Abstract
A camera module includes an imaging sensor that outputs raw image sensor data representative of a scene and an imaging logic engine that processes the raw image sensor data into image data in a predetermined image format. The imaging logic engine carries out a hash function to generate a hash of the image data and adds a genesis block of a digital ledger as part of the image data so that the genesis block is part of the image data in an image file output by the camera module, the genesis block containing the hash.
