protocol features

Building Blocks of an Open Vehicle Platform.

Device Identity

Immutable Identity Primitives Drivers, vehicles, devices, and trips have a sovereign blockchain based identity. Anyone can make public or private verifiable claims

Telemetry Data & Vehicle Commands

Secure hardware and verification logic ensure verifiable telemetry data and safe sharing of vehicle control commands (e.g., lock / unlock doors)

DCN (Dimo Canonical Name)

A public DIMO system that assigns unique domain names to vehicles, much like how traditional DNS assigns domain names to websites. This would enable...

BlockTwin

BlockTwin is a type of digital twin that utilizes blockchain technology to create an immutable, decentralized record of a physical device's data and interactions.

Data Accessibility

DIMO makes it easy for users to share and revoke access to their credentials, telemetry data, and vehicle commands.

Get started building on DIMO

  1. index.js
                                
    const dimoClient = dimo.newClient(privateKey);
    const vehicleId = dimoClient.resolve("reddy.dimo");
    const vehicle = dimoClient.getVehicle(vehicleId);
  2. index.js
                                
    const vehicle = dimoClient.getVehicle(vehicleId);
    const odometer = vehicle.getOdometer();
  3. index.js
                                
    const vehicle = dimoClient.getVehicle(vehicleId);
    const status = vehicle.doorUnlock();
  4. index.js
                                
    const vehicle = dimoClient.getVehicle(vehicleId);
    stream = vehicle.getLiveStream()
    stream.onMessage() {
    
    }
  5. index.js
                                
    const vehicle = dimoClient.getVehicle(vehicleId);
    const status = vehicle.getChargingStatus();
    if(status.isCharged()) vehicle.stopCharging();
  6. index.js
                                
    List[Trip] completedTrips = vehicle.getTripHistory((last24));
    if(completedTrips.contains(rideRequest)){
     vehicle.removeRider(rideRequest.getRider())
    }
