- IOTA, through Filancore played a key role in project ALFRIED and the future of smart mobility.
- IOTA’s evolution over the years has placed it at the forefront of digital innovation.
IOTA, the Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) came out with a positive showing at the just concluded project ALFRIED event. Known for its capability to power enterprise-based Internet of Things (IoT) innovations, some ALFRIED partners showcased how they are integrating IOTA into their inventions as it concerns the future of autonomous vehicles.
The ALFRIED Mission and IOTA Contributions
The AFRIED project is an ambitious one, initiated to help revolutionize inner-city transportation through Automated and Connected Driving (AVF) and Intelligent Transport Systems (IVS). The project was inaugurated on the grounds that the current challenges in the transport system are not sustainable and might pose risks to users.
With the plan to design systems that can curb these risks, ALFRIED partners conducted a series of research and converged to unveil their findings and innovations at the just concluded event.
As shared by Filancore GmBH, a Decentralized Identity Management for IoT and an ALFRIED event attendee, presentations featuring Mini-trucks for traffic simulations were showcased. Besides this, the simulations for the Smart City control center which answers crucial questions like how to control traffic congestion, where motorists have to share roads with cyclists and what safe emissions allowances are permitted also underscores the importance of technology in the push to usher in a better future.
Finaly #ALFRIED was a project full of inspiration & new contacts. Sadly, it comes to an end, but I am confident this is only the start to become production ready. At this point, we can only say #thanyou especially to @EtoGruppe and to all #Alfried partners. pic.twitter.com/sv3nLi5UHB

As an IOTA-based protocol, Filancore GmBH plays a crucial role in supporting Eto Gruppe, one of ALFRIED’s core partners. Eto Gruppe specializes in the production of electromagnetic valves, actuators, and sensors for car manufacturers around the world. For its part, Filancore provides the company with a cutting-edge SSI Management system.
This solution helps Eto Gruppe combat the likelihood of facing counterfeiting in its produced car parts. As a foolproof system, IOTA guarantees the immutability of data and increases the efficiency of Filancore in supporting Eto Gruppe’s mission and ultimately the mission of ALFRIED.
IOTA and the Digital Autonomy and Privacy Potentials
Despite its design as a protocol with unique capabilities, IOTA has been undergoing intensive upgrades over the past years to build on its mission to revolutionize digital autonomy while bolstering systems’ privacy.
As reported earlier by Crypto News Flash, the IOTA Identity 1.0 was launched this week. IOTA Identity 1.0 is the latest version of its Decentralized Identity (DID) tool built based on the incorporation of the advancements from the Stardust protocol upgrade.
While it is making impressive moves in this section, IOTA’s focus on privacy is not waning as it places emphasis on this feature at each of its previous protocol upgrades.
Since the European Union where project ALFRIED will be implemented at scale places a high premium on privacy and data economy, IOTA’s role in the grand scheme of things may increase in the near future once different stakeholders realize its inherent potential
