VeChain Global Technology SARL, a leader in blockchain technology, has unveiled a groundbreaking patent that merges the Internet of Things (IoT) and blockchain to securely record and authenticate transportation data. This development aims to address existing shortcomings in refrigerated and specialized cargo transportation by preventing data manipulation and ensuring the accuracy of temperature and condition monitoring.
The key innovation lies in the integration with blockchain platforms. Secure data packets are generated and transmitted to a blockchain platform, which acts as a reliable source of truth in this architecture. Equipped with an application server or a smart contract entity, the platform verifies these data packets using the public key of the IoT device. Once authenticated, the data is permanently recorded on the blockchain.

This systemic approach not only guarantees the precision of transportation data but also significantly reduces the risk of data tampering, a prevalent issue in current refrigerated transportation systems. Traditional systems are prone to inaccuracies as temperature data can be easily manipulated, potentially jeopardizing cargo quality and safety. Moreover, these systems often record temperatures at fixed points, failing to accurately reflect the cargo’s actual conditions during transit.
VeChain’s innovative solution empowers all stakeholders in the transportation chain to access verifiable, real-time data backed by the robust security of blockchain. This development represents a significant stride toward establishing an unbreakable chain of trust in the logistics and transportation sector, aligning with VeChain Global Technology SARL’s enduring commitment to excellence.
