A computer implemented method, system and product to predict an incremental degradation of a battery of a transportation vehicle while traveling on a route using a number of battery degradation parameters and a current condition of the battery as inputs in an artificial intelligence enabled system trained using historical battery degradation parameters. An equivalent carbon footprint is calculated based on the incremental degradation of the battery of the transportation vehicle. An equivalent carbon footprint tax is calculated based on the equivalent carbon footprint. The equivalent carbon footprint tax is assessed against the transportation vehicle.

A computer-implemented method according to one embodiment includes displaying an avatar associated with a second user on an augmented reality (AR) lens of a first communication device, in response to receiving, on the first communication device worn by a first user, a notification from a second communication device of the second user. The first user is monitored for a predetermined gesture. In response to a determination that the first user performs a first predetermined gesture, an action associated with the first predetermined gesture is performed by the first communication device. The method further includes outputting a response associated with the first predetermined gesture. The response indicates an availability of the first user to communicate with the second user.

In an approach to automated protection of delivered packages, a computer receives information associated with a package delivery. A computer determines a recipient is not present for the package delivery. A computer predicts a time of arrival of the recipient. A computer determines a duration of time prior to the arrival of the recipient exceeds a pre-defined threshold. A computer determines one or more environmental conditions of an area surrounding a delivery location. A computer determines at least one of the one or more environmental conditions indicates a need for an ameliorative action associated with the package delivery. A computer determines one or more ameliorative actions. A computer instructs a delivery resource to perform the one or more ameliorative actions. A computer instructs the delivery resource to deliver the package.

Pairing of multiple devices is initiated using a computer in an artificial intelligence (AI) ecosystem. A command is received at a computer to perform a user activity at a location which includes pairing a user device to a selectable device at the location. The context of the command is analyzed including a historical corpus regarding previous pairings and connection preferences. A device at the location is selected based on the analysis and the determining of the user activity. Pairing is automatically initiated for the user device to the selected device at the location based on the analysis of the context of the command. The automatic initiation includes adjusting settings on the user device based on the analysis of the context of the command. The user device is automatically paired to the selected device at the location to perform the user activity.

A contact lens for application to a human eyeball capable of emitting ultrasonic pressure waves from a plurality of piezoelectric transducers to mitigate the effects of airborne eye irritants and infectious microorganisms. The piezoelectric transducers converts mechanical energy applied upon the contact lens from the eyelid as the eyelid blinks and/or winks into electrical energy to be used for emitting ultrasonic pressure waves from the piezoelectric transducers. The ultrasonic pressure waves destroy airborne microorganisms near the contact lens. A photodiode onboard the contact lens indicates when the eyelid is not closed in order to limit or prevent emission of ultrasonic pressure waves from the piezoelectric transducers while the eyelid is closed. An antenna onboard the contact lens receives information from augmented reality glasses or other computing devices.

In an approach to controlling voice command execution via boundary creation, one or more computer processors determine one or more devices included in an Internet of Things platform. One or more computer processors receive, from a user, an indication of a boundary around two or more devices of the one or more devices. One or more computer processors create a boundary around the two or more devices of the one or more devices. One or more computer processors receive a voice command from the user associated with the two or more devices of the one or more devices. One or more computer processors transmit the voice command to the two or more devices of the one or more devices within the boundary.

Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for rendering information in a gaze tracking device on controllable devices in a field of view to remotely control. A determination is made of a field of view from the gaze tracking device of a user based on a user position. Devices are determined in the field of view the user is capable of remotely controlling to render in the gaze tracking device. An augmented reality representation of information on the determined devices is rendered in a view of the gaze tracking device. User controls are received to remotely control a target device comprising one of the determined devices for which information is rendered in the gaze tracking device. The received user controls are transmitted to the target device to control the target device.

A method comprises displaying a plurality of items to a user on a first page on a display screen of an electronic device. Each item of the plurality of items displayed on the first page is classified according to whether an item is of interest to the user viewing the display screen. A correlation factor between the user and each item classified as of interest to the user is determined. The method also includes, for at least the first one of the plurality of items determined to have a correlation factor above a predetermined threshold, identifying detailed information about a first one of the plurality of items. The identified detailed information about a first one of the plurality of items is automatically displayed. The identified detailed information is displayed without receiving an input indicating a selection of a first one of the plurality of items from a hand-operated input device.
