor, data representing a 3D physical object by a processing device, and controlling, using the processor, a 3D printing device to apply successive layers of a material by a printing head including a nozzle. The controlling includes depositing at least one layer by instructing a snake robot of a configurable track system to form a shape and define a movement track that corresponds to a movement profile aligned with the 3D model, moving the printing head along the movement track defined by the snake robot, and depositing the at least one layer via the nozzle as the printing head is moved along the movement track.
