📣 Patent Filed: ROOM – Read Only Once Memory

July 31, 2025

Virginia Beach, VA — Today, QSymbolic LLC is proud to announce the official patent submission for ROOM – Read Only Once Memory, a new hardware memory primitive built for the post-quantum era.

ROOM is a secure memory architecture that enforces one-time readout using deterministic CMOS logic. Upon first access, each ROOM register collapses irreversibly, making the stored value permanently inaccessible. No reset. No reuse. No cloning.

🔐 Built for What’s Next

In conventional systems, memory is reusable by design — and that’s a problem when the data is a cryptographic key, authentication secret, or ephemeral credential. ROOM addresses this by bringing quantum-inspired collapse behavior to classical hardware.

ROOM is engineered for:

  • Air-gapped, tamper-evident key delivery
  • Post-quantum and post-algebraic cryptography
  • Secure embedded provisioning in zero-trust environments
  • Symbolic entropy handling and deterministic collapse control
  • Emulation of QKD-like guarantees in purely classical logic

Using a suite of patented primitives — including collapse enforcement, metadata-gated access, and entangled register behavior — ROOM establishes a new security baseline for sensitive memory.

📄 What’s Included in the Patent

Filed as a Continuation-in-Part (CIP) of the Triangle Symbolic Processing Framework (TSPF), the ROOM patent application includes:

  • Collapse Primitive: Memory registers that self-destruct on read, enforceable in the same clock cycle
  • Metadata Primitive: Registers that conditionally permit readout based on time, identity, or phase
  • Entanglement Primitive: Interdependent memory collapse across registers for structured correlation
  • Hardware-based key exchange workflows for post-quantum delivery
  • Real-world implementation details in CMOS, ASIC, and FPGA

The system is suitable for integration into hardware security modules (HSMs), trusted platform modules (TPMs), secure microcontrollers, and defense-grade embedded platforms.

🧩 No Trademark, by Design

QSymbolic is not trademarking the word ROOM — intentionally.

We believe ROOM should become an industry-standard term, like RAM or ROM. We invite researchers, engineers, and hardware vendors to adopt the term ROOM to describe any read-once, collapse-enforced memory structure — with or without our reference design.

ROOM is not just a technology. It’s a behavior.

⚙️ What Comes Next

Now that the patent has been filed, QSymbolic will begin:

  • Demonstrating ROOM on FPGA
  • Publishing the ROOM specification and open HDL components
  • Preparing submissions to peer-reviewed venues (e.g., NDSS 2026)
  • Exploring licensing and partnership opportunities in secure hardware sectors

ROOM will also anchor QSymbolic’s upcoming secure key exchange appliance and memory security IP core offerings.
