The model we are building

CEIN

Secure AI-Enabled Proximity-Aware Cryptographic Identity Node

A pocketable node that holds identity, discovers trusted peers without surveillance, builds on-device economic graphs, and links real assets to sovereign digital systems.

Research gap: No existing system combines tamper-resistant hardware, cryptographic proximity with ZK privacy, on-device economic AI, full SSI, and asset tokenization into one community-scale identity node.

Architecture

Sovereign Node stack

  1. 1

    Physical & asset interface

    Sensors, NFC, QR — linking real-world assets to the node.

  2. 2

    Cryptographic proximity

    BLE discovery + UWB ranging with ZK proofs and anti-tracking.

  3. 3

    Identity & secure element

    EAL-class root of trust, DIDs, and verifiable credentials.

  4. 4

    On-device economic AI

    Trust scoring and opportunity graphs from proximity events.

  5. 5

    Blockchain & assets

    Lightweight wallet and tokenization for sovereign economic flows.

  6. 6

    Host & agent APIs

    iShareHow agents, journal, and dashboards query live graphs.

Our laboratories

Three labs. One device class.

Each laboratory produces artifacts the CEIN build needs — software hosts, hardware roots of trust, and publishable vulnerability evidence.

Host interface & economic matching

SaaS Lab

Production agent platforms, orchestration, and auditable software — the host interface where CEIN graphs meet iShareHow agents, CRM, and community tools.

Open agents platform

Hardware root of trust & proximity

Devices Lab

Secure elements, MCU firmware, BLE/UWB proximity, and field deployment — the hardware path from STM32 prototypes to pocketable sovereign nodes.

Explore devices lab

Evidence, equity & publishable data

Assessment Lab

Publishable methods on security, social, and economic risk for underserved communities — the evidence layer that makes CEIN pilots citeable and policy-ready.

Open research journal

Build readiness

From prototype kit to field nodes

Phased path aligned with the dissertation track — start building now while scholarly depth compounds.

Phase 1

Prototype & first paper

STM32 + secure element + BLE/UWB kit, SSI basics, agent matching demo, CAP-aligned security evaluation.

Phase 2

Protocols & pilots

Cryptographic proximity firmware, graph AI models, full SSI + blockchain interface, controlled community pilots.

Phase 3

Field nodes & product line

Optimized nodes, real-world deployments, dissertation evaluation, path to manufacturing and Labs product integration.

Institute programs

Summit, foundation, and journal — ready for the build

AI Agent Research Summit

Scholarly convening where agent systems, field evidence, and CEIN research meet an open audience.

Foundation Labs

Apprenticeship-linked field research and workforce pathways that ground the Labs in community revitalization.

Research Journal

Public papers, briefs, datasets, and lab reports — what Lab Desk graduates when ready to share.

Lab Desk

Private multi-track notebook: computer engineering (CEIN), partner law & policy, community SaaS, and Trust API / UNY–OWNii pilot evidence.

Evidence Canvas

Live research graph: thesis → studies → pilots → capabilities → grants → costs → transparency snapshots.

Chief Research Scientist

Lab to the streets — with publishable rigor

Design and evaluation of secure AI-enabled proximity-aware cryptographic identity nodes for privacy-preserving trusted economic relationships in decentralized networks.
