Blockchain
An Internet of Thing (IoT) device includes a camera coupled to a processor; and a wireless transceiver coupled to the processor. Blockchain smart contracts can be used with the device to facilitate secure operation.
1. A device, comprising:
a device body;
an accelerometer coupled to the body; a camera to capture an image;
a wireless transceiver; and
a processor coupled to the body and associated with a blockchain with a blockchain address for a secured transaction by accessing data, content, or application stored in a cloud storage; authorizing a first client device; receiving an authorization request from the first client device; generating an authorization key for accessing a cloud server and storing the key in a blockchain; providing the authorization key to the first client device; receiving the authorization key from a remote device as a second client device working as an agent of the first client device; granting access to the second client device based on the authorization key; receiving code and data associated with an application or content identified in a blockchain, and running code with the data.
2.
