==CHECKING A LICENSE FOR THE USAGE OF AT LEAST ONE PERFORMANCE PROPERTY IN AN INTERNET-OF-THINGS (IOT) DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240265069 titled 'CHECKING A LICENSE FOR THE USAGE OF AT LEAST ONE PERFORMANCE PROPERTY IN AN INTERNET-OF-THINGS (IOT) DEVICE

The abstract of the patent application describes a method for checking a license for the usage of performance properties in an Internet of Things (IoT) device. The method involves ascertaining license conditions, transmitting and storing a license identifier, generating a pseudo-access, checking the authorization for the pseudo-access, and activating the performance properties based on the confirmation of the pseudo-access.

* The method involves checking a license for the usage of performance properties in IoT devices.
* License conditions are ascertained based on attributes contained in a license identifier.
* A pseudo-access is generated and assigned to the performance properties using a pseudo-holding unit.
* The authorization for the pseudo-access is checked by verifying the attributes of the license identifier.
* The performance properties are activated if the pseudo-access is confirmed.
* The license identifier, pseudo-holding unit, and verification unit are designed based on a specification for verifiable credentials.

Potential Applications:
- This technology can be applied in various IoT devices to ensure proper licensing for performance properties.
- It can be used in smart home devices, industrial IoT systems, and wearable technology to regulate access to specific performance features.

Problems Solved:
- Ensures that IoT devices comply with licensing agreements for performance properties.
- Prevents unauthorized usage of performance features in IoT devices.

Benefits:
- Enhances security and control over the usage of performance properties in IoT devices.
- Streamlines the process of checking and activating licenses for performance features.
- Helps in maintaining compliance with licensing agreements.

Commercial Applications:
Title: "License Verification Method for IoT Devices"
This technology can be utilized by IoT device manufacturers to enforce licensing agreements for performance properties, ensuring proper usage and compliance. It can also be integrated into IoT platforms to provide a secure and controlled environment for accessing performance features.

Questions about License Verification Method for IoT Devices:

1. How does this method enhance security in IoT devices?
This method enhances security by verifying licenses for performance properties, preventing unauthorized usage.

2. What are the potential implications of this technology in the IoT industry?
This technology can lead to improved compliance with licensing agreements, better control over performance features, and increased trust in IoT devices.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

a method for checking a license for the usage of at least one performance property in an internet of things device, is provided, having the steps of—ascertaining at least one license condition for the usage of the performance property of the iot device by at least one attribute contained in a license identifier, —transmitting and storing the license identifier, —checking the license condition by a) generating a pseudo-access which is assigned to the performance property using a pseudo-holding unit and b) checking an authorization for the pseudo-access by checking the attribute of the license identifier using a verification unit, and—activating the at least one performance property if the pseudo-access is confirmed, wherein the license identifier, the pseudo-holding unit, and the verification unit are designed based on a specification for verifiable credentials.
