Abstract: A method for implementing a token transfer feature on an online vehicle sales platform comprising the step of providing a vehicle online sales platform. The method includes implementing a conditions for applicability of a token transfer and associated calculations for a vehicle n the online vehicle sales platform. The method includes enabling that the transfer is applicable on a same category and for all sellers and while the token is transferred, creating a new list for an order. When a token amount of new listing is smaller than equal to token amount on the previous listing, then order is immediately created. When token amount of new listing is greater than the token amount of the first order, then buyer has to pay the difference through express checkout to create the second order. The method includes enabling the buyer to transfer the token amount up-to one time only.

Abstract: A method for implementing a token transfer feature on an online vehicle sales platform comprising: implementing a vehicle benchmarking; implementing a future price calculation based on OBV Algorithm based on benchmarked vehicle; calculating the risk factor based on the following parameters: vehicle segment performance, competition space and future launches, probability of the vehicle model being discontinued, impact of policy changes on the vehicle, and performance of OEMs; utilizing the risk factor and the vehicle benchmarking to calculate a Buyback Value to be offered.

Abstract: A method for implementing a implementing an online vehicle marketplace rating system comprising: providing an online vehicle marketplace system; implementing an online vehicle marketplace rating system; providing a rating system designed to evaluate the overall rating of a vehicle on four parameters; and analyzing a vehicle and providing a performance parameter value for each of the four parameters by; obtaining and analyzing the vehicle and provide a safety parameter value, obtaining and analyzing a vehicle comfort parameter value, obtaining and analyzing a vehicle money parameter value, and obtaining and analyzing a vehicle performance parameter.

Abstract: A computerized system for distributing an estimated monetary value of a used vehicle. The system comprises a server including a pricing engine which, for a used vehicle, identifies the seller of the used vehicle and a used vehicle retailer to which to offer the used vehicle, and determines a mileage and condition of the used vehicle. The server collects used vehicle sample data for different types of used vehicles, and generates a depreciation curve for each used vehicle type based on used vehicle sales data. It then groups each sampled used vehicle type with a set of similar depreciation curves into a depreciation segment, wherein the depreciation segment comprises a group of vehicle types that present a similar depreciation pattern, and matches the used vehicle of the seller to the depreciation segment, determines a monetary value of the used vehicle, and communicates the monetary value to the seller or the retailer.

Abstract: Disclosed systems and methods include configuring behavior of a machine in a physical environment based on detected interactions with the physical environment. In some cases, an electronic identification device identifies a presence of an object in the physical environment. An attribute corresponding to the identified object is determined, the attribute identifying a characteristic of a user or group or users of the physical environment. The attribute is matched to a parameter indicating an environment device and a configuration of the environment device. In some cases, the configuration is based on historical information about interactions in the physical environment, and the user characteristic. Behavior of the environment device is modified based on the configuration.
