🆔 Polygon — Best Use of Polygon ID

Project Description

The project aims to address incentivizing user networks via access to a variety of member-only benefits. A primary use case is incentivizing individuals to participate in environmental service. Here's how it works:

[1] Trash Cleanup & Video Verification: Volunteers who engage in trash pickup can upload videos as evidence. An AI model processes these videos to ensure authenticity. This model verifies that the uploaded videos indeed showcase trash pickup activities.

[2] Point-based Reward System: Upon successful verification, volunteers are awarded points proportionate to their efforts. This not only gamifies the process but also provides tangible rewards for eco-friendly actions.

[3] Polygon ID & Access to Services: Once a volunteer accumulates enough points, they can claim their Polygon ID. This ID acts as a passport to a range of services. The services are categorized into different tiers – Tier I, Tier II, and Tier III, with each tier offering its own set of unique rewards. Some notable services include: (a) AI chatbot for personalized financial planning advice, (b) exclusive invites to private events with provisions like travel stipends for global gatherings, and (c) access to a specialized Uniswap liquidity pool that's reserved only for these dedicated volunteers.

How it's Made

Our project is an amalgamation of many technologies, with each piece chosen for its distinctive capability and fit:

(I) Worldcoin: The challenge was to authenticate the genuine participation of individuals and Worldcoin provided the solution with its "proof of humanity" feature. It helped us ensure real individuals were participating, creating an immediate barrier against bot interventions.

(II) Filecoin: The backbone of our verification process is the video evidence uploaded by volunteers. Given the massive data footprint of these video files, we needed robust storage and computation capabilities. Filecoin seamlessly catered to this need, offering efficient storage.

(III) Polygon ID: Authenticating volunteers' achievements was another hurdle. With Polygon ID, we issue digital credentials, creating a unique digital identity for our volunteers. This identity then acted as a gateway to our Uniswap v4 liquidity pool, ensuring exclusivity.

(IV) Uniswap v4 Hook: Integrating with Uniswap v4 via its hook allowed us to create an exclusive liquidity pool. The pool access is limited only to volunteers with a verified Polygon ID.

(V) AI Verification: The uniqueness of our project was ensuring genuineness in the volunteer work, and that's where our AI model became indispensable. Trained on the Kinetic 400(441 - garbage collecting) dataset, it scans through the video uploads, identifying and verifying legitimate trash pick-up actions.

Piecing the technologies together, the flow initiates with a volunteer's action captured on video. The video is stored on Filecoin and then processed by our AI model. Once verified, the system updates the volunteer's points, and upon reaching a threshold, a Polygon ID is issued. This ID opens up a treasure trove of rewards, including access to the exclusive Uniswap liquidity pool.

A notably innovative aspect was the fusion of AI with environmental action. By automating the verification of trash pickups through AI, we streamlined the validation process, allowing for scalability and wider participation without compromising on authenticity.
