At the end of the rental period, the system automatically generates a settlement statement based on the equipment usage records and rental contract, and users can pay with one click through the app.

[0123] By combining cutting-edge technologies such as edge computing, machine learning, blockchain, and intelligent adaptation protocols, the core problems existing in the current IoT smart leasing system, such as poor device interoperability, high network latency, difficulty in ensuring data security, and untimely equipment maintenance, have been solved.

[0129] Example 2

[0130] like Figure 2 As shown, to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, based on Embodiment 1, another technical solution adopted in this application is:

[0131] A smart leasing method based on the Internet of Things includes the following steps:

[0132] Step 1: Employ an AI adaptive communication protocol selection algorithm to dynamically select the optimal communication protocol and automatically adjust network settings to optimize communication efficiency between devices, thereby building a multimodal data fusion and sensor self-organizing network for communication.

[0133] AI-adaptive communication protocol selection algorithm is used:

[0165] Blockchain technology and smart contracts: In addition to storing transaction records in traditional blockchains, zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) technology will be combined to protect data privacy.

[0166] Zero-knowledge proofs ensure data authenticity without exposing the data content. They guarantee transaction verification while protecting user privacy, preventing third-party theft of personal information. Homomorphic encryption is used during data storage, allowing for analysis and processing even when data is stored encrypted.

[0167] While ensuring data privacy, it supports efficient data processing and analysis.

[0168] Step 5: Based on the dynamic pricing algorithm and blockchain payment model, dynamically adjust the rental fee according to user demand, equipment usage, and market changes. The billing algorithm formula is as follows:

[0169] ;

[0170] in, The rental fee is the cost of the rental. For the rental period, Based on the frequency of equipment use, This is market demand data for the equipment.

[0171] Specifically, this involves enabling intelligent and dynamic billing of rental fees, while ensuring the security and convenience of the payment process.

[0172] By combining dynamic pricing algorithms and blockchain payment systems, rental fees are dynamically adjusted based on user needs, equipment usage, and market changes.

[0173] Through AI pricing models (such as pricing algorithms based on time series analysis), the system can automatically adjust fees based on data such as the rental duration and usage frequency of the equipment, ensuring that each user rents at a fair price.

[0174] Algorithm formula:

[0175] ;

[0176] in, The rental fee is the cost of the rental. For the rental period, Based on the frequency of equipment use, This is market demand data for the equipment.

[0177] Using smart contracts, the leasing agreement is fully automated in the payment and equipment handover processes, ensuring transparency and security throughout the leasing process.

[0178] It supports multiple cryptocurrencies and traditional payment methods, making the payment process more global and convenient.

[0179] Specifically, the combination of edge computing and federated learning solves the latency problem between devices and cloud platforms, improving the real-time performance of data processing.
