Patent number: 12177319Abstract: Implementations selectively message member account data to client applications to reduce server load. When a monitored load on cloud servers meets a criteria, a hold status may be triggered. During the hold status, member accounts may be monitored and client applications may be transmitted push messages, for example when a change is detected in a member's monitored account. The push messages can contain the detected changes, such as a posted transaction that triggered the message. Implementations of the client application can be configured to display local data (stored from the push messages) during the hold status in response to a member's request to access/view their account. Because server to client communication is limited to messages that contain member account changes, an overall server load can be reduced.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 2023Date of Patent: December 24, 2024Assignee: United Services Automobile Association (USAA)Inventors: Oscar Roberto Tijerina, Noe Alberto Martinez, Huihui Wu, Steven Michael Bernstein, Nickolaus Wayne O'Neal

Patent number: 12093932Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to techniques to simulate conditions while progressing towards a goal state using token conversions. Tokens can be assets associated with a defined goal and can be implemented to segment accounts for a defined purpose and to improve user planning. An account can be segmented by converting a portion of the user's account balance to tokens to progress towards the goal. In some implementations, a simulation can generate a target token conversion schedule that achieves a target number of tokens at a target date. However, user behavior can change the observed token amounts and cause deviations from the schedule. The simulations can alter the token conversion schedule and arrive at a new target date for the target number of tokens. In some implementations, automated agents and machine learning components can be used to implement the token tracking and simulations.Type: GrantFiled: August 21, 2023Date of Patent: September 17, 2024Assignee: United Services Automobile Association (USAA)Inventors: Noe Alberto Martinez, Huihui Wu, Steven Michael Bernstein, Nickolaus Wayne O'Neal

Patent number: 11955028Abstract: An environment-transforming system transforms a user's environmental information in ways that allow the user to better perceive her environment. For example, the system transforms some aspects of a visual scene into a sound space for a visually impaired user. Once the user learns to interpret the sound space, she avoids walking into an object because a sound cue tells her that the object is in her near environment and roughly where it is. Various types of transformations are possible depending upon the user's needs and preferences. As all people are different, each user has a personalized profile that directs the transformation process. More generally, the environment to be transformed may include aspects of artificial or enhanced reality. The transformed environmental information can be presented to the user in a number of ways, such as in haptic feedback, as directional audio, through oral stimulation, or through modified visual display.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2022Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: United Services Automobile Association (USAA)Inventors: Justin Royell Nash, Ivan Ortiz, Austin Ray Keeton, Subhalakshmi Selvam, Fang Yuan Gonzalez, Huihui Wu, Salvador Adrian Bretado

Patent number: 11954194Abstract: Embodiments described herein disclose methods and systems for encryption and decryption of data. In some implementations, an encryption and decryption system can protect private information of a user in documents with an artificial reality device. The encryption and decryption system can determine the portion of a document containing private information and encrypt that portion of the document. In some implementations, the encryption and decryption system can receive a document and identify the protected (e.g., encrypted) portion of the document. In some cases, the protected portion of the document can contain a security token that the encryption and decryption system can extract. The system can compare the security token to an authentication token associated with the user and determine whether the security and authentication token match. If the tokens match, the system can decrypt the protected portion of the document and display the decrypted data as a virtual object.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2021Date of Patent: April 9, 2024Assignee: United Services Automobile Association (USAA)Inventor: Huihui Wu
