User-Terminal Ownership Certificates for Item Legitimacy Checks
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems fail to efficiently verify the legitimacy of the owner and the item in transactions involving art works and jewelry, lacking transparency in the distribution market.
Innovation Solution
A system utilizing a user terminal to acquire an object fingerprint and biometric information, which writes an ownership right certificate including these details on an electronic bulletin board, ensuring legitimacy through biometric and object authentication.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If existing systems are used for item transactions, then the transaction process is simple, but the legitimacy verification of owner and item cannot be performed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces an electronic bulletin board as an intermediary system that stores and verifies ownership certificates containing biometric information and item identification data. This mediator enables legitimacy verification without requiring direct complex interactions between trading parties, thus improving reliability while managing system complexity through a centralized verification mechanism
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates digital copies of ownership information by storing biometric data and item identification data in ownership certificates on the electronic bulletin board. These digital copies serve as verifiable proofs of legitimacy, allowing multiple parties to verify ownership without accessing the original physical items or owners directly
2Loss of information
If ownership verification is implemented, then transparency of distribution market is improved, but the complexity of acquiring and writing ownership certificates increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent performs preliminary actions by acquiring biometric information and item identification data before the actual transaction occurs. The ownership certificate is prepared and stored on the electronic bulletin board in advance, so that when a transaction needs to occur, the verification process is already streamlined and does not add significant complexity to the actual trading moment
Solution Approach 2:
The electronic bulletin board automatically stores and manages ownership certificates, making the transparency information readily accessible without requiring manual verification processes. The system serves itself by automatically comparing biometric data and item identification data against stored certificates, reducing the operational complexity for users
Data Source
AI summary
A system includes a user terminal and a plurality of ledger nodes. The user terminal acquires an object fingerprint of an item and biometric information of an owner of the item. The plurality of ledger nodes provides an electronic bulletin board. The user terminal writes an ownership right certificate including the object fingerprint of the item and the biometric information of the owner on the electronic bulletin board. The system may further include a server apparatus. The user terminal may transmit an item registration request including at least the object fingerprint of the item and the biometric information of the owner to the server apparatus.
