    Abstract: A method for providing active fall prevention assistance to a user. The method includes one or more computer processors mapping a work area where a user performs a plan of tasks. The method further includes determining a safety configuration related to the user and the task. The method further includes instructing an autonomous device to attach a first tether between a first anchor point and a safety harness secured to the user. The method further includes analyzing real-time images of the work area and the user while the user performs the task. The method further includes determining that the user is at risk of falling. The method further includes responding to determining that the user is at risk of falling by instructing the autonomous device to attach a second tether between a second anchor point and the safety harness secured to the user.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, a computer system and a computer program product enhance content submissions of support chats. The method includes acquiring a support request from a user, wherein the support request includes a content submission. The content submission is selected from a group consisting of audio data, image data and text data. The method also includes determining a classification of the support request based on a request type. The method further includes obtaining a set of requirements for the support request from a server based on the determined classification. In addition, the method includes determining that the content submission does not meet the set of requirements. Lastly, the method includes generating an augmented reality inspector to assist the user in adding content to meet the set of requirements in response to the set of requirements not being met by the content submission.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method prevents physical interference between co-located users in virtual environments. The method includes identifying a first user associated with a first virtual reality (VR) system and a second user associated with a second VR system. The method also includes predicting a future movement of the first user to perform a first task in a primary virtual environment. The method further includes identifying, in response to the predicting the future movement of the first user, a first physical space needed for the first user. The method includes determining, in response to identifying the first physical space, a likely interference in a first physical location of the first user. The method also includes preventing the likely interference.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method and a computer program product for device pairing by cognitive computing. A cognitive computing system creates a knowledge corpus about the historical activities of pairing devices of a user. The cognitive computing system predicts needs of device pairing of the user, based on analysis of the historical activities. The cognitive computing system identifies devices that can be paired in a surrounding area. An augmented reality device tracks an eye direction of the user at a device, extrapolates the eye direction to create an eye focus direction of the user, obtains from the cognitive computing system an eye focus line with an arrow pointing to the device, and creates an augmented reality overlay which shows the eye focus line. The augmented reality device pairs a user currently used device and the device, upon user approval.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, a computer program product, and a computer system for dynamically creating a composition reference video to support a user activity. In response to that a user selects a reference video for performing an activity, the computer system identifies a search query of a reference video. The computer system identifies personalized parameters of the user, based on a knowledge corpus user preferences of performing activities, and the search query. The computer system identifies appropriate videos and video transcripts in an online video repository and identifies textual contents through document and text search, based on a prediction about how the user is to perform the activity. The computer system draws series of images based on the textual contents. The computer system normalizes contents from the appropriate videos and the series of images and normalizes voices in the contents from the appropriate videos.
