Abstract: In some implementations, a user device may receive one or more first advertisements from one or more first beacons. Accordingly, the user device may exchange check-in messages with a remote device based on the one or more first advertisements. The user device may track a location using at least one or more signal strengths associated with the one or more first beacons and one or more signal strengths associated with one or more second beacons. The user device may further display and update a map based on tracking the location. The user device may receive one or more second advertisements from the one or more second beacons. Accordingly, the user device may request first information associated with the one or more second beacons that is different from second information associated with one or more third beacons. The user device may further display the first information.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments may provide keys for unlocking access to a location, like a user room, a secure location, a door at an employee location, a trunk, a closet or other locked location or item, on a payment card. Examples of a payment card include but are not limited to a credit card, a debit card, a smart card, an employee identification card, etc. A secure token that acts as digital key may be uploaded to the payment card. The payment card may then be put in close proximity of a wireless reader at the lock. The wireless reader obtains the secure token and extracts the contents. If the contents are proper, the lock is unlocked. Otherwise, the lock remains locked.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating real-time resource reduction notifications are described. The system receives, for a user system, a resource consumption and a dataset during a first period of time. The system processes the dataset to determine other user systems similar to the user system. The system generates an expected resource consumption of the user system during the first period of time based on resource consumption during one or more periods of time for the similar user systems. If the resource consumption of the user system exceeds the expected resource consumption, the system determines an action to reduce resource consumption of the user system. The system receives a reduced resource consumption of the user system during a second period of time. The system generates a notification to the similar user systems indicating the executed action and an amount of reduction in resource consumption.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for using cryptographic tokens that represent real-world items to enable those items to be used in different virtual worlds (e.g., game worlds). In particular, an object retrieval system may be used to retrieve a cryptographic token that encodes parameter data for an object to be used (e.g., displayed) within a plurality of computing platforms. The object retrieval system may determine (e.g., using a cryptographic signature) that the user is allowed to use the object and may then generate a set of parameters for representing the object with the particular computing platform requesting the object. The object retrieval system may then transmit the parameters to the requesting platform. The object retrieval system may perform the same operations for requests from other platforms, such that the object retrieval system may uniquely encode the parameters for the particular platforms.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described here for porting accounts to multiple computing platforms. Blockchain technology may be used and in particular cryptographic tokens (e.g., non-fungible tokens) may be used. A cryptographic token may represent a user account and may enable usage of the cryptographic token to provide portability of the user account. An access control system may be used to perform operations described herein. The access control system may receive a request for using, at a computing platform, an account of the user. The request may include an identifier of a cryptographic token. The access control system may determine, based on the cryptographic token, that access to the user account may be permitted and the request may be fulfilled.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for authorizing limited user access to resources of other users using NFTs. A resource access system may be used to authorize access. The system may receive a first request for performing an action using a resource associated with a first user, and in response to the first request, obtain an encrypted payload from a blockchain node of a blockchain. The system may transmit a command to the second device to decrypt the encrypted payload using the second cryptography-based storage application and receive the access token and the one or more access parameters from the second device. In response to determining that metadata of the first request matches the one or more access parameters of the access token, the system may transmit a request to perform the action.

Abstract: Methods and systems for uses and/or improvements to blockchain technology. In particular, the methods and systems described herein implement a novel cryptographic resource standard that provides functionality for complex communications. The novel cryptographic resource standard allows for blockchain functions that may involve single cryptographic resource transfers or batch cryptographic resource transfers as well as on-chain batching of one or more cryptographic resources.

Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for presenting user specific information based on mobile device proximity to short-range wireless technology beacons. For example, by determining the proximity of a mobile device to a short-range wireless technology beacon, user specific information may be displayed on a user interface such that a user may have easy access to user specific information without the need to rely on their mobile device for such access, thereby conserving mobile device battery life and improving the experience of the user.

Abstract: Embodiments for cognitively identifying a propensity for obtaining white space target entities by a processor. Similarities between one or more potential target entities and current entities may be compared according to structured data and unstructured data. A propensity to engage in a transaction agreement may be determined for the one or more potential target entities according to the similarities and historical transaction agreements.
