Blockchain is a chain data structure that connects and combines data blocks sequentially in chronological order, and cryptographically ensures that the data blocks cannot be tampered with or forged. Each block in the blockchain is linked to the previous block by including the encrypted hash of the immediately preceding block in the blockchain. Each block also includes a timestamp, a cryptographic hash of the block, and one or more transactions. The transaction that has been verified by the nodes of the blockchain network is hashed and a Merkle tree is formed. In the Merkle tree, the data at the leaf nodes is hashed, and for each branch of the Merkle tree, all the hash values of the branch are concatenated at the root of the branch. The above processing is performed on the Merkle tree until the root node of the entire Merkle tree. The root node of the Merkle tree stores hash values representing all data in the Merkle tree. When a hash value claims to be a transaction stored in the Merkle tree, it can be quickly verified by judging whether the hash value is consistent with the structure of the Merkle tree.

The blockchain network is a network of computing nodes used to manage, update and maintain one or more blockchain structures. In this specification, the blockchain network may include a public blockchain network, a private blockchain network, or a consortium blockchain network.

In the public blockchain network, the consensus process is controlled by the nodes of the consensus network. For example, there may be thousands of entities in a public blockchain network for collaborative processing, and each entity operates at least one node in the public blockchain network. Therefore, the public blockchain network can be considered as a public network of participating entities. In some examples, most entities (nodes) must sign each block in sequence, and add the signed block to the blockchain of the blockchain network. Examples of public blockchain networks may include specific peer-to-peer payment networks.

The public blockchain network supports public transactions. Public transactions are shared among all nodes in the public blockchain network and stored in the global blockchain. A global blockchain refers to a blockchain that is replicated across all nodes. In order to reach a consensus (for example, agree to add a block to the blockchain), a consensus agreement is implemented in the public blockchain network. Examples of consensus protocols include but are not limited to: proof-of-work (POW), proof-of-stake (POS), and proof-of-authority (POA).

Private blockchain networks are provided for specific entities. The read and write permissions of each node in the private blockchain network are strictly controlled. Therefore, a private blockchain network is usually also called a permissioned network, which restricts who is allowed to participate in the network and the level of network participation (for example, only in certain transaction situations). In a private blockchain network, various types of access control mechanisms can be used (for example, existing participants vote to add new entities, regulatory agencies control permissions, etc.).

The alliance blockchain network is private among participating entities. In the alliance blockchain network, the consensus process is controlled by authorized nodes. For example, a consortium composed of several (for example, 10) entities (for example, financial institutions, insurance companies) can operate a consortium blockchain network, and each entity operates at least one node in the consortium blockchain network. Therefore, the consortium blockchain network can be considered as a private network of participating entities. In some examples, each participating entity (node) must sign each block in sequence and add the block to the blockchain. In some examples, each block may be signed by a subset of participating entities (nodes) (for example, at least 7 entities), and the block may be added to the blockchain.

Fig. 1 shows a schematic diagram of an example environment 100 of an embodiment of the present specification. As shown in FIG. 1, the example environment 100 allows entities to participate in the blockchain network 102. The blockchain network 102 may be, for example, a public blockchain, a private blockchain, or a consortium blockchain blockchain network. The example environment 100 may include

The computing device 104 may be (or include) a web server for providing browser functions, and the web server may provide visual information related to the blockchain network 102 based on the network 114. In some cases, the computing device 104 may not participate in block verification, but monitor the blockchain network 102 to determine when other nodes (for example, computing devices 106-108) reach a consensus, and generate corresponding blocks accordingly. Chain visual user interface.

In an embodiment, the

computing devices

110 and 112 may be client devices connected to the blockchain network 102. For example, the computing device 110 may be a terminal device at a medical institution platform, and the computing device 112 may be a terminal device at an advertising supervision platform.

Computing devices

110 and 112 may include, but are not limited to, servers, desktop computers, notebook computers, tablet computing devices, and smart phones.

