Virtual matching system incorporating genetic data

A computer implemented method for matching users together, the method comprising:

• receiving genetic data corresponding to each of a plurality of users;
• generating a genetic profile for each user based, at least in part, on the user's corresponding genetic data;
• generating a respective virtual avatar for each user, the generating comprising utilizing user customization selections and one or more genetic traits of the respective genetic data to generate an appearance trait for the respective virtual avatar, and limiting the user customization selections based on the respective genetic data;
• generating a compatibility score between a designated user of the plurality of users and each other user of the plurality of users, based at least partially on the genetic profiles, wherein generating the compatibility score comprises determining immunes system compatibility based on analysis of major histocompatibility complex of the genetic profiles of each pair of users;
• determining at least one potential partner for the designated user based on the compatibility scores;
• and
• identifying the potential partner to the designated user, displaying the respective virtual avatar of the designated and the potential partner in a virtual environment.

A computer implemented method for determining user compatibility, comprising:

• receiving genetic information regarding each of a plurality of users;
• generating a genetic profile for each user based on the genetic information;
• generating a compatibility score corresponding to each pair of users of the plurality of users, based at least partially on the genetic profiles, wherein generating the compatibility score comprises determining health risks to a potential offspring based on a combination the genetic profiles of each pair of users;
• generating a respective virtual avatar for each user, the generating comprising generating an appearance trait for the respective virtual avatar based on user customization selections and the corresponding user's genetic profile, and limiting the user customization selections based on the corresponding user's genetic profile;
• and
• identifying to each user at least one compatible other user, based on the compatibility scores, displaying the virtual avatar of the respective user and the at least one compatible other user in a live virtual environment.

• and
• identifying to each user at least one compatible other user, based on the compatibility scores, displaying the virtual avatar of the respective user and the at least one compatible other user in a virtual environment, wherein displaying the virtual avatar of the respective user and the at least one compatible other user in the virtual environment comprises displaying an offspring avatar generated based on a combination the genetic profiles of the respective user and the at least one compatible other user.
