SUPPLY CHAIN TO BLOCKCHAIN

Harvest Network consists of smart contracts on the Ethereum blockchain that build a mesh network for managing supply chain. Utilizing ERC-721 tokens for assets, now all participants of the supply chain can view and analyze the data of their supply chain. With hand-held devices like cellphones, IoT scanners, and printers installed at farms and processing facilities the entire process from start to finish is turned into data and economically stored on the blockchain.
IoT Sensors custom installed
With automated sensors built into the workflow of the facility, tracking has never been easier. Using the Harvest Network Web portal allows for streamlined data analytics over the entire process.
Created and deployed on our Smart Contract Platform
Assets are tracked with our IoT sensors from the very beginning of their lifecycle. As assets move between entities and processing facilities, our Smart Contract network manages and displays the whole history of the asset.
Consumer End Management
Harvest Network Smart Contract systems works with the web portal and consumer phone app, meaning now consumers can see the data on their product in store! Manage recalls with a touch of a button using our recall alert function. Track data on what products consumers like the most.
ERC-721 assets that can be fully customized
Assets are stored as ERC-721 Non-Fungible tokens, this means any data can be attached and securely stored to a single asset or a whole batch. Entire truckloads can be transferred between owners, or updated with pictures. All the data is customized to your needs while upholding GS1 and PTI standards.

SMART CONTRACT DESIGN

Harvest Network provides traceability and complete data management via their unique Ethereum Smart Contract system. Utilizing the safest standards for production Harvest Network has a multi-level management system to track, update, display and analyze data on your products. All hosted on the Ethereum Blockchain.
Immutable ledger meets traceability
Using the Ethereum blockchain allows for all the data stored on the smart contract system to be accessed and viewed anywhere in the world, without fear of being hacked. Now customers in Japan can see where the California Orange was grown, how it was handled, what went into production, etc.
Stand alone or fully integrated
Harvest Network's systems are so robust they can be used as stand alone solutions for traceability on smaller production sites and farms, or fully integrated to work with the software already used in the largest production houses in the country.
Transparent data analytics
Allowing users and facilities to see the data that is relevant to them. Using the ethereum blockchain for premissioned views - the control is in the hands of the farmer.

WEB PORTAL AND PHONE APP

Web Portal for GS1 Traceability and Data Analytics

Harvest Network's web portal is the perfect solution for easy integration into your current workflow. Custom integration at your facility means we can work with all systems that are already in place. Our easy web interface allows user managements to log in from anywhere in the world and access your data. Interacting with the Ethereum Blockchain has never been easier.

I worked on the the back-end API for BlockAero which uses a microservices architecture and was written in Bash and Python. The API takes an image or PDF as an input, and uses machine learning and neural networks for classification, and uses OCR and text parsing to return relevant data from the page.

I worked on:
- image processing in OpenCV
- optimising OCR output from Tesseract by adjusting parameters as well as image preprocessing techniques
- using machine learning to classify data
- creating/adjusting some of the microservices

INSPIRATION

Steve Jobs Died a billionaire at age 56.  This is his final essay:
 
 I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world.  In some others' eyes, my life is the epitome of success.  However, aside from work, I have little joy.  In the end, my wealth is only a fact of life that I am accustomed to.  At this moment, lying on my bed and recalling my life, I realize that all the recognition and wealth that I took so much pride in have paled and become meaningless in the face of my death. 

You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone bear your sickness for you.  Material things lost can be found or replaced.  But there is one thing that can never be found when it's lost - Life.  Whichever stage in life you are in right now, with time, you will face the day when the curtain comes down. 

Treasure love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well and cherish others.  As we grow older, and hopefully wiser, we realize that a $300 or a $30 watch both tell the same time.  You will realize that your true inner happiness does not come from the material things of this world.  Whether you fly first class or economy, if the plane goes down - you go down with it.   

Therefore, I hope you realize, when you have mates, buddies and old friends, brothers and sisters, who you chat with, laugh with, talk with, have sing songs with, talk about north-south-east-west or heaven and earth, that is true happiness!  Don't educate your children to be rich.  Educate them to be happy.  So when they grow up they will know the value of things and not the price.  Eat your food as your medicine, otherwise you have to eat medicine as your food. 

The One who loves you will never leave you for another because, even if there are 100 reasons to give up, he or she will find a reason to hold on. There is a big difference between a human being and being human.  Only a few really understand it.  You are loved when you are born.  You will be loved when you die.  In between, you have to manage! 

The six best doctors in the world are sunlight, rest, exercise, diet, self-confidence and 
friends .   Maintain them in all stages and enjoy a healthy life.

POTENTIAL PARTNERSHIPS WITH DLT & DO GOOD ENTERPRISES

POTENTIAL PARTNERSHIPS WITH DLT & DO GOOD ENTERPRISES

PROJECTS

Inrupt
https://www.inrupt.com/

It’s time to reset the balance of power on the web and reignite its true potential.

When Sir Tim Berners-Lee invented the web, it was intended for everyone. The excitement and creativity of its early days were driven from the notion that we can all participate - and the impact was world-changing.

But the web has shifted from its original promise - and it’s time to make a change.

We can still unlock the true promise of the web by decentralizing the power that’s currently centralized in the hands of a few. How? By using the power of Solid.

Solid is the technically potent open-source platform built to decentralize the web. Inrupt is the company that’s helping to fuel Solid’s success.

Company was founded in 2014. Also, it raised a seed round funding in Sep 2014, according to a Techcrunch article.
Endor raised $5M in seed funding when it launched in September, 2014. That round was led by Marker with participation from Eric Schmidt’s firm, Innovation Endeavors. The company is based in Tel Aviv in Israel and currently has 10 employees. It is still in stealth, working with early customers and design partners on the product, and plans to launch officially at a later date still to be determined. — Techcrunch
Check if there is a plan in place to prevent seed round investors from ‘cashing out’ using ICO sale.

In 2017, Endor was named Technology Pioneer by the World Economic Forum, Cool vendor by Gartner, and The Google for predictive analytics by MIT.
