Worldcoin has expanded its digital identity system, added face biometric authentication and unveiled support for a series of popular online services.
The upgraded digital ID includes three levels. “World ID device level” is a digital ID with a lower level of assurance, being based on verification with a mobile device. For apps requiring higher assurance, “World ID Orb” builds in the assurance of humanity and uniqueness provided by iris biometrics scans with the company’s infamous proprietary scanners. “World ID Orb+” adds facial authentication through selfie biometrics to the IDs already verified with iris biometrics.
