U.S. Patent 11076135 was awarded on July 27, 2021 and is entitled “Blockchain-based trustless date verifiable video capture.” The first named inventor is Daniel Hugh Broaddus of Evanston, IL. The abstract contains an overview of the patent disclosure:

A host system may initiate a multiple node exchange of selected values to generate a random selection. The structure of the exchange may allow later verification that no single node had control of the generation of the random selection. Accordingly, the random selection may be unknown prior to the exchange. The host system may then provide the random selection to the device for integration of the random selection during the capture of video. The video may be recorded to a blockchain. Because of the integration with the random selection, the video may be date verifiable, such that the video can be verified to be created after the random selection and before recordation to the blockchain.
