SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENABLING TRUSTED ON-DEMAND DISTRIBUTED MANUFACTURING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240231324 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ENABLING TRUSTED ON-DEMAND DISTRIBUTED MANUFACTURING
The abstract describes a system for enabling trusted on-demand distributed manufacturing, involving interfaces for product and manufacturing data, a trust anchor module adding a physically unclonable function to products, a matching module for buyer and producer requirements, and a traceability module for verifying manufacturing success.
- The system includes interfaces for product and manufacturing data exchange.
- A trust anchor module adds a physically unclonable function to products.
- A non-fungible token is generated to represent the product on an NFT platform.
- A matching module matches product characteristics with buyer and producer requirements.
- A traceability module verifies the success of the manufacturing process.
Potential Applications: - On-demand manufacturing - Supply chain management - Product authentication and verification
Problems Solved: - Ensuring trust in distributed manufacturing - Matching buyer requirements with producer capabilities - Verifying the success of the manufacturing process
Benefits: - Increased trust in on-demand manufacturing - Efficient matching of buyer and producer requirements - Enhanced product traceability and authentication
Commercial Applications: Title: Trusted On-Demand Distributed Manufacturing System This technology can be used in various industries such as e-commerce, healthcare, and automotive for efficient and trustworthy manufacturing processes.
Questions about Trusted On-Demand Distributed Manufacturing System: 1. How does the trust anchor module enhance product security? The trust anchor module adds a physically unclonable function to products, making them unique and secure against counterfeiting or tampering. 2. What are the potential implications of using non-fungible tokens in representing products on an NFT platform? Non-fungible tokens can enhance product traceability, authenticity, and value, opening up new possibilities for digital ownership and verification.
Original Abstract Submitted
a system () for enabling trusted on-demand distributed manufacturing includes a first interface () configured to receive product data from a product data source (-a, -b, -n), a second interface () configured to exchange manufacturing data from a manufacturing data source (-a, -b, -n), a trust anchor module () configured via computer executable instructions to add a physically unclonable function (puf) to a product, generate a non-fungible token (nft) to represent the product on an nft platform (), a matching module () configured via computer executable instructions to match the product characteristics with requirements of a buyer and manufacturing capabilities of a producer, and a traceability module () to verify success of a manufacturing process.
