  • Patent number: 12664575
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for improved vehicle transaction platforms. An example method may include receiving, by a vehicle transaction platform, a search request for vehicles from a user device associated with a first user account. The example method may also include receiving identifying information associated with the user account, wherein at least a portion of the identifying information is received from a third party. The example method may also include identifying, based on the identifying information, a predetermined search pattern, wherein the predetermined search pattern was generated based on a prior search request associated with a second user account and identifying information associated with the second user account.

  • Publication number: 20220156808
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and method for improved vehicle transaction platforms. An example method may include receiving, by a vehicle transaction platform comprising an inventory of vehicles for purchase and from a device associated with a first user accessing the vehicle transaction platform, digital identity information associated with the first user, wherein the digital identity information includes identifying information associated with the device. The method may also include determining the digital identity information matches a record of financial data associated with the first user. The method may also include determining, based on the record of financial data, transaction pricing data for a first vehicle, the transaction pricing data including a total purchase price and a periodic payment amount. The method may also include sending, to the device, a user interface configured to present the vehicle and transaction pricing.

  • Publication number: 20070209426
    Abstract: A system and method for determining “real time” air leakage from a duct involves an airflow meter for taking airflow measurements at the inlet and at the outlet of the duct. Also included is a base fan that operates in three different modes to simultaneously vary an enclosure pressure at the inlet and outlet. This is done while a duct fan, inside the duct, is operated to continuously move air through the duct. A comparison of airflow measurements at the inlet, or at the outlet, under the three base fan operational modes will respectively identify whether leaks are present in the duct, upstream or downstream from the duct fan.