In an embodiment, the computing device 104 may receive a request initiated by a client device (for example, the computing device 110 or the computing device 112) for the blockchain visualization user interface. In some cases, the nodes of the blockchain network 102 can also serve as client devices. For example, a user of the computing device 108 can use a browser running on the computing device 108 to send the aforementioned request to the computing device 104.

In response to the above request, the computing device 104 may generate a blockchain visual user interface (such as a web page) based on the stored blockchain ledger, and send the generated blockchain visual user interface to the requesting client device.

The blockchain visual user interface may be displayed on the client device (for example, it may be displayed in the user interface 116 shown in FIG. 1). When the blockchain ledger is updated, the display content of the user interface 116 can also be updated accordingly. In addition, the user's interaction with the user interface 116 may result in requests for other user interfaces, such as displaying block lists, block details, transaction lists, transaction details, account lists, account details, contract lists, contract details, or user requests for blocks The search result page generated by the implementation of the search on the chain network, etc.

FIG. 2 shows a schematic diagram of an exemplary architecture of a network 200 formed by a camera device and a blockchain network in an embodiment of the present specification. As shown in FIG. 2, the camera device 210 serves as a client of the blockchain network 214 and is connected to a server device 220 in communication. The server device 220 is a blockchain node in the blockchain network 214 or a component thereof. The connection of the server device 220 to the camera device 210 shown in FIG. 2 is only an example, and the server device 220 may also be communicatively connected with other multiple camera devices.

The imaging device 210 shoots and generates image data, such as images or videos. The imaging device 210 transmits the generated image data to the server device 220. For example, office buildings are equipped with several camera equipment to monitor the office building. These camera equipment are connected to the server equipment in the office building. The camera equipment generates video data in real time during the shooting process and sends the video data to the server equipment in real time. Store it.

The server device 220, as a blockchain node or part of the blockchain network 214, can upload the received image data to the blockchain 216 for storage, which can prevent the stored image data from being deleted or tampered with .

In addition, the image data acquisition device 230 and the image data verification device 240 can also be used as a blockchain node or a component part of the blockchain network 214, and the image data acquisition device 230 can query and acquire image data frames from the blockchain 216 The image data verification device 240 can query the corresponding first hash value from the blockchain 216, and verify the image data frame of the image data to be verified based on the first hash value.

Blockchain for storage.

FIG. 3 shows a flowchart of an example of a method for recording image data based on a blockchain according to an embodiment of the present specification. The image data recording method can be executed by a camera device. The camera device in the embodiment of this specification can include any one of a network camera, a surveillance camera, a driving recorder that can be networked, and a camera that can be networked. The following takes a network camera as an example for description. As shown in FIG. 3, at block 310, the image data output of the image sensor in the camera device is monitored.

The imaging device includes at least an optical lens and an image sensor, and the optical lens of the imaging device can be composed of several lens systems.

FIG. 4 shows a schematic diagram of an example of image data frames generated by an imaging device composed of an optical lens and an image sensor. As shown in FIG. 4, when the imaging device is shooting, the light of the subject is refracted by the optical lens, and a light signal is generated on the imaging surface of the image sensor. The image sensor collects the generated light signal, converts the collected light signal into an electrical signal, and outputs image data for rendering into a frame of image through the encoding method. For example, as shown in Figure 4, the first frame image and the 2 frames of image, 3rd frame of image and 4th frame of image. The image sensor may include CCD (charge coupled device, charge coupled device), CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor, complementary metal oxide semiconductor), film, etc.

In an example of this specification, the image data may include video data or still image data, and the still image data may be an image. When the recorded image data is still image data, one frame of image data output by the image sensor is the still image data to be recorded. When the recorded image data is video, the video composed of several image data frames output by the image sensor is the video data to be recorded.

In block 320, when the image data frame of the image data output by the image sensor is monitored, a hash calculation is performed on the output image data frame to obtain the first hash value of the image data frame.

