An augmented reality (AR) system for generating and displaying a pre-disaster Enhanced Situation Visualization (ESV) is provided. The AR system may include an ESV computing device, a user computing device operated by a user and a reference database. The user computing device may transmit a reference request message to the ESV device, the reference request message including an image and/or GPS location of a property. The ESV computing device may determine the subject of the image is the property, retrieve reference information including peril maps associated with the property from the reference database, and determine situation information specific to the subject. The reference and situation information including a loss estimate may be displayed on the user computing device to provide an ESV of the property. The ESV may be used for insurance-related activities, such as handling, adjusting, and/or generating an insurance policy, premium, and/or discount, and/or generating insurance-related recommendations.

Systems and methods for augmented reality for disaster simulation

A property analyzer device may include (1) a receiver configured to receive property identification information from a mobile device, the received property identification information including a picture of the property and/or a property location; (2) a retriever configured to retrieve property-related information from multiple property sources (such as public record databases, websites, or an internal company database) based upon the received property identification information; (3) a processor configured to consolidate the retrieved property-related information into a consolidated property-related image of the property; and (4) a transmitter configured to transmit the consolidated property-related image to the mobile device for review by a user. The mobile device may display the consolidated images that may include several images of the property taken over time (such as showing repairs or improvements made), home insurance quotes, home loan quotes, and other types of property-related or community information that home buyers or owners would find useful.

Systems and methods for analyzing property related information

An augmented reality (AR) system for generating and displaying an enhanced situation visualization (ESV) is provided. The AR system may include an ESV computing device, a user computing device operated by a user and a reference database. The user computing device may transmit a reference request message to the ESV device, the reference request message including an image representative of a current view of a user. The ESV computing device may determine a subject of the image, retrieve reference information associated with the subject from the reference database, and determine situation information specific to the subject. The reference and situation information may be displayed on the user computing device to provide an ESV of the subject. The ESV may be used for insurance-related activities, such as handling, adjusting, and/or generating homeowner's insurance claims, and/or for instructional guidance.

Systems and methods for enhanced situation visualization

A method and system for associating information regarding an object with image objects is disclosed, wherein each image object is a visual data containers including an image associated with the object and data items relating to the object. A user may interact with a graphical user interface to create, modify, and associate image objects by means of the associated images. Information regarding the objects may be associated therewith by means of the image objects, and image objects may be associated with other image objects to generate associations between information regarding the underlying objects. Information regarding other image objects or the associated image may be used to determine information regarding the object, which may be associated with the image object. In some embodiments, associating two or more image objects may associate the underlying objects for purposes of insurance policies or may generate a new insurance policy based on the image objects.

System and method of using an image object as a visual data container

Systems and methods for capturing digital image data associated with a property for an insurance quote are described. According to certain aspects, a mobile device may enable a user to capture digital image data and/or a video stream and other information of house features and characteristics that may be used to determine insurability and estimated replacement cost of the property. The mobile device may enable the user to capture the information at the property location, which may eliminate the need for a manual assessment or characterization of home features by a homeowner. A back-end server may receive the data, analyze the data to generate an insurance quote (and/or insurance application) for the property, and transmit the insurance quote (and/or application) to the mobile device for presentation to the user. The mobile device may enable the user to select terms, deductibles, limits, and/or coverages, and ultimately approve a homeowner's insurance policy.

Electronic device data capture for property insurance quotes

Methods, systems, apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable media are described for integrating the online purchase of a product with the purchase of an insurance policy providing coverage for the product. When a customer initiates the purchase of a product through an online retailer, various aspects include obtaining personal information for the customer, as well as product information for the product. Based upon this information, various aspects may include determining whether the customer is eligible to purchase insurance, and assessing a level of risk in providing a particular type of insurance coverage to the customer. Additionally, various aspects may further include determining an insurance quote based upon this level of risk and transmitting an offer to purchase the insurance policy to the customer. The customer may then purchase the product and insurance policy in one transaction such that binding insurance coverage for the product is provided at the time of purchase.

Method and system for integrating online sales of consumer products with the sale of corresponding insurance

A system for enhanced personal property replacement (i) builds a virtual inventory of personal belongings, such as by performing object recognition techniques on mobile device digital images with the customer's permission or affirmative consent; (ii) receives user preferences transmitted from their mobile device; (iii) receives a request from the user to handle an insurance claim after an insurance-related event; (iv) determines items to purchase for the user based upon the user preferences, and/or the extent of damage; and/or (v) transmits, to a retailer remote server a virtual order for the items to be delivered to the user at a temporary (hotel) or permanent (home) address. Insurance claim monies may be used to pay for the items. As a result, after an event (e.g., fire, tornado, hurricane), household or other goods may be automatically purchased and delivered to a customer to alleviate the negative impact of the event on their life.

Systems and methods for enhanced personal property replacement

A computer system for enhanced personal property replacement may be provided. The computer system may include at least one processor in communication with at least one memory device. The at least one processor may programmed to receive a plurality of user preferences transmitted from a user computer device associated with a user, receive a request from the user to cover a claim, determine a first plurality of items for the user based upon the claim and the plurality of user preferences, and/or transmit, to a retailer computer device associated with a retailer, an order for the determined first plurality of items with the retailer to be delivered to the user at an address associated with the user.
