On June 11, 2017, Infopulse and their honorable Blockchain partner REMME won the first place at Microsoft Blockchain Intensive with their traffic collision awareness and reporting system, based on the Internet of Things, IPFS protocol, and EmerCoin Blockchain.

Microsoft Blockchain Intensive is a large 3-day event, held by Microsoft Ukraine and focused on solving real-life challenges with Blockchain technology. Conducted on June 9-11, 2017, the event gathered 500+ visitors and received support from PwC, Deloitte, EY, Infopulse, Distributed Lab, IDF Reforms Lab, and other local and international companies.

Jan Keil, Infopulse VP of Marketing, participated in the event as a speaker. Our expert spoke about Blockchain being a honey pie for investments and about its potential for the automotive industry.

On the second and third day of the Intensive, 18 teams competed in a Blockchain-themed hackathon. The primary task was to create a solution, which would be fully compliant with the core ideas of Blockchain: transparency, decentralization, and security. The participants were free to either select an open topic or embrace a challenge suggested by the real clients:

  • KT-Energy needed to create a Blockchain platform for electricity accounting and trading on the p2p basis.
  • Raiffeisen Bank Aval offered participants to implement smart contracts with Blockchain for the trilateral agreements with international financial institutions.
  • The Ukrainian Sea Ports Authority was looking for a solution to streamline the procurement processes.

The Infopulse-REMME joint team presented their own solution for the automotive industry. The solution utilizes car sensors, telemetry, and distributed technologies to record traffic incidents and settle them before trial. The system also implements Blockchain-secured car authentication, car protection from cyber-attacks, and allows gathering car data for further infrastructure and car safety improvements. The team presented an interactive visualization based on a sample from a sensor and confirmed data plausibility via Blockchain in Azure Cloud.

Technical details:

  • The system is based on Microsoft Azure cloud.
  • Wi-Fi WPA Enterprise authentication of external devices via EAP-TLS.
  • Creation of the car profile by recording the current state of the car in Ethereum Blockchain via smart contracts.
  • EmerCoin Blockchain is used to create certificates.
  • IPFS as a decentralized database, etc.

The Infopulse-REMME team received high appraisal from the jury and won the first place. The work on the project continues, as this solution may be of use for automotive and insurance companies and can be integrated with any automotive IoT device.
