North Carolina Patent of the Month – March 2025
Transmira Inc. has patented a groundbreaking system that bridges the gap between the physical and digital worlds. Their new technology, outlined in U.S. Patent No. 12,243,101, titled “Systems and Methods for Digital or Cryptographic Media, Assets, or Tokens Linked to Physical Objects, Services, or Privileges,” enables tangible items to be securely linked to digital media, assets, or tokens using cryptographic methods, including blockchain. This innovation marks a significant leap in digital asset management.
Simplifying Ownership and Transfer
The patented system streamlines the transfer of ownership by creating redeemable digital tokens that represent physical objects or services. By linking real-world items to digital counterparts on a secure blockchain, Transmira facilitates seamless and secure exchanges of ownership interests. This approach reduces fraud, enhances transparency, and speeds up transactions across industries like retail, real estate, and entertainment.
Real-World Applications
This technology has vast real-world applications. Users can now link everything from artwork to vehicles—and even tickets—to blockchain tokens, ensuring secure proof of ownership and easier transactions. As digital and physical assets continue to merge, Transmira’s innovation promises to revolutionize how we manage, buy, and sell products and services globally.
