If on April we were at the Blockchain Expo Global in London, helping at the stand of the Telos project, on this occasion we repeated for the Blockchain Expo Europe held on 19 and 20 June in Amsterdam.

Again, another member of The Teloscope team, Luis Meijueiro, flew to Amsterdam, and not only to help manning the Telos booth explaining to visitors the advantages of Telos blockchain platform, but also to show two PoCs that we have created for Telos.

One of our applications, which we call ‘decibelathor’, proves the high processing speed of the Telos blockchain network, which is able to validate and store a block every half second, and to process around 4000 transactions per second.

For this purpose, a microphone connected to a micro-computer picks up the level (in dB) of the ambient sound, which is immediately recorded into the public Telos blockchain (mainnet). The successive measurements are queried and graphically presented by a web application, where users can check in real time the noise variations as they occur.

The second use case that we demoed is an example of a blockchain-based agri-food traceability system. Our application enables producers, transformers, distributors and sellers to register and verify the information of each product made. The end consumer can check all this information and have greater certainty about the origin and treatment of the product.

GoodBlock also brought their own PoCs developed for Telos, and one was an example of how to track on Telos the production of a good, an electronic board in the case shown. And the Telos Foundation, in collaboration with the proxibots project, showed an example of access control to a lockbox.

We talked with numerous visitors of very diverse nature, coming from logistics companies, technology consultants, or even an engineer from the European Space Agency. All of them were interested in the possibilities of implementing solutions based on blockchain technologies for their own business or field of application. And we were eager to show them the best platform to build that solutions on. 😉

Also at this event, many conferences and high-level round tables were offered in rooms adjacent to the exhibition area, which quickly filled up. On the first day Douglas Horn participated in a round table focused on transparency and provenance blockchain solutions, and how they can help improve customer loyalty and business profitability. And on the next day we could watch Douglas presenting the Telos project in greater detail at one of the stages set up within the exhibition area.

Overall this event has been a wonderful experience, and all of us at the booth were able to show the capabilities of Telos, with real solutions for diverse industries.

We are eager to participate again with Telos in forthcoming events, and collaborate with the rest of BPs and members of the Telos Foundation to promote this great project.
