W3C Decentralised Identifiers (DIDs) are a new type of globally unique identifier designed to enable verifiable, decentralised digital identity. As a formal web standard published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), the DID architecture is a foundational component for building a more secure and user-centric internet.
Unlike traditional identifiers such as email addresses or usernames, DIDs are not tied to any centralised registry or company. This means that individuals and organisations can create and control their own identifiers, giving them "self-sovereign" control over their digital identities. The core of the system is the DID Document, a JSON file that contains the cryptographic keys and service endpoints associated with a DID. This document is stored on a distributed ledger or other decentralised network, allowing for secure and verifiable interactions.
The Hedera Consensus Service (HCS) is used to create a tamper-proof and auditable log of all DID-related events, such as creation, updates, and revocation.

Twigital is a decentralized application (dApp) that enables users to create tokenized digital twins of physical objects. These digital twins are represented as 3D objects, which can be minted as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on the Hedera network. The platform allows users to memorialize objects in the Web3 space.
The Twigital mobile application is available on iOS where it uses photogrammetry to capture real-world objects. Users can generate 3D models of objects from photographs. The app guides users through this process with detailed instructions and, once created, these 3D models can be minted as NFTs.
A key feature of Twigital is its integration with the Hedera network. Users connect their Hedera wallets to manage digital assets. This enables easy valuation, trading, and viewing of NFT details. The assets created are content-addressed using interplanetary file system(IPFS), providing unique identification for each digital twin. These unique twins can then be linked to minted NFTs. Twigital covers the transaction fees for creating these NFTs, which are factored into the cost of using the service.
