Systems and methods for facilitating social discovery

Abstract

An example implementation includes systems and methods for facilitating social discovery to obtain, from at least a second device, device information associated with the second device; transmit the device information associated with the second device to the social discovery platform; receive, from the social discovery platform, user information associated with a second user of the second device in response to transmitting the device information associated with the second device; and providing, to the first user, the user information associated with the second user.

What is claimed: 
     
         1 . A system for facilitating social discovery, comprising:
 a social discovery platform; and   a first device associated with a first user, the first device comprising:   
       a hardware processor; and
 at least one executable software module that, when executed by the hardware processor, is configured to: 
 
       obtain, from at least a second device, device information associated with the second device;
 transmit the device information associated with the second device to the social discovery platform; 
 receive, from the social discovery platform, user information associated with a second user of the second device in response to transmitting the device information associated with the second device, wherein the receiving the user information associated with a second user of the second device is based on analyzing the photograph of the second user to determine features that satisfy a preference of the first user; 
 determine whether to present, to the first user, the user information associated with the second user based at least in part on the user information associated with the second user and one or more filter criteria based on heuristic analysis of information associated with the first user; and 
 based on the determination, present, to the first user, the user information associated with the second user.
