About The Orb
Proof of human" is one of the core ideas behind World, and refers to establishing an individual is both human and unique. To make these determinations possible, we developed the Orb . The Orb is an advanced biometric imaging device, custom-designed for World's launch. Orbs are deployed to a global network of independent operators, who use the device to onboard new users to the World Network. During this onboarding, the Orb generates an encoding of each user's iris and submits it to World's backend. For more details on how the Orb is part of Worlds privacy-preserving approach to Proof-of-Personhood, see the World's whitepaper. The Orb solves a fierce combination of engineering and UX challenges, centered around image quality, security, and ease-of-use. Each device has an advanced iris imaging system, designed to work consistently across real-world lighting conditions. An additional suite of sensors feeds into an onboard fraud detection system, enabling use in unsecured environments. These systems are combined in a sleek industrial design with a simple, minimalist user interface.
