ROBOTICS, DRONES & AUTONOMY

GIVE THE OPERATING SURFACE A REAL IDENTITY BEFORE PHYSICAL CONSEQUENCE.

Robots, drones, autonomous vehicles and machine-operated systems can change physical state, access, custody, infrastructure and liability. ECZ-ID applies the same accountability chain: identify the real operating surfaces, establish authority and Intent, evaluate relevant state, then preserve what was recorded.

MODEL THE REAL SURFACES

Do not invent a new identity class for every machine shape.

At launch, use the canonical Passport family that matches the enduring surface being operated. A robot or autonomous system may legitimately involve more than one ECZ-ID because different accountable surfaces perform different jobs.

01

IoT Passport

Use for a connected physical device or device identity module that needs a resolvable machine identity.

02

Service & Workload Passport

Use for the enduring service or workload behind a machine-operated runtime—not a pod, replica, process or region.

03

Agent Passport

Use where an AI or agentic actor makes or proposes decisions for the organisation.

04

API Passport

Use for an API surface that agents, applications or machine systems call.

05

MCP Passport

Use when the accountable surface is an MCP server. Individual tools inside it are not separate Passports.

THE CONSEQUENCE BOUNDARY

Before. At. After.

Physical autonomy makes the distinction especially important: permission to reach a controller is not Intent, a decision is not the action, and a Receipt is not automatic proof that every real-world assertion was true.

Before

Identity, authority, delegation, Intent, relevant state, policy and constraints establish the basis for action.

At

Where configured, IntentControl can evaluate whether the proposed action should proceed. The actual machine action still runs—or does not—in the customer's system.

After

Receipts, evidence, LedgerCore and Resolver support what was recorded, integrity, retrieval and later re-check.

TRUTH BOUNDARY

Accountability infrastructure is not safety certification.

ECZ-ID does not certify a robot, drone or vehicle as safe, licensed or legally permitted to operate. Regulators, operators, insurers and relying parties retain their own obligations and judgement. ECZ-ID provides identity, authority, Intent, current-state and evidence context around the machine interaction.
