In 2019, as part of the The Trusted IoT Alliance (TIoTA)'s Smart E-Mobility Challenge, Streamr partnered with Bosch Software Innovations and Riddle & Code, on a pilot project that gathered a range of electric vehicle data and shared it openly in real-time.

Despite millions of cars on our roads, detailed information from in-vehicle sensors is limited and rarely available in real-time. Most of the easily available sources of real-time road information come from Google, and is thus entirely siloed and centrally controlled. Streamr, Bosch and Riddle & Code trialled an open solution to this problem, and were proud to have won the silver medal at the TIoTA awards for their groundbreaking pilot.

The team connected a prototype Bosch ALEN gateway to a Jaguar I-PACE electric vehicle via its CAN bus. A mobile router added connectivity, and enabled a Streamr node running on a Raspberry Pi to route the realtime data to a product on the Streamr Marketplace. Riddle & Code's hardware wallet could digitally sign the data, providing a unique identity for the vehicle.
