At the beginning of 2023, considering the evolution of current technologies and relying on the acquired experiences on software and hardware development, Stetel activated a new program of Research & Development in order to develop and fine-tune new IoT technical solutions for improving the safety of the Automotive sector.
This idea arises to give a concrete solution to the consumer needs, in terms of private and industrial target, of improving ease, flexibility and safety regarding the controlling motor vehicles/motorcycle access. Furthermore, the last forecast shows that the Global Automotive Active Safety System Market size is projected to be USD 84,679.13 million in 2023 and is estimated to reach USD 235,880.21 million by 2032, as the answer to the increasing safety and protection necessity from inappropriate access/use and other compromise security events.
In particular, our program of evaluation, analysis and experimental verification activities aimed at the design and creation of a Hardware/Software/Firmware system to realise an IoT development platform for the locks operation and other auxiliary systems.
The project is based on UWB high-precision positioning technologies that measure the distance between the user and the vehicle and allow the vehicle to consequently behave according to user behaviour. This system is supported by Artificial Intelligence and protected through Blockchain services to ensure specific functionalities.
Since one of the functional objectives of the development is to create a modular system, the prototype has the potential to be applied to further numerous use cases. The device in fact allows electrical or mechanical actions to be performed in a controlled and safe manner, which result in changes in the state of the vehicle itself. By way of example, some of the actions that the project believes to be targeted by research and development activities are the following:
Motor vehicles
Motorcycles
Another fundamental element in defining the project objective is the need to simplify, rationalise and give the user the responsibility to perform all those system management functions that allow the configuration of access and use of the different vehicle systems.
For this scope, our team has considered the Blockchain features as the ideal solution in order to guarantee the decentralisation of access control and use of functionality. In detail, throughout blockchain implementation, it is possible to integrate numerous elements to manage the functions authorizations and the users that have access or can utilise the vehicle. In particular we can consider:
Furthermore, Artificial Intelligence functionalities can enhance the efficiency and the user experience of the end-to-end system automating the cars’ functionalities based on the owner specific way of acting and working as the heart of a "Smart" orchestrator that is capable to dynamically link the physical system to its representation on the blockchain.

The infrastructure and innovations that power our society have sparked a technological revolution that is essentially transforming the way society operates by focusing on new productive assets, such as Smart and Autonomous Machines.
Smart Machines are becoming part of our reality and according to McKinsey forecasts they generate more than $12 trillion by 2030.
Blockchain, AI, 5G connectivity, IoT and other frontier technologies are re-architecting our economy to provide value, control and organise everyday activities efficiently, moving to a paradigm shift from Web 2.0 to Web 3.0, where Decentralisation Network, Digital Communities and Peer-to-Peer Economy are the basis.
How can all this be achieved?
The first step is to set up smart devices that easily connect every tool of daily life with the digital world.
The efficiency and the wide spectrum of our boards combined with our knowledge in the blockchain and IoT field, give us the opportunity to be a part of this vision, starting a new project with the IoTex company.
IoTex is an innovative and decentralised ecosystem that employs Blockchain Technology to connect IoT devices, data and utility to dApps.
Our team, according to the partner requests, realised the prototype of IoTex DevBoard. This DevBoard aims to be the base for several IoTeX based device projects. The ability to power it via a simple LiPo battery in addition to the Low power modes, the LPWAN module and blockchain enabled Secure Element makes it perfect for portable or handheld devices.
