Publication number: 20250104518Abstract: Systems and methods for establishing and achieving objectives determine that a user has accessed, via a user device, a gaming profile associated with an entity. The system transmits to the user device a digital communication, wherein the digital communication includes queries for determining a preferred objective of the user. After receiving one or more user inputs from the user device in response to the queries, the system derives the user's preferred objective, which is stored in an entity data source. Through the user device, the system determines that the user has accessed the gaming profile of the gaming software application associated with the entity. The system monitors the gaming profile of the user for completion of the one or more gaming actions and allocates to the gaming profile remuneration in an amount correlated to the user's preferred objective.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2023Publication date: March 27, 2025Applicant: Truist BankInventors: Michael Taylor John, Noah Jeffrey Joyce

Publication number: 20250104517Abstract: Systems and methods for establishing and achieving objectives that benefit a user and an entity include at least one processor that determines that a user has created, via a user device, a gaming profile associated with an entity. The processor displays one or more user objectives via the user device and receives a user selection of at least one user objective from the one or more user objectives. A gaming action is created that is capable of being performed via the user device that would permit a user to achieve the at least one user device. After receiving an indication from the user device that the user has achieved the at least one user device, a digital remuneration is transmitted to the user's gaming profile in an amount correlated to the at least one user objective achieved by the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2023Publication date: March 27, 2025Applicant: Truist BankInventors: Michael Taylor John, Noah Jeffrey Joyce

Publication number: 20250099857Abstract: Systems and methods for achieving objectives include receiving, via a user device, user input requesting access to a gaming profile, receiving entity data from the user's gaming profile, collecting entity data from a plurality of user profiles associated with an entity, and extracting resource data from the entity data for the user and the plurality of users. In response to extracting the resource data, the system uses a machine learning dataset to predict an objective for the user. Based on the predicted objective, the system determines gaming actions capable of being performed via the user device and associated with the gaming profile that would further the objective. The system assigns a remuneration amount to each gaming action, monitors the gaming profile for completion of the gaming actions, and allocates to the gaming profile remuneration in the amount assigned to the gaming actions completed by the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2023Publication date: March 27, 2025Applicant: Truist BankInventors: Michael Taylor John, Noah Jeffrey Joyce

Publication number: 20250083054Abstract: Systems and methods determine that a user has initiated, via a user device, a gaming profile associated with an entity and access an entity data source storing user data corresponding to a user profile of the user, the user data including information about current user resources. Based in part on the current user resources, entity aim(s) associated with the user are derived that would benefit the entity, and gaming action(s) capable of being performed via the user device and associated with the gaming profile that would further the entity aim(s) are determined. Based in part on the entity aim(s), a weighted value is calculated and assigned to each of the gaming action(s). The gaming profile of the user is monitored for completion of the gaming action(s), and remuneration is allocated to the gaming profile in an amount correlated with the weighted value assigned to the completed gaming action(s).Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2023Publication date: March 13, 2025Applicant: Truist BankInventors: Michael Taylor John, Noah Jeffrey Joyce

Publication number: 20250083056Abstract: Systems and methods include computer store(s) that include communicative data, for each electronic message, defining a plurality of communicative elements and user resource data, for each user, defining variables associated with user resources that correspond to the user(s). Each electronic message is associated with entity aim(s) of an entity and the user(s) each include account(s) that include the user resources. In addition, processor(s) associated with the entity and in communication with the computer store are programmed to derive, based at least in part on the user resource data, user-specific aim(s) from the entity aim(s) that would benefit the entity and associated gaming action(s) directed to the user-specific aim(s) that are capable of being performed by the user via an interactive gaming application associated with the entity. Based at least in part on the communicative data, electronic message(s) are identified that would further aim(s) of the user-specific aim(s) and transmitted.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2023Publication date: March 13, 2025Applicant: Truist BankInventors: Michael Taylor John, Noah Jeffrey Joyce

Patent number: 9740178Abstract: A fault tolerant controller system includes a first controller and a second controller. One of the first and second controllers designated as a primary controller for generating control signals intended to control actuation devices on a vehicle under non-fault operating conditions, and the other of the first and second controllers designated as a secondary controller generating control signals intended to control actuation devices on the vehicle. The actuation devices are responsive only to the designated primary controller. An error is detected in the primary controller and a message is transmitted from the faulty controller to the non-faulty controller identifying the error. The non-faulty controller is subsequently designated as the primary controller. The control signals including an identifier that identifies the non-faulty controller as the designated primary controller. In response to detecting the error, the faulty controller is reset to operate in a safe operating mode as the secondary controller.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2013Date of Patent: August 22, 2017Assignee: GM Global Technology Operations LLCInventors: Rami I. Debouk, Stephen M. Baker, Jeffrey Joyce

Patent number: 9244460Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an automated system for use in connection with longitudinal deceleration, longitudinal acceleration, and lateral acceleration functions. The system includes an interface receiving signals from and transmitting signals to a controller. The system also includes a safety kernel system comprising safety kernel software and a set of safety rules. Also disclosed are methods for use in a motion control system in connection with vehicle deceleration, acceleration, and lateral acceleration. The methods in some cases include receiving an initial request into a safety kernel software and determining whether the safety kernel software has received an override. The methods can also include detecting a violation of any primary safeguards defined by the safety kernel software, detecting a violation within a set of secondary safeguards defined by the safety kernel software, and adjusting the initial request to a modified level; and transmitting the modified level to an actuator.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2013Date of Patent: January 26, 2016Assignee: GM Global Technology Operations LLCInventors: Rami I.
