  • Patent number: 11379839
    Abstract: A computer system and a transaction machine, such as an automated teller machine (ATM), can provide any payor to make a payment to a payee at the transaction machine. The transaction machine provides the payor a user interface to enter a passcode that uniquely identifies the payment transaction. The passcode can be generated by a provider computing system associated with the transaction machine and provided directly to the payee or through the payor prior to the transaction. The transaction machine provides the payor a user interface to enter an amount. The transaction machine also provides the payor the ability to make a payment at the transaction machine using various modes of payment such as cash, credit card, or cryptocurrency. The transaction machine verifies that the payment matches the user selected amount, and sends a payment notification to the payor.

  • Patent number: 11334953
    Abstract: Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) may facilitate insurance-related tasks. UAVs may actively be dispatched to an area surrounding a property, and collect data related to property. A location for an inspection of a property to be conducted by a UAV may be received, and one or more images depicting a view of the location may be displayed via a user interface. Additionally, a geofence boundary may be determined based on an area corresponding to a property boundary, where the geofence boundary represents a geospatial boundary in which to limit flight of the UAV. Furthermore, a navigation route may be determined which corresponds to the geofence boundary for inspection of the property by the UAV, the navigation route having waypoints, each waypoint indicating a location for the UAV to obtain drone data. The UAV may be directed around the property using the determined navigation route.
