Democratizing IoT data with infinitely-scalable concurrent contracts, trustless light nodes, and encrypted data markets on top of block lattice.
Distributed ledger technologies (DLT) can address many of IoT's challenges, making them perfectly complementary. The bad news is, current DLT's foundation is weakened by numerous flaws, making it poorly-suited for large-scale IoT applications, which is why we built Taraxa.

Inspired by the principles of software transactional memory (STM), Taraxa achieves node-level concurrency by speculative parallelization of smart contract calls, with conflict minimization achieved from built-in concurrent data structures.
Each contract call is initially ordered by sets by the contract creator or its delegate, then randomly assigned to a full-node initial processor weighted by historical reputation. The assigned node acknowledges, processes, broadcasts the results which are validated by the rest of the network.
IoT devices are constrained by their processing, memory, and bandwidth limitations. Instead of making them blind puppets of full nodes, Taraxa has created the first practical trustless light node to make devices fully independent and autonomous in their trading decisions.

TrigID
TrigID is the first and only Internet-based way to show that a real-world human is who they say they are. It enforces "one person, one identity" and you can verify that real-world identity with real-world identifiers like driver's license numbers, SSN's, addresses, phone numbers... All without giving anyone those identifiers.

Aimedis
Aimedis is an AI backed, blockchain and smart contract supported medical ecosystem, that changes the way patients, doctors, and hospitals communicate, connect and handle information. Using the Aimedis platform, users can store, secure and share their medical information only with the people they want to share it with by using the Aimedis right management system. Beside the records, AImedis offers videochat and communication with other patients and doctors, online prescriptions, online appointments, learning content, the inclusion of fitness trackers and devices like ECG or bloodpressure monitors into the system, while all transactions inside the system are backed by our porprietary private AIMChain blockchain, while the token is bound to a public blockchain (Aimedis dual-blockchain model). AIMSocial will be the new incentivised and decentralized medical social network where patients can help other patients and get rewarded for it, while the system is supported by AI.
