Embodiments of the present technology are directed at features and functionalities of a VR/AR enabled digital audio workstation. The disclosed audio workstation can be configured to allow users to record, produce, mix, and edit audio in virtual 3D space based on detecting and manipulating human gestures in a virtual reality environment. The audio can relate to music, voice, background noise, speeches, background noise, one or more musical instruments, special effects music, electronic humming or noise from electrical/mechanical equipment, or any other type of audio.

In a reception system, when a user is identified by a terminal device, a menu set in accordance with user information of the identified user is displayed on a display of the terminal device. This displays a user interface including a menu that is easy for the user to perform an input operation, whereby the user can easily perform the input operation for a vehicle dispatch reservation.

A tour group member gathering device includes a processing unit, an interface unit, a communication unit, and a map unit. The processing unit is connected to all units and controls all units accordingly. When the processing unit receives tour group member location information from the communication unit, the processing unit marks a current location and a tour group member location on map information generated by the map unit according to current location information and the tour group member location information. When marked event information is generated by the interface unit, the processing unit also generates a marked event location and a marked event message on the map information according to the marked event information. As the map information, the marked event information and the current location are displayed through the interface unit, a tour group member is able to effectively locate and communicate with other members of the tour group.

Disclosed is a system for managing content generated by bots for presentation to a user in association with a chat application. The system receives content items generated by bots monitoring a chat application for display to a user at a user interface (UI) of the chat application. The system provides input based on the received one or more content items and associated contextual information to a trained machine learning (ML) model, and receives, from the trained ML model, for each of the content items, at least one score value based on at least one predicted user response associated with potentially displaying the content item to the user at the UI. The system selects a subset of content items from the received content items based on the received score values and causes a display of this selected subset of content items in addition to a display of content generated by the chat application.

A system and method for assisting an individual to plan a trip, and the system can act as a travel companion to guide the individual on the trip. The system includes an AI module that can learn travel preferences of the individual. An aggregation module can get travel-related data from third party servers and databases and uses an AI model generated by the AI module to analyze the data, presenting relevant information to the individual. A planning module can act as a travel companion by knowing current location of the individual and present timely information to the individual.

Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for estimating downtime and recovery time after a disaster. One method includes an operation for calculating component fragility functions for components of a facility that are vulnerable to damage after a disaster. Further, the method includes calculating component recovery functions for the components of the facility. The component recovery functions indicate a probability of recovery after a disaster over time. The method further includes operations for calculating a facility fragility function and a facility recovery function based on the component fragility functions and the component recovery functions, and for determining a downtime for the facility for a given intensity associated with the disaster. Further, the method includes an operation for causing presentation of the downtime for the facility on a user interface (UI).
