Transaction card mode related to locating a transaction card
First Claim
1. A device, comprising:
- one or more memories; and
one or more processors, communicatively coupled to the one or more memories, to;
determine to cause a transaction card to initiate a mode associated with the transaction card,the mode being related to locating the transaction card,the mode being associated with the transaction card outputting a signal;
monitor information related to a proximity of the transaction card and the device,the transaction card and the device being associated with each other;
determine a possible location of the transaction card,the possible location being associated with a strength of the signal associated with the transaction card;
provide, for display on a user interface of the device, information associated with the strength of the signal associated with the transaction card,the information associated with the strength of the signal associated with the transaction card varying based on a direction in which the device is pointed to permit a determination of a possible direction in which the transaction card is located; and
provide, for display on the user interface of the device, a highlighted indicator pointing to a possible direction in which the transaction card is located,the highlighted indicator varying based on the direction in which the device is pointed.

Abstract
A transaction card may determine to initiate a mode associated with the transaction card. The mode may be related to locating the transaction card. The mode may be associated with outputting a first signal. The transaction card may determine a manner in which to configure the mode based on a set of parameters. The set of parameters may include a power level of the transaction card, or a strength of a second signal associated with a connection between the transaction card and a device associated with the transaction card. The transaction card may initiate the mode after configuring the mode. The transaction card may determine to terminate the mode based on an indication that the transaction card has been located.

8. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions comprising:
one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to; determine to cause a transaction card to initiate a mode associated with the transaction card based on information related to a proximity of the transaction card and a device, the transaction card and the device being associated with each other, the mode being associated with the transaction card outputting a signal; determine a possible location of the transaction card, the possible location being associated with a strength of the signal associated with the transaction card; provide, for display on a user interface of the device, information associated with the strength of the signal associated with the transaction card, the information associated with the strength of the signal associated with the transaction card varying based on a direction in which the device is pointed to permit a determination of a possible direction in which the transaction card is located; and provide, for display on the user interface of the device, a highlighted indicator pointing to a possible direction in which the transaction card is located, the highlighted indicator varying based on the direction in which the device is pointed. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A method, comprising:
-
determining, by a device, to cause a transaction card to initiate a mode associated with the transaction card based on information related to a proximity of the transaction card and the device, the transaction card and the device being associated with each other, the mode being associated with the transaction card outputting a signal; determining, by the device, a possible location of the transaction card, the possible location being associated with a strength of the signal associated with the transaction card; providing, for display on a user interface of the device, information associated with the strength of the signal associated with the transaction card, the information associated with the strength of the signal associated with the transaction card varying based on a direction in which the device is pointed to permit a determination of a possible direction in which the transaction card is located, and the information including a set of directions from a current location of the device to the possible location of the transaction card; and providing, by the device and for display on the user interface of the device, a highlighted indicator pointing to a possible direction in which the transaction card is located, the highlighted indicator varying based on the direction in which the device is pointed. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
