Abstract: A system and method are provided for constructing an optical device having a substrate and a filter layer provided on a first side of the substrate. The filter layer includes features that define a first image and gaps between the features. An ink layer is provided on the filter layer and includes first image ink deposited in substantial alignment with the features of the filter layer and a second image ink deposited within the gaps. The first image ink renders a first image in reflective light and the second image ink renders a second image in transmitted light. According to one example, a second filter layer may be provided on a second side of the substrate such that features of the filter layer and features of the second filter layer may be at least partially out of vertical alignment in order to define a plurality of light ray entry angles.

Abstract: The present invention is a multi-section lens (14, 16) for decoding at least two encodings, as a function of the parameters of a lens section (12, 18), of at least on latent image (20), as implemented by a software program on a computer system, for security measures such as determining the authenticity of an object. The encoded latent image (20) is a function of distinct lenticular parameters which may include the frequency and lens radius of curvature (12, 18) of a particular lens section. Each section (14, 16) has a corresponding encoded latent image thus allowing for multiple latent images (20) and multiple encodings making it virtually impossible to counterfeit the encoded object (24) or the decoding apparatus.

Abstract: An automated method for authorizing and controlling the production of optically encoded images is provided. The method comprises receiving from a user data processor a request for authorization to produce an encoded image (s110). The authorization request includes user-supplied data comprising at least one authentication image file. The method further comprises determining whether the user is authorized to produce an encoded image using the user-supplied data (s140). Responsive to a determination that the user is authorized to produce an encoded image using the user-supplied data, an authentication image signature is generated from the at least one authentication image file using an image signature algorithm and a positive authorization response is returned to the user data processor. The positive authorization response includes the authentication image signature (s170).

Abstract: A method of authenticating objects is disclosed. At least one object having a print region with printed material contained thereon is provided. The printed material of the print region includes a layer of non-visible indicia which emits at least one wavelength of light outside a visible range of an electromagnetic spectrum when stimulated with electromagnetic radiation. An optical image of the object is recorded with an imaging device to make the non-visible indicia perceivable to a human eye. The perceived image is then compared against expected authentication indicia to authenticate the object. A system for authenticating objects includes at least one imaging device to record optical images of objects having a layer of non-visible indicia and to render the non-visible indicia perceivable to a human eye. The system also includes a central authentication system in communication with the imaging device to receive optical images recorded by the imaging device.
