Filament Launches Automotive Blockchain Platform for Connected Vehicle Applications

New automotive blockchain platform connects directly to the vehicle data-bus for at-source generation of trusted data and blockchain transactions

Filament, provider of comprehensive enterprise blockchain solutions for the Internet of Things (IoT), today announced Blocklet™ for Trusted Vehicle Applications (TVA). Available as part of Filament’s Blocklet Kit for Trusted Vehicle Applications, Blocklet TVA is the industry’s first end-to-end automotive blockchain platform that allows vehicles to participate directly in blockchain and distributed ledger technologies (DLTs). The hardware — which includes Filament’s Blocklet technology, as well as cellular connectivity, environmental sensing and access to vehicle diagnostics — makes it possible for automotive, freight and transportation companies to create new, large-scale connected-vehicle services and smart contract applications on top of a trusted blockchain foundation. Filament is unveiling and demonstrating Blocklet TVA at MarketWaves18 in Grapevine, Texas this week.
