Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure describe systems and methods for analyzing images captured by a mobile communications device. A server may transmit a request for a digital image to the mobile communications device. The mobile communications device may use a camera to capture a digital image in response to receipt of the request. The quality of one or more portions of the digital image may be verified. The mobile communications device may transmit the digital image to the server for further image processing and image analysis. The server may process and analyze the digital image to segment and identify particular regions of interest such as regions having printed or handwritten text. The server may extract the text from the digital image and use the extracted text to execute an automated electronic transaction.

Abstract: A system for accessing product information from embedded sensors via mobile device video analysis is disclosed.

Abstract: Security measures for tokens comprise storing security rules associated with a generated token in a memory. A processor, communicatively coupled to the memory, accesses the security rules associated with the generated token and determines whether to encrypt the generated token by applying at least a portion of the security rules to the generated token. The processor encrypts the generated token. An interface, communicatively coupled to the processor, communicates the encrypted token to a mobile device associated with a user.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products are provided for automatic activation of mobile payment mechanisms (e.g., software applications, devices/hardware and the like) on a mobile communication device in response to automated determination of the mobile payment types accepted by a merchant at which the user/consumer is located. As such, the present invention serves to automatically make the user/consumer aware of an option for mobile payment. In addition, the mobile payment transaction is made more efficient, in that, the user/consumer does not have to manually configure and/or activate the software or hardware associated with the mobile payment type.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include systems, methods, and computer-program products for providing readable indicia for healthcare codes. As such, a readable indicia may be presented at a point-of-transaction (POT) for a user to select. The system may dynamically present the readable indicia based on the user, the merchant, and the products of the transaction. The user may select the readable indicia with his/her user device. Upon selection, the system may provide the user with private viewing and selecting of alternative payment methods available to the user for that transaction. Alternative payment methods may include insurance or government programs. The system may receive authorization to apply one of the alternative payment methods to the transaction. As such, the invention provides private, yet expedited transaction capabilities using alternative payment methods at a merchant POT.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include systems, methods, and computer-program products that provide for an enhanced mobile application for assisting users at a point-of-transaction (POT). In one embodiment of the invention the POT assistance application program may determines that a user is conducting a transaction with a merchant.
