  • Patent number: 12118526
    Abstract: An ATM system includes a back-end server, an ATM central processing unit (ATM CPU) that receives information relating to the ATM system and a mobile computer. The mobile computer provides a CPU (MC CPU) and a keypad. The mobile computer may also provide a touch screen configured to display an initial ATM display. The ATM system also includes an interface system for interfacing between the ATM CPU and MC CPU. The back-end server formats and transmits to the ATM an API call. The API call requests a location of the user, ATM device information, and identification information of the user. The mobile computer is configured to respond to the API call by providing the location, the ATM device information, and the identification information of the user to the back-end server.

  • Publication number: 20240243926
    Abstract: A system is provided for a secure modular cloud-enabled resource exchange apparatus. In particular, the resource exchange apparatus may comprise a security box operatively coupled to one or more modular components, which may include computing components or devices and/or peripherals. The components of the resource exchange apparatus may be secured using security certificates and/or tokens associated with the input and/or output ports of each component. The computing device within the resource exchange apparatus may be communicatively coupled with a cloud server, from which the computing device may retrieve security certificates, configuration parameters, and/or the like. Upon detecting that a component has invalid certificate, the system may automatically disconnect and block the component. In this way, the system may ensure that only authorized devices may be used within the resource exchange apparatus.

  • Patent number: 11337144
    Abstract: Arrangements for dynamic customized experience generate and control are provided. In some examples, a signal emitted from a computing device may be detected. A location of the computing device may be determined or received. A user associated with the computing device may be identified and user data may be requested from one or more computing systems. The received location data and user data may be analyzed using machine learning to generate a user prediction. The user prediction may include a particular function, preferred method or requirements for authentication to another computing device, such as a self-service kiosk, a preferred layout or arrangement for data provided, and the like. Based on the generated user prediction, a customized user experience output may be generated and transmitted to a computing device (e.g., self-service kiosk, user computing device, or the like) for display to the user.

  • Patent number: 11250680
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to utilizing a high generation cellular network for identifying devices associated with unauthorized activities and notifying enterprise facilities. A computing platform may collect device information for a plurality of user devices at a first location. Then, the computing platform may receive, from a first device at the first location, a message related to a first activity in a vicinity of the first location. Then, the computing platform may identify a sub-plurality of the plurality of user devices, wherein the sub-plurality of user devices are located at the first location at a time of occurrence of the first activity. Then, the computing platform may generate an alert notification comprising information related to the first activity and device information for the sub-plurality of user devices. Subsequently, the computing platform may send the alert notification to a collection of devices at a plurality of locations.

  • Patent number: 11238180
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods are provided for enabling a restricted multiple-application user experience via single-application (SA) modes. A plurality of SA applications on a computer device may be configured with SA modes. The SA mode of a running SA application may prevent all other applications from running. Multiple SA applications may be linked, enabling a user to navigate between the linked applications while being restricted by each SA application's SA mode. A link may involve a transfer event that deactivates the SA mode of a first SA application and exits the first SA application. A second SA application is then called, whereupon the SA mode of the second SA application is activated. One SA application may be configured as a dashboard application. The dashboard application may include a password dependent escape event. The escape event may deactivate the SA mode of the dashboard application and exit the restricted multiple-application experience.

  • Patent number: 10922911
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a system for the use of a collapsible and deployable interactive structure. An interactive structure that is collapsible and deployable is provided in an outdoor or interior location. The interactive structure includes at least a door with a locking mechanism, an interior display, and a physical presence sensor, and may include ceiling tiles made of melt-away material, external displays, and an external bench that houses electrical components. Communication with a user is initiated, and information about the user is obtained for authentication and identification purposes. The user is authenticated, thereby unlocking the door to allow the user to enter the interactive structure. Once the user is inside, the interior display is activated to allow an underlying system to communicate with the user to determine a desired action for with the user. The interior display and underlying system facilitate the performance of the desired action.
