  • Patent number: 11263395
    Abstract: A system and method for document transformation and compliance are provided. Document templates are maintained and each template includes data fields each associated with a data field identifier. Data values are received in one or more of the data fields of at least one document template. The data values are associated with the data fields into which the data values are received via the data field identifiers for those data fields. A property address is received and a set of compliance rules is identified. A subset of the document templates are retrieved as active documents for a transaction of the property based on the identified rules. The active documents are populated with those data fields that are associated with the linked data values via the data field identifiers. Compliance checking of the populated data values in the active documents is performed using a compliance rule set.

  • Publication number: 20220027345
    Abstract: A method for listing document transformation and recordation is provided. Documents relating to a real estate listing are identified and each document includes data fields associated with data field identifiers. A data value is received from a user in at least one of the data fields. A data model includes the data values received from the user and the data field identifiers of the data fields for which the data values are received is generated. The data fields associated with data field identifiers that match the data field identifiers of the data fields in which the data values are received are identified and populated with the data values. One or more correctness rules to be applied to the populated data fields of the documents are identified and applied to the documents by verifying that the data values populating the data fields are verified by one or more authoritative sources.

  • Patent number: 11229846
    Abstract: A shared virtual experience is provided to players of a location-based game. The virtual location of a player in the game is based on the real world location of the player's client device. If a player's location in the game is within an interaction distance of a virtual element, in indication that a shared virtual experience is available may be provided. Player input is received requesting participation in the shared virtual experience and the player is added to a lobby including a specified start time. At the specified time, the shared virtual experience begins and includes interaction with other players who were in the lobby. An update to game data is sent based on an outcome of the shared virtual experience.

  • Patent number: 11227350
    Abstract: A single-tier blockchain-based method for document transformation and accountability via different node types is provided. Document templates relating to a transfer of real property are maintained. Each template includes form elements each associated with a data field identifier. A subset of the document templates are collected as transaction documents for a transaction of a real property transfer. The form elements of the transaction documents are populated with received data values via the data field identifiers of the form elements. Compliance checking is performed on the populated data values of the transaction documents. A cryptographic hash of the transaction documents is provided to a network of nodes, which includes nodes that store different types of data related to the transaction documents. The cryptographic hash of the transaction documents is committed to a blockchain stored by one or more of the nodes in the network.

  • Patent number: 10912989
    Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting and preventing cheating in a location-based game are provided. In particular, a server-side statistical cheat detection algorithm can be implemented upon receiving a player request to perform a game action. A given dataset describing the respective times and locations of previous game events performed by the player can be analyzed to determine a probability that such game events represent legitimate gameplay. The determined probability can affect whether the player-requested game action is effectuated or can influence a number of points awarded for completion of the game action. An example system includes a host server and a client device in communication over a network.

  • Publication number: 20200298126
    Abstract: Systems and methods for linking real world activity, such as real world commercial activity or real world data collection activity, with a location-based parallel reality game are provided. In particular, a game server hosting a parallel reality game can modify, update, or add to game data stored in a game database associated with the parallel reality game to include certain game features in the parallel reality game linked with real world activity in the real world. The game features can be linked with activities in the real world such that player actions associated with the game features in the virtual world can lead to or encourage activity in the real world, such as commercial activity and/or data collection activity in the real world. A one-time password may be used to validate a player's location in the real world and to enable controlled access to game features in the virtual world.
