Blockchain Oracle-Based Privacy Preservation and Reliable Identification for Vehicles

Blockchain Oracle-Based Privacy Preservation and Reliable Identification for Vehicles

Connected and autonomous vehicles generate massive streams of identity and telemetry data that must be exchanged securely with infrastructure, insurers, and service providers — yet centralized systems are vulnerable to tampering, spoofing, and privacy breaches. This project builds a decentralized vehicular trust framework that combines blockchain technology with oracle mechanisms. The system registers each vehicle's identity as a smart-contract-anchored digital credential, while blockchain oracles securely feed off-chain data — GPS position, sensor readings, insurance status, and inspection records — onto the chain with cryptographic attestations. Zero-knowledge-style selective disclosure allows vehicles to prove specific attributes (e.g., valid license, clean inspection) without revealing full identity, preserving privacy. Immutable on-chain records enable tamper-proof accident reporting, stolen-vehicle verification, and automated insurance claim triggering through smart contracts. Implemented with Ethereum/Hyperledger Fabric, Solidity smart contracts, Web3.py, and an IoT device simulator, the prototype includes a fleet dashboard and mobile demonstration app. This is a forward-looking blockchain IoT project for students and researchers in V2X security and smart transportation solutions.
