Publication number: 20200279498Abstract: A method and apparatus for an augmented reality simulator for professional and educational training is provided. The simulator provides a training environment spanning one or more physical locations in which one or more virtual avatars representing purely virtual objects or persons or real physical objects or persons which are located at a different physical location are projected into the physical space. The avatars are interactive with other avatars and real objects or persons and update over time or in response to actions taken by other real or virtual elements, or based on predefined instructions. Sensors and devices are used to detect the locations of and actions taken by real persons or real objects and this sensed data is used to evolve the state of the simulation and avatars based on predefined instructions and programs and update the view of all participants.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 15, 2020Publication date: September 3, 2020Applicant: SimX, Inc.Inventors: Ryan Joseph Ribeira, Karthik Venkataraman Sarma, Stanley Thomas Stadelman, JR., Srihari Kumar Namperumal, Jason Robert Ribeira, Christopher Ryan Miller

Publication number: 20190220843Abstract: A payment system may intelligently monitor text conversations on other applications or a user's email system. Users and participating merchants may enroll credit cards or other payment devices, bank accounts, etc., with the payment system. Once enrolled, a daemon/plugin of the payment system may monitor text applications, emails, or other communication means of the mobile computing device. Using Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning algorithms, the payment system may determine payment information from a text or other communication, and initiate and/or complete a payment transaction between the communicating parties. Upon confirmation, the payment system may complete the funds transfer or payment to registered users or merchants in the text communication. The payment system may also integrate with a merchant's loyalty and reward programs and use these loyalty/reward points as forms of payment.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 18, 2018Publication date: July 18, 2019Inventors: Sanjeev Kaithvas, Karthik Venkataraman, Daya Venkatesan, Ashok Babu Mundru, Chen Xu
