one or more processing devices;
a storage device, coupled to the one or more processing devices and storing instructions for execution by at least some of the one or more processing
devices;
a communications subsystem, coupled to the one or more processing devices, to communicate with at least one or more other nodes of a peer-to-peer network; and
item analysis components coupled to the one or more processing devices, the item analysis components comprising at least one imaging device configured to determine spectral analysis data and 3D scan data from measurements generated by the item analysis components;
wherein the one or more processing devices operate to configure the network node to:
analyze an instance of a physical item using the item analysis components to determine a unique signature for the instance, the unique signature determined using 3D spatial mapping to define the unique signature from the spectral analysis data and 3D scan data generated by the item analysis components for the physical item;
determine, using the unique signature, whether the instance of the physical item is previously recorded to a blockchain maintained by the peer-to- peer network to provide item tracking and authentication services, comparing the unique signature generated by the network node to previously recorded unique signatures using 3D spatial analysis techniques, rotating in virtual space features of the physical item defined in the unique signature to determine a match with features defined in the previously recorded unique signatures; and
record the instance of the physical item to the blockchain in response to the determining whether the instance is previously recorded.
這裡有個重點，CAFC在判斷發明是否符合專利適格性的過程中，＂說明書＂有重要的角色，以說明書為基礎＂整體來看＂申請專利範圍中描述的發明的＂焦點／主要特徵＂。
於是，在step one判斷中，CAFC同意地方法院意見，系爭專利關於以一般目的的電腦執行資料收集與儲存，執行這些功能並沒有進步的技術，判定系爭專利涉及抽象概念。