Hash calculation is a process of converting an image data frame (provided as character string data) into a fixed-length first hash value (also provided as character string data). After performing a hash calculation on the image data frame, even if the image data frame is slightly changed, a completely different first hash value will be obtained. The first hash value is usually generated by using a hash function to perform a hash calculation on the image data frame. Examples of hash functions include, but are not limited to, Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA)-256, which outputs a 256-bit first hash value.

When the image data is video data, the video data is composed of multiple image data frames, and the image sensor sequentially outputs each image data frame according to the time sequence of shooting. When the image sensor outputs a frame of image data each time, the camera device performs a hash calculation on the output image data frame to obtain the first hash value of the image data frame, until all the image data frames constituting the video data are calculated. A hash calculation is performed. The image data frame has a one-to-one correspondence with the first hash value, and different image data frames correspond to different first hash values.

Each image data frame generated by the camera device is generated by the image sensor in the camera device, and the generated image data frame is then processed by other components in the camera device, such as combining multiple frames of images into one video. Or, store the generated image or video to a memory card or transfer it to other devices. Therefore, when the image data frame of the image data is generated and output by the image sensor, a hash calculation is performed to obtain the corresponding first hash value, which prevents the image data frame from being deleted or tampered with during subsequent processing and transmission. This makes the source of the generated image data believable.

In an example of this specification, the image data frame has image index information, and the image index information has a one-to-one correspondence with the image data frame, and the image index information can be used to query the corresponding image data frame on the blockchain.

The image index information may include time stamp information, and the time stamp information included in the image index information of each image data frame is a time stamp corresponding to the image data frame. For example, the time stamp corresponding to the image data frame is: January 25, 2020 12:3:20, then the time stamp information in the image index information of the image data frame is: January 25, 2020 12:3 20 seconds.

In another example, the image index information may also include the device identification of the camera device and/or the camera location information. The device ID can be used to indicate the camera device that generates the image data frame. In one example, each image data frame corresponds to a unique camera device, and each camera device corresponds to a unique device ID, so each image data frame corresponds to a unique device Logo.

The shooting position information can be used to indicate the shooting position corresponding to the image data frame. In an example, the camera equipment is provided with a positioning device such as GPS. When the camera equipment is shooting, the positioning device can locate each image data frame in real time to determine the shooting position of each image data frame. In an example, the shooting location information can be represented by world coordinates, or can be described by text. For example, the shooting location information is: Chaoyang District, Beijing.

In this example, each image data frame has image index information including a variety of information such as a timestamp, device identification, and camera position information, which can represent the corresponding image data frame from different dimensions. Subsequently, various information corresponding to the image data frame is recorded on the blockchain, so that the information can be used to verify the credibility of the image data frame from different dimensions, and the credibility of the image data frame is improved.

In block 330, the first hash value of the image data frame and the image index information are recorded to the blockchain.

In an example, the first hash value and image index information belonging to the same image data frame may be packaged into a block and recorded on the blockchain.

In one example, the camera device serves as a blockchain node of the blockchain network of the blockchain. After obtaining the first hash value and image index information of the image data frame, the imaging device can pack the first hash value and image index information of the image data frame into a block, which includes the image index information and the corresponding first hash value. A hash value.

Then, the block is broadcast to the consensus nodes of the blockchain network for consensus processing. After the consensus node reaches a consensus, the block is recorded on the blockchain.

FIG. 5 shows a schematic diagram of an example of the consensus process of the embodiment of the present specification. In this specification, the first hash value and image index information can be considered as transaction data in the blockchain. In the example of FIG. 5, the blockchain node where the camera device is located serves as the master node of the blockchain network (ie, the accounting node, hereinafter referred to as the master node R ₀ ).

