Implementations of various methods and systems in a social network and reality game which includes reality, virtual reality and mixed reality to create a network of users that are rewarded for considering the real world economic impact of economic choices on the global economy rather than the isolated economic impact of choices on the local or national economy. The global economic network and game will provide implementations of various methods of incentives in various sub-categories of the real world economy that will allow users economic advancement in the economic network community for making choices that provide a higher level of economic utility for the global network economy. Implementations of methods will occur in various modules considering, but not limited to transportation, freight, housing, education, agriculture, services, automobiles, commodities, banking, mining, energy, clothing, consumer goods, healthcare and technology. The network of users will be directly connected by an implementation of a system that allows users in one part of the network to see how their choices affect both their part of the network as well as other parts of the network. The implementation of the system will implement various methods that will reward behavior that improves the overall global network of users and their associated connectivity, not just the local network or national network of users. The claimed subject matter is not limited to the following example to solve noted disadvantages of the current system: Network users or game players of the methods will be rewarded to become “global citizens” that learn by way of example a choice to reduce fuel consumption in America by ride sharing in the network would build a water well for network users in Africa. The user reward will allow the user to actually participate virtually or physically in a team of users that would build the water well for the network user community in Africa with the reward funding. The network or game user would actually be involved in the real world charity investment project and the database tracks the project in the context of the real world and the augmented, mixed and virtual reality.
The following descriptions and examples are not admitted to be prior art by virtue of their inclusion within this section.
The current economic system and global network generally assumes that the economic choice with the highest level of utility and highest level of efficiency is one governed by acting in self-interest with competition. Modern economic game theory suggests that the former assumption can be improved by acting in self interest in an atmosphere of competition but by also considering the economic outcome for the group as well as self-interest. Most participants in the current economic system simply do not know how their choices affect others in the system, especially that choices in the developed world may affect disproportionately the outcomes for those in the undeveloped world. The current system is not linked and therefore sub-optimal economic outcomes are achieved because there are limited governing mechanisms to consider the global group outcome. One implementation of this global network of users and game players may have a system that will reward economic choices in one domain that improve both their domain and the domain of other users in the system. The implementation of this system will link and bridge the global user base and further, the implementation of the system will introduce competition to sharing in a way that does not make competition and sharing mutually exclusive or independent ideas.
Implementations of methods have been made in systems that consider local economic utility but do not connect global outcomes in their solutions such as the following patents:
Described herein are implementations of various systems and methods for using a social network, a game engine network and a network to provide users of the networks the ability to integrate their everyday personal and business transactions with charity projects and people globally. Users of the methods on the network will use a reality based game strategy and structure through the use of reality, augmented reality and mixed reality technologies to integrate and link their everyday tasks of personal and business transactions to charity network projects and users in an invention that formerly did not exist. Implementations of methods described herein will link people who need help with those who transact or participate on the system in everyday business transactions. Implementations of methods for users will then have a scrapbook of how their everyday common tasks and transactions added up in a record that truly changed the world and influenced people towards social good.
The claimed subject matter is not limited to implementations that solve any or all of the noted disadvantages. Further, the summary section is provided to introduce a selection of concepts in a simplified form that are further described below in the detailed description section. The summary section is not intended to identify key features or essential features of the claimed subject matter, nor is it intended to be used to limit the scope of the claimed subject matter.
Implementations of various technologies will hereafter be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood, however, that the accompanying drawings illustrate only the various implementations described herein and are not meant to limit the scope of various technologies described herein.
