Proof of human hardware and softwareProof of human hardware and software

Much of the Orb is open-source and verifies an individual is a unique human, using iris imaging technology. The iris image is encoded and encrypted directly on the Orb to create unique, anonymous numeric codes, keeping user data safe while distinguishing unique humans in the age of AI.

Privacy-focused

The Orb uses data only in encrypted temporary memory (RAM) for the moment of verifying humanness and does not store them. After verifying, all data is completely deleted from the Orb and a secure, encrypted copy of the data is kept on the device. Open-source quantum-secure multi-party computation anonymizes and protects fragments of numerical codes of all Orb-verified World ID holders.

Currently developing handheld verification hardware and software:

Orb Mini.
