Information system for item verification

This invention describes a system for tracking items and their components through a chain of custody to identify any inconsistencies. It works by assigning unique digital identifiers to individual parts and their assembled whole, recording these relationships in a central database. A key aspect of the system, as described in the claims, involves using a processor to manage these identifiers on a server and can specifically use a blockchain structure to maintain the integrity of these records across multiple servers.

Why it matters: Since 2022, enterprise blockchain platforms have matured significantly, offering more accessible tools for implementing secure, distributed ledgers. This makes building the claimed blockchain-based verification system more feasible and cost-effective now.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedSoftware logic, server infrastructure, blockchain implementation
