    摘要: An optical article printed on a substrate may include an organic binder; and a plurality of reflective magnetic platelets provided in the organic binder, wherein the plurality of reflective magnetic platelets are substantially aligned in accordance with at least part of a surface of revolution, and wherein the plurality of reflective magnetic platelets are aligned to cause a first reflective effect of the optical article when the substrate is rotated around a first axis and to cause a second reflective effect of the optical article when the substrate is rotated around a second axis, wherein the first reflective effect is different from the second reflective effect.

    摘要: A determination system includes an imaging data acquisition device that captures an image of a printed surface of a printed product to acquire imaging data of the captured image, and a determination device that determines, based on the imaging data, a printing method used to produce the printed surface of the printed product for which the image is captured by the imaging data acquisition device. The determination device selects a plurality of determination areas included in the captured image, acquires determination data based on a line-segment image included in each of the determination areas, compares the acquired determination data between two determination areas, and acquires, based on a result of the comparison, a determination value for determining a printing method used to produce the printed surface of the printed product, and determines, based on the determination value, a printing method used to produce the printed surface of the printed product.

    摘要: A redundantly printed security-enhanced document, printing method and system ensure the meaning of the information imparted by variable indicia printed by redundant printing on the document with removable scratch-off coatings. By printing the variable indicia with multiple colors, redundancy and integrity of the intended indicia is achieved. Additionally, inverted color indicia countermeasures to pinprick attacks are also disclosed. The redundantly printed document, methods and systems enhance the overall appearance of the redundantly printed document, and reduce possible consequences resulting from misprinted variable indicia. The resultant printed process color indicia maintains a grayscale equivalent level of a process color greater than or equal to the measured grayscale equivalent level of the substrate surface plus an additional contrast delta of 15%.

    摘要: An example container includes: structure having an interior and an exterior. The interior is to contain an electronic product. The exterior comprises: a first label of a first type of polychromatic ink to be activated at a first wavelength; and a second label of a second type of polychromatic ink to be activated at a second wavelength different from the first wavelength; the first label to indicate a first set of features to be configured at the electronic product using a first wireless signal; and the second label to indicate a second set of features to be configured at the electronic product using a second wireless signal. The structure is transparent to the first wireless signal and the second wireless signal.

    摘要: Disclosed is a method for manufacturing a multilayer data medium (1), in which method: a multilayer data medium, including at least one transparent security layer (16), and at least one marking layer (17), sensitive to electromagnetic-marking radiation (5), are selected; the transparent security layer (16) includes at least one semi-transparent printed image including at least one thermochromic dye; at least one marking (30) is made using the electromagnetic-marking radiation, through the printed image; the semi-transparent printed image reveals, in a first state referred to as the inactivated state, at least one semi-transparent visible pattern that makes it possible, after the marking step, to view the marking (30) through the image, the pattern not being visible in a second state, referred to as the activated state. The invention also relates to a multilayer data medium (1).