The master node R ₀ broadcasts the packaged block to all consensus nodes in the blockchain network for consensus processing. For example, the master node R ₀ broadcasts the packaged block to the backup nodes R ₁ , R ₂ and R ₃ performs consensus processing. Note that the consensus process is shown as including 4 network nodes R ₀ , R ₁ , R ₂ and R ₃ for illustration purposes only, and the consensus process can also include any suitable number of network nodes.

In the embodiments of this specification, the consensus process can be implemented using PoW (Proof of Work Algorithm), PoS (Proof of Stake Algorithm), PBFT (Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance Algorithm), and so on. The following takes the PBFT consensus process as an example to illustrate.

As shown in FIG. 5, the process of PBFT consensus processing includes: a pre-prepare phase (Pre-prepare) 510, a preparation phase (Prepare) 520, and a confirmation phase (Commit) 530.

Specifically, at 510, the master node R ₀ packages the vehicle data fragments to be recorded in the blockchain into a message m, and then generates a pre-prepare message Pre-prepare, and in a given time interval, the pre-prepare message Pre -prepare to send (for example, broadcast) to the backup nodes R ₁ , R ₂ and R ₃ . The pre-prepare message Pre-prepare indicates that the master node R ₀ is starting the consensus process.

In the embodiment of this specification, as shown in FIG. 6, the format of the pre-prepare message Pre-prepare may be: <<PRE-PREPARE, epoch, seq, D(m), signature-p>, m, j>. Here, "PRE-PREPARE" represents the protocol identifier of the pre-prepared message, "epoch" represents _{the era when R 0 is the} master node, and "seq" represents the proposal of the required consensus (that is, adding the block to the blockchain 216) Proposal number, "D(m)" represents the summary of the request message set, "signature-p" represents _{the signature of R 0} , and "m" represents the specific content of the request message (ie, the specific content of each piece of authentication information in the block) ), and "j" represents the node ID of _{R 0.} Here, D(m) is obtained by hashing each set of authentication information in the block.

In the preparation phase 520, for each backup node (R ₁ , R ₂ or R ₃ ), after receiving the pre-prepare message Pre-prepare and detecting that the pre-prepare message is legal, the pre-prepare message Pre-prepare can be stored In the local log, a preparation message Prepare used to respond to the pre-prepare message Pre-prepare is generated, and then the generated preparation message Prepare is broadcast to other nodes. The preparation message Prepare indicates that the backup node has received the pre-prepare message Pre-prepare from the master node, and is sending a response in response to the pre-prepare message Pre-prepare.

Correspondingly, each backup node will also receive the pre-prepare message Pre-prepare sent by other backup nodes. After the backup nodes R ₁ in an example, the backup nodes R ₁ R ₀ master node receives the prepared Pre-prepare message transmitted will broadcast the resulting preparation message to the master node Prepare R _0, R ₂ and backup node R _3. Correspondingly, the backup node R ₁ will also receive the prepare message Prepare sent by the _{master node R 0} , the backup nodes R ₂ and R _3.

In this specification, the prepare message Prepare broadcast by the backup node may be used to indicate the consensus commitment made by the backup node in the preparation phase 520.

In this specification, as shown in Figure 6, the format of the preparation message Prepare may be: <PREPARE, epoch, seq, D(m), i, signature-i>. Here, "PREPARE" represents the protocol identifier of the Prepare message, "i" represents the node identifier of the node that sends the Prepare message, and "signature-i" represents the signature of the node that sends the Prepare message. The meanings of "epoch", "seq" and "D(m)" in the preparation message Prepare are the same as the meanings of "epoch", "seq" and "D(m)" in the above-mentioned pre-prepare message.

In the confirmation stage 530, when the network node receives a sufficient number of Prepare messages from other network nodes, the network node determines that a consensus has been reached. For example, if the master node R0 or the backup node R1, R2 or R3 receives Quorum (for example, 2f+1, where f represents the number of failed network nodes) preparation message Prepare, it is determined that a consensus is reached between the network nodes. Then, the master node R0 or the backup node R1, R2 or R3 will broadcast a confirmation message Commit to other nodes.

