Product Identification using Blockchain

Abstract

Counterfeiting has become an increasingly prevalent issue in the context of globalization and the rapid advancement of technology. To combat this problem, various industrial producers and distributors have been working towards enhancing the transparency of their supply chain operations. In this paper, we propose a decentralized Blockchain-based application system (DApp) that can be used to detect counterfeit goods in the supply chain system. We leverage the security and immutability of data stored on the Blockchain to facilitate the transfer of ownership of goods. Our proposed system issues a Quick Response (QR) code for each product, which is connected to the Blockchain and can be scanned by customers to verify the distribution and ownership information of the goods. This paper presents the design and implementation of our DApp system and evaluates its effectiveness in detecting and preventing counterfeit goods in the supply chain. The results of our experiments demonstrate the feasibility and potential of using Blockchain technology in combating counterfeiting.
