System Of A Down drummer John Dolmayan has added the title of inventor to his resume. The politically outspoken musician has long been known to pursue interests outside of the band, with the comics industry being one of his primary passions. To that end, he has his run his Torpedo Comics shop for numerous years, while also penning several comics.
Now Dolmayan has shown off his first patent, an app-oriented reusable shipping container, which requires a layer of authentication to be opened.
That patent is described as being, ‘a shipping container that includes numerous multi-factor authentication (MFA) tie ins to provide added security to the container. In some embodiments, the shipping container is associated with a mobile user profiles within a mobile application. A retailer makes a sale, then, using a mobile application, associates the container with the destination address and the MFA details associated with the buyer’s mobile application account. Once the container is loaded up, the container will not open again except for the buyer using the buyer’s MFA authentication credentials.’
Dolmayan said of his invention:
“So excited to get my first patent! It’s a long process but being an inventor has been rewarding in so many ways ! This is a reusable , rechargeable and completely secure shipping container that can replace cardboard boxes. It can eliminate massive amounts of waste and is applicable to all aspects of delivery including food and collectables.”
It is unclear if and when Dolmayan intends to push the container to production.
