Overview

MOSIP Decode is a virtual hackathon designed to encourage contributions to MOSIP’s open source platform from the student community!

As a globally-recognised Digital Public Good, MOSIP strives to create inclusive and trustworthy digital identity systems for rapidly developing countries. Countries adapt MOSIP with the help of local experts to customise the platform to suit their requirements, but these needs are diverse and have endless potential for solutions.

This is where MOSIP Decode comes in.

This hackathon offers participants the opportunity to learn from industry experts and propose solutions for national digital infrastructure that is currently being implemented in over 25 countries across Asia Pacific, Africa, and Latin America and the Caribbean. 

Develop code that aligns with MOSIP’s guiding principles of modularity, scalability, security, privacy, and open standards with no vendor lock-ins. Join our mission of Empowering Lives, One Unique ID at a Time.

Themes

01 Multiple Inji User Profiles on Shared Devices

Build a working APK, allowing families to tailor a centralised digital wallet for multiple individual profiles.

Complexity Level: High

Many families share a single phone among multiple members, particularly with children or senior citizens. This creates a need for the ability to switch user profiles within a single application, enabling personalised preferences and settings tailored to each individual.

The goal is to enhance the Inji Mobile Wallet to support multiple user profiles. Users should be able to create, customise, and manage their profiles, designed to securely store their Verifiable Credentials (VCs). Face authentication will be used to ensure that only the rightful owner of each profile can access their VCs.

02 Support for Blockchain-Based DIDs in Inji Certify

Expand the discoverability of verifiable credentials to address challenges of trust and security.

Complexity Level: High

There is a growing preference worldwide for blockchain-based Decentralised Identifiers (DIDs), that provide more security and reliability than verifiable credentials with web-based DIDs. Inji Certify currently uses a web-based Decentralised Identifier (DID) method for public key discovery.

To meet global requirements for trustworthy technology, participants must extend Inji Certify’s functionality to include blockchain-based DID methods, compatible with well-known blockchains. The system should provide the necessary APIs for creating these DIDs using keys stored in the vault, with public keys discoverable through universal resolvers.

03 Adding Revocation Feature in Inji

Build a mechanism that ensures interoperability, strengthens data security, and enhances the Inji stack.

Complexity Level: Medium

Inji is a comprehensive digital Verifiable Credentials (VCs) stack, designed to foster a high-trust, low-cost ecosystem. The revocation of VCs is crucial to maintaining the integrity, security, and accuracy of this system, ensuring that the credentials in circulation are trustworthy and up-to-date. 

Participants are challenged to implement a privacy-preserving revocation mechanism for Inji, in line with open standards.

04 Optical Character Recognition (OCR) for Digital Forms

Innovate the way people handle data extraction and digitisation to fill important forms.

Complexity Level: Medium

The process of copying information from physical documents or images to fill digital forms is often time-consuming and prone to human error. Build a solution that utilises Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology to automatically extract text from scanned documents or images, and accurately populates the corresponding fields in digital forms.

The solution should be capable of handling various document types – from ID cards to handwritten text – while ensuring high accuracy in text extraction and data entry. Additionally, it should have a user-friendly interface that simplifies the workflow and reduces the time and effort required to manually enter data.

05 Inji based Digital Hall Ticket System for Students

Develop a secure, verifiable, and efficient ID solution for examinations around the world.

Complexity Level: Low

Losing physical hall tickets can force students to navigate time-consuming re-issuance processes and possibly pay extra fees. Solve that problem by creating a digital hall ticket system, offering a secure, instant, and hassle-free solution for students.

Participants are challenged to leverage MOSIP's Inji Stack components to modernise the traditional hall ticket process, using Verifiable Credentials (VCs) and QR codes accessible on smartphones. The solution will be built for two key phases: hall ticket generation by students, and subsequent verification by the invigilators at examination halls.

06 WhatsApp-Based Notification System for MOSIP

Create an accessible, efficient notification system for users of MOSIP-based ID systems around the world.

Complexity Level: Low

As one of the most widely-used messaging platforms, WhatsApp can enhance user engagement with national ID and improve the effectiveness of notifications. Develop a notification system that utilises WhatsApp to share critical updates, send alerts to users, and facilitates simple queries around MOSIP-based ID systems.

Participants are challenged to enhance the existing MOSIP notification system to include interactive, real-time WhatsApp notifications. This will involve integrating WhatsApp's messaging features with MOSIP's platform APIs.

07 eSignet Attendance Application

Develop a mobile solution that enables time- and cost-efficient data collection programmes.

Complexity Level: Low

The staff of governments and humanitarian organisations around the world often travel to remote geographical locations to collect data on the residents’ health, education, and more. The lack of a systematic approach to ensure the availability of residents introduces several challenges of resource management, scheduling, and efficiency.

Develop a mobile application that integrates with eSignet for user authentication and is utilised for managing user attendance. User details such as name, time, location should be captured and displayed through a dynamic dashboard on the server side.