In this specification, as shown in Figure 6, the format of the confirmation message Commit may be: <COMMIT, epoch, seq, D(m), p, signature-p>. Among them, "COMMIT" represents the protocol identifier of the confirmation message Commit, "p" represents the node identifier of the node sending the confirmation message Commit, and "signature-p" represents the signature of the node sending the confirmation message Commit. The meanings of "epoch", "seq" and "D(m)" in the confirmation message Commit are the same as the meanings of "epoch", "seq" and "D(m)" in the above-mentioned pre-prepare message.

In this specification, the node sends a confirmation message Commit and stores the confirmation message Commit in the local log to indicate the consensus commitment made by the node in the confirmation phase 530.

After reaching a consensus on the initiated proposal as described above, the master node records the block in the blockchain, thereby completing the recording of the first hash value and image index information in the blockchain.

In another example, the camera device can be used as a client of the blockchain network of the blockchain, and the camera device is communicatively connected with the blockchain network. In an example, the camera device is communicatively connected with at least one blockchain node in the blockchain network.

The camera device may provide the first hash value and image index information of the image data frame to the corresponding blockchain node of the blockchain network, and the corresponding blockchain node is in communication connection with the camera device. After receiving the first hash value and image index information of the image data frame, the corresponding blockchain node can pack the first hash value and image index information into a block, which includes the first hash value and Image index information. Then, the corresponding blockchain node broadcasts the block to all consensus nodes in the blockchain node for consensus processing. After all consensus nodes reach a consensus, the block can be recorded on the blockchain.

In an example of this specification, after the first hash value and image index information of the image data frame are recorded on the blockchain, the blockchain node will feed back the first hash value and image index information of the image data frame. The storage address on the blockchain, according to the storage address, the first hash value and image index information can be queried from the blockchain.

There is an index relationship between the image index information of each image data frame, the first hash value of the image data frame, and the storage address of the image index information on the blockchain. The image index information in the index relationship may include all or part of the information.

For example, the image index information recorded on the blockchain includes time stamp information, device identification, and camera location information, and the image index information in the index relationship includes only time stamp information. The index relationship of each image data frame is the corresponding relationship between the time stamp information and the storage address. Therefore, the first hash value and image index information of the image data frame can be obtained based on the time stamp information of each image data frame The storage address on the blockchain further obtains the first hash value and image index information of the image data frame from the blockchain.

In an example, the index relationship corresponding to each image data frame is recorded in the index table according to the time stamp sequence. When verifying the video to be verified using the first hash value and image index information recorded on the blockchain, determine the timestamps corresponding to the first and last frames of the video to be verified, and then query the index table for the first and last frame of the video to be verified. One frame time stamp and the last frame time stamp. The first frame time stamp and the last frame time stamp and all image data frames in between are used to verify the video to be verified. When the image frame of the video to be verified The number is consistent with the number of image data frames queried in the index table, and when each frame is verified, the integrity of the video can be verified to ensure that the image frames in the video are not deleted or omitted.

In this example, the integrity of the video can be verified by using the index relationship recorded by the timestamp in the index table, avoiding the loss or deletion of image frames in the video, thereby improving the accuracy and credibility of subsequent video verification .

In an example of this specification, the image data frame, the first hash value of the image data frame, and the image index information can also be recorded to the blockchain. In this example, for the same image data frame, the image data frame and the corresponding first hash value and image index information can be packaged into a block and recorded on the blockchain.

Based on the image data frame recorded by the blockchain in this example, the image data acquisition device can acquire the image data frame of the image data from the blockchain. The image data acquisition device is a blockchain node in the blockchain network of the blockchain, and the image data acquisition device stores image data frames locally.

FIG. 7 shows a flowchart of an example of a method for acquiring image data based on a blockchain according to an embodiment of the present specification. As shown in FIG. 7, at 710, the image data acquisition device receives an image data acquisition request for the image data shot by the camera device from the image data requester.

