Building New Orb For The Better World ID – Open-Architecture Biometric AI Station for Decentralized Identity
Summary: This project provides an open hardware blueprint for a modular biometric AI station combining FBI-grade biometrics, edge AI, and cryptographic sovereignty. It enables reproducible identity research with privacy-preserving workflows and integrates biological sampling with decentralized identity standards.
What it does
The station offers a transparent, modular "Field System" using Commercial Off-The-Shelf components to build configurable biometric rigs. It supports on-device biometric processing and local Large Language Models to maintain data privacy, while integrating cryptographic proofs and secure genomic data workflows.
Who it's for
It targets computer scientists, hardware engineers, sociologists, bio-ethicists, and medical researchers focused on identity research, privacy technologies, and biological data collection.
Why it matters
It addresses the lack of accessible, reproducible biometric hardware by providing a customizable platform that supports privacy-by-design and decentralized identity research outside closed vendor ecosystems.
