Today, @faust is announcing Roc: a reality oracle computer that notarizes reality, onchain For the past ~3 years, we have been venturing into the great beyond at the intersection of deep tech x crypto. We’re building a new kind of hardware (from the bottom up) that is designed for Ethereum Read on below...

Back in 2020, I was building autonomous flying cars at Kitty Hawk, until that future was canceled. Then I found myself in crypto because decentralized autonomous machines are the future A world where there will be trillions of machines driving most of the TXs onchain. In that world, what does the HW / OS look like?

Today, Reality (IRL) and Onchain are like two cities with very few roads between Ethereum has limited access to IRL world, largely confined to being onchain. HW companies have forsaken crypto; we use devices that treat us like 2nd class citizens. Devs have to figure out our own oracle solutions, or not even bother

What would it look like if Ethereum could reach out to reality? What if it could see? What if it could hear? What if it could notarize our reality, onchain - at the press of a button? What would that look like?

That’s why we're building Roc - a machine that notarizes reality, onchain A HW / OS built from the bottom up to support sensors (camera, audio, etc), cryptography: (able to do sensor attestations, is a HW wallet) and a GPU that can run local AI / ML models. Plus an API that allows for devs to build apps on top of it

In a world where humanity is drowning in AI, Roc helps you build things that make us more real... E.g. You can create an app for Roc that takes deep-fake proof attested photos/videos that can prove that it is the owner. It would be verifiable thru /eas or services like @witness, or any smart contract of your choosing

Unfortunately, no one can be told what Roc is. You’re going to have to experience it for yourself. Similar to how standardizing clocks & the telegraph, unlocked railroads + industrial revolution, we believe Roc like machines IRL with private keys + Ethereum are going to unlock expanding humanity into the universe.

this is huge what’s the simplest version of the architecture of the chain of trust

We use the Zephyr RTOS + ARM TrustZone-M (which has a TEE for ARM Cortex-M). It uses Trusted Firmware-M (TF-M) project to establish a chain of trust, including a Root of Trust, secure boot, secure attestation, TF-M firmware, and the capability to run secure trusted applications within the isolated TEE w/ Zephyr
