We want to study the adaptability of blockchain technology on IoT devices. In this paper we studied Hyperledger Sawtooth adaptability on a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ depending on the requirements of a special use case described by our industrial partner Renault. In addition to the study of Hyperledger Sawtooth adaptability, we modified the model of the BCM2837 architecture on SystemC-TLM. This model is known as the ”heart” of the Raspberry Pi 3 B+. By our knowledge, this work conducts to the first IoT architecture able to interact with others by using a Hyperledger Sawtooth blockchain. By using this modification we could also obtain a significant gain, an acceleration of 112 for SHA-256 and 293 for SHA-512 cryptographic algorithms.
