Abstract: A dispensing system including a dispensing component configured to receive a plurality of items thereon or therein, where the plurality of items are part of a single order. The system further includes a sensor configured to identify a location of each of the plurality of items on or in the component, and a controller operatively coupled to the sensor. The controller is configured to automatically track, after initial placement of the plurality of items on or in the component, the location each of the plurality of items that are repositioned on or in the component. The controller is also configured to associate each of the plurality of items with the order, both before and after repositioning. The system includes a display device operatively coupled to the controller, wherein the display device is configured to dynamically display information that conveys that the plurality of items are part of the single order.

Abstract: A vehicle transaction support system operates by: receiving vehicle source data indicating vehicles available from at least one vehicle source; filtering the vehicle source data based on vehicle filter parameters and generating filtered vehicle source data responsive thereto indicating a plurality of the vehicles; generating, based on vehicle requirements data and the filtered vehicle source data and utilizing a vehicle scoring engine having at least one artificial intelligence (AI) model trained via machine learning, filtered and scored vehicle source data that indicates scores associated with the plurality of the vehicles; receiving, via a graphical user interface, vehicle selection data corresponding to selected ones of the plurality of the vehicles; generating, in respond to the vehicle selection data, vehicle bid data corresponding to the selected ones of the plurality of the vehicles; and sending the vehicle bid data to the at least one vehicle source.

Abstract: A vehicle transaction support system operates by: generating, based on customer profile data and utilizing a vehicle recommendation engine having a first artificial intelligence model trained via machine learning, vehicle options data that indicates vehicles selected from a vehicle database; generating terms data associated with each of the vehicles selected from the vehicle database; sending the vehicle options data and terms data for display via a graphical user interface of a mobile device in a customer mode of operation of the mobile device; and communicating agent data with the mobile device in an agent mode of the mobile device, wherein the agent data is not displayed via the graphical user interface of the mobile device in the customer mode of operation.

Abstract: A dispensing system including a sensor configured to identify a position of an item on a surface of a component, a controller operatively coupled to the sensor, and a display device operatively coupled to the controller. The display device is configured to dynamically display information relating to the item. The display device is configured to display the information at a location physically associated with the item.

Abstract: Systems and methods for autonomously dispensing items. A dispensing system receives a first distributed ledger transaction that: i) identifies an item, ii) identifies a container associated with and containing the item, iii) includes a status indicator in a first state identifying the item as present in the container, and iv) includes an authorization code associated with a mobile device. The authorization code is received from the mobile device. The dispensing system creates a second distributed ledger transaction based on the first distributed ledger transaction that changes the status indicator to a second state identifying the item as authorized for dispensing. Responsive to the creation of the second distributed ledger transaction, access is autonomously provided to the item. The dispensing system creates a third distributed ledger transaction based on the second distributed ledger transaction that changes the status indicator to a third state identifying the item as dispensed.

Abstract: A vehicle transaction support system operates by: generating, based on customer prequalification data and extended bureau data and utilizing a customer grading engine having a first artificial intelligence model trained via machine learning, a customer grade that predicts a likelihood of transaction default associated with a customer; generating, based on customer profile data that includes the customer grade and other customer profile data and utilizing a vehicle recommendation engine having a second artificial intelligence model trained via machine learning, vehicle options data that indicates vehicles selected from a vehicle database; and generating, based on at least a portion of the customer profile data and the vehicle options data and utilizing a transaction recommendation engine having a third artificial intelligence model trained via machine learning, terms data associated with each of the vehicles selected from the vehicle database.
