Publication number: 20240127241Abstract: Systems, computer program products, and methods are described herein for electronic resource transfer authentication via a user characteristic data verification engine. The system receives a request to transfer electronic resources from a first endpoint device of a merchant. The system then identifies a resource vehicle owner associated with the electronic resource transfer, identifies at least one second endpoint device, then transmits a request for verification from the entity to the at least one second endpoint device, utilizing an application programming interface. The user characteristic feedback hardware of the at least one second endpoint device collects identifier data from the user of the at least one second endpoint device, and a user characteristic data verification engine is initiated and thereafter determines a binary identification output. An entirety of the electronic resources are distributed to the merchant based on the binary identification output.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 12, 2022Publication date: April 18, 2024Applicant: BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATIONInventors: Christopher Daniel Birch, Sophie Morgan Danielpour, Susan R.

Publication number: 20180182046Abstract: A user device may transmit a request for electricity via a wire to a smart device, where the request includes the universal unique identifier (UUID) of the user device. Upon the reception of the UUID, the smart device may enable an electricity flow to the user device. The smart device may further measure the electricity amount of the electricity flow enabled to the user device based on the UUID. Based on the UUID, the smart device may measure the electricity amount enabled to a specific user device. Consequently, the calculation of electricity cost may be implemented for a specific user device. In some embodiments, the smart device may calculate the electricity cost for different user devices independently. Therefore, the calculation of electricity cost may be more accurate and smart.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 28, 2016Publication date: June 28, 2018Applicant: Futurewei Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Jiafeng ZHU, Stephen Morgan
