Transient market resource locator
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, at a computing device, an indication to locate a transient transaction resource;
responsive to the received indication, transmitting, from the computing device, a request to locate the transient transaction resource to a transaction resource facilitator; and
receiving, at the computing device, a proximate geographic location information of the transient transaction resource, the received proximate geographic location information of the transient transaction resource based, at least in part, on a geographic location information of an origination of the request and a predetermined time span corresponding to the transient transaction resource, wherein an availability of the transient transaction resource is based, at least in part, on the geographic location information of the origination of the request and/or the predetermined time span.

11. A method comprising:
-
receiving a request to locate a transient transaction resource, the request including geographic location information of an origination of the request; determining if the geographic location information is within a predetermined geographic location based, at least in part, on the transient transaction resource; if it is determined that the geographic location information is within the predetermined geographic area, determining if the received request is within a predetermined time span based, at least in part, on the transient transaction resource; and if it is determined that the received request is within the predetermined time span, transmitting a proximate geographic location information of the transient transaction resource to the origination of the request, wherein an availability of the transient transaction resource is based, at least in part, on the geographic location information of the origination of the request and/or the predetermined time span. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)

16. An apparatus comprising:
-
a user interface module; a global positioning system (GPS) module; a transmitter module; a receiver module; a display device; a processor communicatively coupled to the user interface module, the GPS module, the transmitter module, the receiver module, and the display device; and a non-transitory machine readable medium having stored therein a plurality of instructions, which, if executed by the processor, operatively enable a computing device to receive an indication to locate a transient transaction resource, responsive to the received indication, transmit a request to locate the transient transaction resource to a transaction resource facilitator, and receive a proximate geographic location of the transient transaction resource, the received proximate geographic location information of the transient transaction resource based, at least in part, on a geographic location of an origination of the request and a predetermined time span corresponding to the transaction resource, wherein an availability of the transient transaction resource is based, at least in part, on the geographic location information of the origination of the request and/or the predetermined time span. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)

26. An apparatus comprising:
-
a receiver module; a transmitter module; a processor communicatively coupled to the receiver module and the transmitter module; and a non-transitory machine readable medium having stored therein a plurality of instructions, which, if executed by the processor, operatively enable a computing device to receive a request to locate a transient transaction resource, the request including geographic location information of an origination of the request, determine if the geographic location information is within a predetermined geographic location based, at least in part, on the transient transaction resource, if it is determined that the geographic location information is within the predetermined geographic area, determine if the received request is within a predetermined time span based, at least in part, on the transient transaction resource, and if it is determined that the received request is within the predetermined time span, transmit a proximate geographic location information of the transient transaction resource to the origination of the request, wherein an availability of the transient transaction resource is based, at least in part, on the geographic location information of the origination of the request and/or the predetermined time span. - View Dependent Claims (27, 28, 29, 30)
