| 20090102179 | COUNTERFEIT PROOF LABELS HAVING AN OPTICALLY CONCEALED PROGRESSIVE SHIFTING SECURITY SAFETY SYMBOL FOR QUICK VISUAL IDENTIFICATION UTILIZING A MOBILE PHONE FOR ONLINE VERIFICATION - The prevention of counterfeiting labels for various products is addressed by introducing counterfeit proof labels having an optically concealed, invisible progressive shifting security safety symbols for quick identification. The label is printed on a high-resolution micro-optic photo chromogenic material. A multiple number of images of an optically compressed security safety symbol are printed on the focal plane along the linear optical center of each micro-lenticule across the entire area or a small portion of the label. Due to the optical effect of the micro-optic, the complete security safety symbol is not clearly visible at normal viewing distance. When viewing the label directly or using the camera of a mobile phone at a close-up distance or slightly bending the label, each micro-lenticule within the viewing angle projects and magnifies a small section of the compressed security safety symbol on the surface of the micro-lenticules to reassemble the complete original image of the security safety symbol for identification. | 04-23-2009 |
