Systems and methods are presented for a hardware accessory, with embedded logical features, that facilitates communication with a password manager and expeditious text entry in application login dialogue screens. The hardware accessory is embodied as a portable electronic apparatus, such as a USB accessory that may be physically attached and detached form a personal computer. The hardware accessory may also be embodied as a portable computing device such as a mobile phone that may be wirelessly coupled to and decoupled from the personal computer. The passwords may be maintained in a cloud-based vault and retrieved through either the personal computer or the mobile computing device. The hardware accessory converts the password into keystrokes that are transmitted to the personal computer for automated insertion into the respective application login dialogue screens.

Password manager accessory

According to one embodiment, a method, computer system, and computer program product for tracking positions and characteristics of one or more individuals in proximity to a user to dynamically assess a threat of physiological harm to the user is provided. The present invention may include identifying, by one or more sensors integrated into one or more wearable devices on the person of a user, one or more individuals in proximity to the user; generating a dynamic threshold corresponding to each of the one or more individuals; responsive to identifying one or more characteristics of the individual, updating the dynamic threshold; and responsive to a distance between an individual of the one or more individuals and the user falling below the dynamic threshold associated with the individual, transmitting an alert to the user.

According to one embodiment, a method, computer system, and computer program product for spatially aware virtual meetings is provided. The embodiment may include establishing a virtual conference room and connections thereto by a speaking participant, an addressee participant, and a non-addressee participant. The embodiment may also include assigning the speaking participant, the addressee participant, and the non-addressee participant to positions in a virtual space. The embodiment may further include displaying a virtual output stream of the virtual space to a viewing participant on a user device display screen. The embodiment may also include determining that a speaking participant is directing a speech segment to an addressee participant. The embodiment may further include altering at least one of the visual output stream and an audio output stream for a viewing participant based at least on the positions of the speaking participant and the addressee participant.

Spatially aware virtual meetings

In an approach for identifying a user's interest in a media object and one or more personalities and presenting the user with a visual of how the media object looks on a particular personality, a processor receives a request to determine suitability of the media object for the user. A processor presents the media object to a multilabel classifier to be matched to a set of profile data of the user and a set of data of one or more personalities. A processor receives an output instruction from the multilabel classifier to combine the media object with a particular personality of the one or more personalities. A processor generates a combined media object of the media object with the particular personality using a generative adversarial neural network. A processor inserts the combined media object into an advertising template to generate an advertisement. A processor presents the advertisement to the user.

Virtual personalization based on personas

According to various embodiments, systems, computer program products, and computer implemented methods for cognitive location and navigation services for custom applications are disclosed. More specifically, the cognitive location and navigation services include, but are not limited to cognitive navigational guidance through a tourist attraction. For instance, a method includes receiving a request for cognitive navigational assistance through a tourist attraction; obtaining site-specific information about the tourist attraction from a site-specific server; determining whether a user profile describing user viewing preferences exists; and either: directing the user to navigate through the tourist attraction according to a path based on the existing user profile; or recommending a first exhibit to visit based at least in part on crowding levels at the tourist attraction and recording user behavior observed while viewing the first exhibit. Corresponding systems and computer program products are also disclosed.

Cognitive location and navigation services for custom applications

Embodiments for managing medical anomalies by one or more processors are described. Medical data associated with an individual is received. The medical data is detected by a first computing device. The first computing device includes a mobile electronic device. The received medical data is compared to stored medical data associated with the individual. Based on the comparison of the received data to the stored data, a control signal for a second computing device is caused to be generated.

Methods and systems for managing medical anomalies

According to various embodiments, systems, computer program products, and computer-implemented methods for cognitive location and navigation services for custom applications are disclosed. More specifically, the cognitive location and navigation services include, but are not limited to beacon-based communication with vehicles. For instance, a method includes: summoning a vehicle to a designated position; communicating with one or more location sensors deployed throughout a location including the designated position; determining a user has exited a building at the location based on the communication with the one or more location sensors; and transmitting a position of the user to the summoned vehicle. Notably, the position of the user is accurate to within 10 inches. Corresponding systems and computer program products are also disclosed.

According to various embodiments, systems, computer program products, and computer implemented methods for cognitive location and navigation services for custom applications are disclosed. More specifically, the cognitive location and navigation services include, but are not limited to: multilingual, point-specific communication; cognitive navigational guidance through a tourist attraction; and beacon-based communication with a vehicle are disclosed. For instance, one embodiment of multilingual, point-specific communication includes receiving a request for delivery of announcements relating to a particular event; receiving or retrieving itinerary information corresponding to the particular event and a user that submitted the request; receiving audio data from a location corresponding to the particular event based at least in part on the itinerary information; translating the audio data into a plurality of translated messages, each translated message being in a different language; and providing at least one of the translated messages to the user that submitted the request.
