COVIR: Using Blockchain technology to ensure a safer world

In our present generation, it's common knowledge that with the advent of technology, robots are going to replace many humans in their jobs, as they are faster, efficient and lack the human elements.
This process has been resisted by a lot but with the Coronavirus outbreak is gradually speeding up the process.

Martin Ford, a futurist who focuses on artificial intelligence and robotics and their impact on the job market, society and economy once said

"People usually say they want a human element to their interactions but Covid-19 has changed that”

As such, companies are now bringing about technological innovations on how to utilize robots to increase social distancing and do tasks that will reduce the direct interaction of humans to the Covid-19 virus.

OCTOPUS ROBOTS, a French based A.I company has shown a great promise to deliver the world to the future as they design, manufacture and market mobile, autonomous, intelligent and modular robots that can perform specific tasks. They develop futuristic robots that are intended for specific applications in a wide variety of industries such as Healthcare, Defense, Surveillance, transportation, Agro-food, and numerous others. One of their most innovative products is the Octopus Biosafety.

Octopus Biosafety

This is an Artificial intelligence solution majorly used for the disinfection of public buildings (airports, supermarkets, cinemas, e.t.c) and industrial sites. The Octopus Biosafety robot was developed in 2014 in order to tackle, treat and prevent microbial contamination in the event of a pandemic. It makes use of dry fog that can reach and disinfect areas that are hidden and inaccessible. With the use of this robot, it will limit the exposure of human operators to the microbial agent. It also is equipped with cameras and sensors that will ensure the work is done effectively and it's time saving.
This is where COVIR comes into play.

Introducing COVIR-io

With the rise of the blockchain technology and it's integration into numerous use cases, OCTOPUS ROBOTS created a partnership with COVIR that will allow for the use of the blockchain technology in the Octopus Biosafety. This gave rise to the COVIR project and it allowed for the tokenization of the Octopus Biosafety robot licensing rights on the Tezos Blockchain. As such, it's license fees will be digitized and with the use of smart contacts, made the whole process automated and ensured the payment of royalties.
As a result of this process, investors on the COVIR platform will get license rights, finance the production of the Octopus Biosafety systems and subsequently be paid royalties in the form of cryptocurrency by the automated smart contracts.

The COVIR Token (CVR)

This is the native cryptocurrency of the COVIR platform and it's based on the Tezos Blockchain technology (XTZ). It has a ticker of CVR and it's used for all internal transactions done on the platform as well as payment of royalties.

Currently, the COVIR.io is conducting an IEO on the Bitforex Exchange and can be accessed by clicking here

Conclusion

The rise of Artificial Intelligence and Robotics has created a lot of mixed reactions in a lot as its feared to take over human jobs and bring about unemployment. But with the coming of the COVIR.io platform, it creates an arena where we can earn while robots do jobs for us while ensuring our safety during the Covid19 pandemic.
