Utilizing a One Person One Account (1P1A) framework, it seeks to ensure genuine user engagement and minimize data exposure.  \n  \nSolo intends to eliminate bot interference and AI contamination by verifying real humans during interactions with [decentralized applications (dApps)](https://iq.wiki/wiki/decentralized-application) through a zkHE biometric system, balancing privacy and accuracy.  \n  \nFor users, Solo offers seamless verification, enhanced privacy, and accountable anonymity. For projects, it aims to prevent bots and fake accounts, ensure quality data, and provide continuous verification during [dApp](https://iq.wiki/wiki/decentralized-application) usage.[\\[1\\]](#cite-id-eguffkc8vmq)  \n  \n## Continuous Verification  \n  \nSolo’s continuous verification system aims to ensure that [dApp](https://iq.wiki/wiki/decentralized-application) users are real by requiring periodic re-verification and automatic logouts. It supports all mobile devices and seeks to avoid hardware limitations such as iris scanning.  \n  \nFor [Web3](https://iq.wiki/wiki/web3) gaming, the system is intended to prevent cheating and support fair play. In data labeling, it aims to confirm that tasks are completed by humans, thereby maintaining the integrity of AI models.

It is designed to manage and verify biometric data securely, including biometric distances and vectors. SoloChain operates on top of a Layer-1 [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) like [Ethereum](https://iq.wiki/wiki/ethereum), seeking to improve privacy and efficiency in handling sensitive data and proofs.[\\[1\\]](#cite-id-eguffkc8vmq)  \n![Screenshot 2024-08-04 at 19.10.23.png](https://ipfs.everipedia.org/ipfs/QmbGpgG3S5NJCburjJML1oLRoNBzdbcH7QADksP5JjAGvZ)  \n  \n# Architecture  \n  \n## ZKHE Verification  \n  \nSolo's platform relies on a zkHE verification architecture, supported by SoloChain, a privacy-focused [Layer-2](https://iq.wiki/wiki/layer-2) solution. This system uses Pedersen Commitment Homomorphic Encryption, [zero-knowledge proofs](https://iq.wiki/wiki/zero-knowledge-proofs-zkps), and AI analysis to enable continuous verification of real users on any mobile device, aiming to balance scalability with privacy.[\\[1\\]](#cite-id-eguffkc8vmq)  \n  \n### Groth 616 zk-SNARK ZKP  \n  \nGroth 16 zk-SNARK [ZKP](https://iq.wiki/wiki/zero-knowledge-proofs-zkps) aims to verify [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain) transactions while keeping user data private. It uses recursive [ZKP](https://iq.wiki/wiki/zero-knowledge-proofs-zkps), combining Pedersen commitment-based homomorphic encryption with Groth 16 zk-SNARK, to minimize blockchain overhead during encrypted computations. This approach seeks to maintain data privacy and confirm computation integrity without disclosing details.[\\[1\\]](#cite-id-eguffkc8vmq)  \n  \n### Pedersen Commitment-Based Homomorphic Encryption  \n  \nPedersen Commitment-based homomorphic encryption aims to ensure data confidentiality by keeping biometric data encrypted throughout verification, thus protecting personal information during computations. It also seeks to reduce computational demands off-chain by normalizing biometric data formats, which simplifies [ZKP](https://iq.wiki/wiki/zero-knowledge-proofs-zkps) circuit designs.[\\[1\\]](#cite-id-eguffkc8vmq)  \n  \n### FIDO  \n  \nFIDO is an international standard for biometric verification and cryptographic key management.
