Methods and systems are provided. One method includes processing operations to share electronic keys (e-keys). The method includes receiving a request to share an electronic key (e-key) of a vehicle with a recipient device. The request to share the e-key is initiated by sending a message to the recipient device using a sharing device. The method includes processing the request to validate the request to share the e-key, as received from the sharing device having associated therewith a registered owner e-key. Processing the request includes generating the e-key securely by the sharing device and registering the e-key that was generated with a server associated with a manufacturer of the vehicle. The method includes enabling the e-key for use on the vehicle by the recipient device responsive to said processing of the request. The request to share the e-key includes enabling a setting to apply a privilege level for use of the vehicle via the e-key. The privilege level provides one or more conditions of use of the vehicle via the e-key.

A Thing Machine is provided having a processor, non-transitory memory, non-transitory computer readable media, and performable machine code P(TM). The P(TM) is comprised of a first set of performable machine code actions, having one or more performable machine code P(TM(i)) action, wherein each performable machine code P(TM(i)) action is configured as an implementation of an algorithmic procedure of a model, wherein a first P(TM(i)) provides an action of self-configuring a first vocabulary of Things in said non-transitory memory of the Thing Machine, said Things representative of Things that said processor can perform as actions, and the set of Things an action can act upon, and wherein at least one P(TM(i)) machine code action is performed to configure a second vocabulary of Things in the non-transitory memory of the Thing Machine representative of a core vocabulary through which an application can be provided.

A system for blockchain-based unique identifiers and decentralized payments including a first computerized system that includes a unique identifier, a second computerized system including a gateway device that can communicate with a blockchain network, generate a transaction to transfer a token value responsive to receiving the unique identifier and synchronize the generated transaction to the blockchain network. One of the first computerized system and the second computerized system is installed in a vehicle and the other is installed in a fixed structure.

A method of operating an Internet of Things (IoT) device, the IoT device capable of communicating with a third-party system in order to perform an autonomous task subject to authorisation by an IoT authorisation device, the method comprising: sending operating parameters relating to the autonomous task to a user for approval; receiving user-approved operating parameters for the autonomous task; configuring the IoT device to perform the autonomous task within the user approved operating parameters; registering the user approved operating parameters with the IoT device management server to enable the IoT authorisation device to check that the IoT device is operating within the user-approved operating parameters when it performs an autonomous task with the third-party system.

A vehicle diagnostic system and method utilizing a plurality of diagnostic data corpuses. A first corpus comprises conventional and well-known diagnostic data useful in a broad range of common service tasks. A second corpus comprises less well-known diagnostic data useful in less common service tasks. One or more specialty corpuses may comprise obscure, protected, or emerging diagnostic data for the last-common tasks specific to particular manufacturers of the vehicle or its components. The second corpus and one or more specialty corpuses may offer access only to users that have acquired sufficient authorization.

Child/family support payments are made on a multilayered consortium ledger network using blockchain, IoT, and other technologies to expedite the process and disbursement of child/family support payments. The multilayered consortium ledger network may cater to local and/or global child support agencies and/or local and global Parties/Parents/family members who elect to send child/family support payments to their family(ies) outside the traditional child support agencies/district attorney offices. The plurality of technologies used support payments made/received using, but not limited to, domestic/foreign fiat, cryptocurrency, tokens, an/or native tokens.

Systems and methods for providing services to smart devices connected in an Internet of things (IoT) platform. It detects the user and connected registered smart devices in it's vicinity, authenticates them, and receives and processes various requests from them. The user may also provide inputs in natural language and the invention maps context associated with the user utterance to an intent to utilize the one or more services. It may also generate one or more customized responses for one or more outlier requests based on historical data stored in the database. It may automatically processes payment pertaining to one or more services subscribed by the user, wherein information specific to the payment is obtained based on the configuration preferences stored in a database and the one or more services being analyzed by the Process Orchestration Layer module.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to an IoT (Internet of Things) enabled device that initiates online or offline payment requests. In some arrangements, the IoT payment device may be managed through a central dashboard available via a stationary computing device or mobile device. In an embodiment, an IoT payment device may provide real-time updates that include data such as device function, alerts on maintenance needs, and direct contact with the service provider for any requests related to the IoT devices.

Systems and methods for artificial intelligence (AI)-based systems and methods for conditional electronic processing are provided. An example method includes receiving real time data from one or more data sources associated with one or more connected smart devices; continuously evaluating the real time data to determine whether the one or more transaction conditions is met; upon determining that the one or more transaction conditions has been met, utilizing prioritized parameters to determine to which users an alert of a transaction request is broadcast; broadcasting the alert of the transaction request via a user application; transmitting, via a push notification gateway, a push notification to the user application on a user device; and establishing, via a network, a secure connection between the user device and an AI engine for executing the transaction request.

Disclosed are methods and systems for associating payment card credentials with a companion application. In an embodiment, a consumer's mobile device processor receives an instruction to launch a companion application, displays a companion application user interface, and receives selection of an option to obtain payment card credentials from at least one wallet application. The process also includes displaying a list of payment card accounts associated with the selected wallet application for association with the companion application, receiving a selection of at least one payment card account, transmitting payment account credentials of the selected payment account to a wallet server computer, receiving a companion token representing a digitization of the selected payment card account from the wallet server computer, and associating the companion token with the companion application.
