Product labels, trust identifier systems containing the same, and methods of use thereof

This invention describes a system for tracking products using special radio frequency identification (RFID) tags. These tags are uniquely coded to point to a specific digital record-keeping system, such as a blockchain, or a particular data source. By attaching these serialized tags to products and linking them to the digital system, the product's identity and history can be verified. The claims specifically focus on the RFID tag being serialized to indicate the ledger or provider and then associating the product with that system.

Why it matters: Filed before widespread enterprise blockchain adoption. The intervening years have seen significant maturation of distributed ledger platforms and integration tools, simplifying the claimed association and serialization.

Status: ExpiredProtection ended and was never renewed
How hard to build: SpecializedRFID tags, blockchain system, integration software
