Abstract: A method and system for a one-time authentication interaction to conduct electronic financial transactions using a wearable smart ring device is described. In one embodiment, a method includes detecting, by a mobile device, that a wearable smart ring device is being worn by a user. The method also includes receiving, by the mobile device, authentication information associated with the user, and comparing the received authentication information with stored authentication information associated with the user. Upon determining that the received authentication information matches the stored authentication information, the wearable smart ring device is authorized to conduct electronic financial transactions. Additionally, the wearable smart ring device remains authorized to conduct electronic financial transactions as long as it is worn by the user. Once removed from the user's finger, the wearable smart ring device is de-authorized.

Abstract: A system and method for helping a user carrying a smart device to maintain safe distances from other persons during an epidemic or a pandemic. A portable smart device measures the approximate distance to persons in the vicinity of the user, and notifies the user whenever he or she is too close to other persons. The portable smart device may overlay augmented reality graphics (such as arcs, lines, text, numbers, or other graphics) over images captured by the smart device's camera, to indicate safe distances. The graphics serve to inform and/or warn the user that he or she may be getting too close to other persons.

Abstract: A user device may obtain access control data which is derived based on a test result or score of a test for assessing a risk of a user of having or developing a contagious illness. The access control data may be communicated from the user device to an access control system in response to a reading of the user device by the access control system. The access control system may permit or deny entry of the user into an area based on the access control data. In some aspects, the user device is an identity (ID) or access badge. In other aspects, the user device is a mobile user device having one or more illness risk factor assessment functions, where the test result or score is obtained based on resulting data from executing the one or more illness risk factor assessment functions.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to detecting distracted driving on a mobile device and mitigating distracted driving by determining whether a mobile device is used by a driver of a vehicle or by a passenger of the vehicle. The system can determine that the mobile device is in a vehicle and modify the functionality of the mobile device to transition the mobile device into an automobile mode. Vehicle data and/or mobile device data can be used to determine a number of individuals in the vehicle. An identity of the operator of the mobile device can be authenticated based on authentication information obtained by the mobile device. Based on the authenticated identity of the operator of the mobile device, a driving score associated with the driver can be modified, where the score indicates a number of instances of distracted driving by the driver.

Abstract: Secure cash deposit containers, such as secure cash bags or secure cash boxes equipped with an integrated bill scanner and a transmitter. The integrated bill scanner may receive and count the bills, and then store them in the secure cash deposit container. A transmitter in communication with the scanner may then transmit a report to the bank servicing the commercial establishment's cash deposit account. The bank may then automatically credit the amount reported by the scanner to the commercial establishment cash deposit account. The amount credited may be subject to further verification, for example, by a bank teller or by a bank's automated cash counting and sorting machines.

Abstract: One or more servers are provided for processing incoming service messages for customers which are account holders of accounts that are managed at least in part by a service provider. An incoming service message may be received from a user device via a network. The incoming service message may include free-form input data (e.g. free-form text data or free-form audio data). The free-form input data may be processed to determine one or more intent classifiers and/or one or more emotion classifiers using artificial intelligence, e.g. a natural language understanding function. A service department identifier may be selected based on at least the one or more intent classifiers or the one or more emotion classifiers. A message may be sent to a selected service representative identifier associated with the selected service department identifier, where the message includes an identifier for identifying information associated with the incoming service message.
