- In this episode, Tomorrow Lab collaborates with Futurist and Science Fiction Author, Karl Schroeder. Karl writes about alternate futures and inventive products that fit in to those futures, incorporating technologies like blockchain, cryptocurrency, GPS location, and Internet of Things connectivity (IoT). Pulling from Karl’s writing, he came to the team with an idea about gamifying the trips that people take day-to-day, and rewarding them for transporting a box for someone else along the way.
The team from Tomorrow Lab gets to work to turn this into a potentially genius design by generating multiple sketches, schematics, and prototypes that leverage Digi-Key’s massive electronic component selection.

As in the book Stealing Worlds, you as a player in some online or augmented-reality game would receive an offer for a quest when you're physically near the package someone has tied somewhere. Using the phone app, you can look inside the box, but also find out what achievement doing this task will give you in the game. Maybe it turns out that you're going to be near the box's intended destination anyway, so why not? You accept the quest, the box unlocks so that you can transport it, and a combination of GPS and acceptance by the recipient at the other end unlocks your achievement (while unlocking the actual box for them). That's the Courier Commons.
Put a link to the EC film in the description
Nice!
Good to see they are introducing the blockchain technologies.
Device actuation over blockchain will be great for tracking equipment and assets.
where can i get one of those eletronic film used in the box?
From Digi-Key, The best website in the world!
What a relief, about time.
We need a link to the film!
We are working internally on carrying a product that's comparable to the smart film used in this project. For now, we've got this smart glass from Adafruit that would be equally as fun to play around with. www.digikey.com/short/v40r4v0c