In this example, the image data requester may be a client of the blockchain network, which is connected to the image data acquisition device in communication. The image data acquisition request may include time period information of the image data to be acquired. The time period information may include the time period between the time stamp of the first image data frame and the time stamp of the last image data frame in the image data to be acquired, and the time period information may also include each image data in the image data to be acquired. The time stamp information of the frame.

At 720, the image data acquisition device queries the blockchain for image data frames with time stamp information that matches the time period information. The matched image data frame is the image data frame in the image data to be acquired.

In 730, the image data acquisition device sends the queried image data frame to the image data requester for use by the image data requester.

In an example of this specification, before the first hash value of the image data frame and the image index information are recorded on the blockchain, the private key of the camera device can also be used to pair the first image data frame with respect to the image data frame. The hash value and the image index information are signed, and then the first hash value of the signed image data frame and the image index information are recorded on the blockchain.

The private key signature of the camera device prevents the first hash value and image index information from being tampered with during transmission, and further improves the credibility of the first hash value and image index information stored on the blockchain.

In addition, when the image data acquisition device acquires image data from the blockchain, it needs to use the public key of the camera device to verify the signature of each image data frame of the image data, which improves the credibility of the acquired image data frame.

When the image data verification device obtains the first hash value from the blockchain, it needs to use the public key of the camera device to verify the signature of the obtained first hash value to ensure that the first hash value is used by the camera device The generated image data frame is obtained, thereby ensuring the accuracy of image data verification.

FIG. 8 shows a flowchart of an example of a method for verifying image data based on a blockchain according to an embodiment of this specification. The image data verification device may be a blockchain node in the blockchain network of the blockchain, and the image data verification device locally stores the first hash value and image index information of the image data frame captured by the camera device.

As shown in FIG. 8, at 810, the image data verification device may receive an image data verification request for the image data shot by the camera device from the image data verification party. The image data verification request includes the image data frame of the image data to be verified and the corresponding time stamp information.

At 820, the image data verification device performs a hash calculation on the image data frame of the image data to be verified to obtain a second hash value.

In 830, the image data verification device queries the blockchain for the first hash value corresponding to the time stamp information of each second hash value.

At 840, the image data verification device compares each second hash value with the corresponding first hash value.

At 850, the image data verification device sends notification information indicating whether the image data to be verified has passed the verification to the image data verification party based on the comparison result between each second hash value and the corresponding first hash value.

When each second hash value is the same as the corresponding first hash value, the notification information used to indicate that the image data to be verified is available is sent to the image data verifier. When there is at least one second hash value in each second hash value that is different from the corresponding first hash value, sending notification information for indicating that the image data to be verified is unavailable to the image data verifier.

In the image data verification scheme shown in Figure 8, the image data to be verified can be stored in a third-party image data storage party. When the image data needs to be used as evidence, the image data can be obtained from the third-party image data storage party. And use the hash value recorded on the blockchain to verify whether the acquired image data is authentic, thereby effectively preventing the image data from being tampered with, and because the image data is not stored on the blockchain, it can save the blockchain. storage.

In another example, the image index information further includes the device identification and/or camera location information of the camera device, and the image data verification request further includes the device identification and/or camera location information corresponding to the image data frame. In addition to comparing each second hash value with the corresponding first hash value, the device identification and/or camera position information of each image data frame in the image data to be verified can also be compared with the corresponding information recorded on the blockchain. The device identification and/or camera location information are compared.

Then, based on the comparison result between each second hash value and the corresponding first hash value, and the comparison result for the device identification and/or camera position information, send to the image data verifier indicating the image data to be verified Whether to verify the notification information.

By verifying the hash value of the image data frame, it can be determined that the image data frame in the image data to be verified is credible, by verifying the device identification, it can be determined that the image data to be verified is generated by a credible device, and the image data to be verified can be determined by verifying the camera position information. Verify that the location information of the image data is credible.
