  • Publication number: 20220358473
    Abstract: A method and system is provided for processing a remittance using a recipient alias. The method includes receiving, by a server computer associated with a processing network from an authenticating entity, transaction data for a transfer request. The transaction data includes a transfer amount and a recipient alias of a recipient. The method further includes querying a database using the recipient alias; holding the transfer request for a predetermined amount of time upon determining that the recipient alias is missing from the database; identifying a recipient account identifier in the database associated with the recipient alias during the predetermined amount of time; generating a transfer request message including at least the recipient account identifier and the transfer amount; and transmitting the transfer request message to an issuer computer of an issuer of the recipient account identifier, wherein the issuer notifies the recipient of the transfer amount.

  • Publication number: 20210365942
    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed. The method comprises receiving, by a server computer from a first user device, transfer data regarding a receiver operating a second user device. The server computer can transmit a verification request message to a wallet aggregator computer. The server computer can then receive a verification response message from the wallet aggregator, the verification response message comprising an account identifier of the receiver. The server computer can then transmit a confirmation request message to the first user device and receive a confirmation response message. The server computer can then send a transaction message (e.g., an OCT message) comprising the receivers account identifier.

  • Publication number: 20190035289
    Abstract: Described are systems, methods, and computer readable medium for a drone navigation system. Exemplary embodiments provide a drone with an imaging device and a computing device in communication with the drone. The computing device receives a selection of a CAD blueprint that includes measurements of an interior portion of a building, and receives a start point and an end point on the blueprint. The computing device analyzes the blueprint and generates a route from the start point to the end point, and determines a first set of instructions in terms of distance and degrees to navigate the generated route. The computing device processes the first set of instructions to generate a second set of instructions in terms of yaw, pitch and roll. The second set of instructions are exported to the drone to cause the drone to navigate the generated route in the building.

  • Publication number: 20120115953
    Abstract: A dermatologic peel comprising alpha hydroxyl acid and metal hydroxide nanocomplexes as neutralizing agents to continually reduce the activity of the system when the acid and neutralizer components are mixed. For example, a 30% glycolic acid gel mixed with a fluidized magaldrate neutralizer can be applied to the skin and will self-neutralize to a skin-compatible pH within a few minutes, effectively exfoliating the skin without a separate neutralization step. The peel is advantageously applied from a two-component system that mixes the components.

  • Publication number: 20050140184
    Abstract: A furniture system particularly adapted for informal collaboration and presentations includes lounge seating units for team members and a podium seating unit for a seated presenter. An information display panel is attached to a rear of the podium seating unit and extends vertically with its front surface being reachable over a back of the podium seating unit. The back terminates below a presenter's lumbar, but is deep enough to discourage the presenter from leaning rearwardly against the screen. By this arrangement, the seated presenter maintains level eye contact with group members in an informal setting while discussing and pointing to information. Accessories are provided to enhance use of the system, such as a paper-and-drink tray for resting on the seat cushion, an erasable board attachable to the screen, bridge tables positionable between seating units, and table-attached screens for promoting privacy.
