Digital Image Work Registration With NFT Ownership Tracking
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
In live streaming events, digital image works lack uniqueness and immediacy in transactions, leading to challenges in setting fair prices and ensuring ownership, with sellers facing risks of unauthorized copying and buyers lacking satisfaction due to potential duplication and low value.
Innovation Solution
A work registration system that captures images, issues non-fungible tokens (NFTs) linked to user authority, and registers these on a blockchain network, allowing immediate and secure digital asset management with ownership tracking and transaction history.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If a digital certificate system (NFT) is used to link with digital image works, then ownership and uniqueness are improved, but immediacy and ease of operation deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The system pre-establishes a mapping relationship between digital image works and digital certificates before actual transactions occur. The registration process automatically links the work with its certificate in advance, enabling immediate operation while maintaining ownership guarantees through the pre-configured blockchain linkage.
Solution Approach 2:
The system introduces a registration management device as an intermediary between the digital image work and the digital certificate. This intermediary automatically handles the linkage process, managing the complexity of blockchain integration while providing simple, immediate registration operations for users.
2Reliability
If digital image works are registered with digital certificates, then value and uniqueness are improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts the complex blockchain integration logic from the user-side application and concentrates it in the centralized registration management device. Users only need to upload their digital image works through simple interfaces, while the system handles the complex digital certificate issuance and blockchain registration automatically.
Solution Approach 2:
The registration management device serves multiple functions including digital certificate issuance, work registration, ownership verification, and transaction management. By consolidating these functions into a single multi-functional system, the overall device complexity is reduced while maintaining work uniqueness and value.
3Ease of operation
If traditional copying methods are used for digital image works, then ease of operation is maintained, but harmful factors increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system creates a digital certificate that serves as a unique copy representing the digital image work. This digital certificate contains authentication information that proves ownership and prevents unauthorized copying, while still allowing legitimate users to access and view the work through the registration system.
Solution Approach 2:
The system applies preliminary anti-action by embedding authentication information and ownership verification mechanisms directly into the digital certificate before any copying or distribution occurs. This pre-established protection mechanism automatically prevents unauthorized copying attempts while maintaining ease of operation for authorized users.

AI summary
Provided are a work registration system, a work registration method, and a work registration support device that can easily register a digital image work linked with a digital certificate. A processor (100) of a work registration support device (10) receives user information corresponding to a user who acquires authority information related to registration of the digital image work, stores the authority information in a storage (120) in association with the user information, issues a non-fungible token (NFT) to be linked with the digital image work based on the user information in a case in which the digital image work using, as at least a part thereof, an image captured by an imaging unit of a user terminal is received, and the digital image work is related to the user corresponding to the authority information stored in the storage (120), and registers the NFT in a blockchain network.