In the following description, for the purposes of explanation, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of embodiments of the invention. It will be apparent, however to one skilled in the art that these embodiments may be practiced without some of the specific details. Embodiments of the invention described herein are implementations of various technologies and methods for determining a global network economic outcome which considers the entire global network of users rather than a single user or a small group of users of the global system. In one implementation economic efficiency implies an economic state in which every resource is optimally allocated to serve each individual or entity in the best way while minimizing waste and inefficiency. When an economy is economically efficient, any changes made to assist one entity would harm another. In terms of production, goods are produced at their lowest possible cost, as are the variable inputs of production. The principles of economic efficiency are based on the concept that resources are scarce. Therefore, there are not enough resources to have all aspects of an economy functioning at their highest capacity at all times. Instead, the scarce resources must be distributed to meet the needs of the economy in an ideal way while also limiting the amount of waste produced. The ideal state is related to the welfare of the population as a whole with peak efficiency also resulting in the highest level of welfare possible based on the resources available.
The invention is a series of implementations of various methods of a comprehensive reality game in reality, augmented reality, mixed reality and virtual reality to match actual charity based projects and people who have needs within charities (i.e., charity clients) with business transactions executed by donors as well as directly linking the projects and clients to the donors in a relational interactive database and social network.
Overall Network
Embodiments of the invention may be implemented within a networking architecture such as illustrated in
The social network and network 130 may use a social network engine such as elgg, drupal, dolphin or a customized social network solution to connect users. Users 110 may upload a basic profile into the system which allows them network access rights and an account on the system that may be used for gaming, social networking and connecting with charity users 120 on the system 100. The Global Positioning System (“GPS”) wireless network 170 allows users 110 and charity users 120 to connect in business transactions on the network 130 and to interact with various game states deployed by the game network engine 150 with virtual reality, reality and mixed reality imports of users 110 into the world of charity users 120 and for charity users 120 to import users 110 into their world. Various game states may exist in reality, virtual reality, augmented reality and mixed reality that are produced by the game network engine 150 for users 110 and charity users 120 through their clients 180.
The typical database server 160 and 140 deployment may be in MySQL or Oracle using Open Database Connectivity (“ODBC”) protocol. Other scripting languages may also be deployed to connect network users and to facilitate business transactions and tracking the work of charity deployment.
Additional details regarding the database structure are illustrated in

Various Technologies to Deploy the Overall System and Method Strategies
Additional Detail on how the Methods and System Interrelate to the Overall Game Strategy and Business Transactions and Charity Users and Development Projects.
In one implementation or embodiment of various methods, the bid-offer computer exchange network 1160, 1260, 1360, 1460, 1560, 1660, 1760, 1860, 1960, 2060, 2160, 2260 may standardize service by a liquidated damages contract and a service level agreement between various points and counterparties. The market would determine the price based on various bids and offers the members submit. The data algorithms may also minimize cost and efficiency by utilizing wireless phone network GPS locations and other inputs. The benefit to this market driven solution changes the system into available units or capacity into smaller units so that larger non-unitized structures are made more efficient. More or less, the system 1100, 1200, 1300, 1400, 1500, 1600, 1700, 1800, 1900, 2000, 2100, 2200 breaks the current disjointed, inefficient system into component parts. Utilizing unused capacity and services will stand to lower waste and sub-optimal economic outcomes significantly by more efficiently using existing capacity within the existing systems. Further the reality game format will provide a mechanism for users to have fun, create a life memoir of helping people and to pass a portion of the savings to charities of choice. Certain levels of gaming will only be accessible if certain capacity requirements are met.
Implementations of additional methods and modules to allow anyone to join as a member of the community (businesses and individuals). Once a member of the network community, users 110 may agree to a standard service level agreement with penalties and liquidated damages under contract for variance in performance. The maximum liquidated damage of the agreement is the cost of the agreed good or service. Users 110 may utilize a plurality of data and sources of data in determining which modules they use. As in any commodity market, a forward curve of pricing may be developed with various time commitments to ensure variable liquidity along the forward curve to incent both financial and physical players to trade the markets.
In one implementation, the method and system for incenting a business transaction may be to battle a virtual in game character in a reality, augmented reality and mixed reality context which would then allow the user 110 access upon defeat of the in game character 530 to unlock a world where the network user 110 has freed a real person or charity user 120 who has been oppressed or disadvantaged in the network community. In another implementation of the method, the method in the relational network database may connect the real people unknown to each other.
