2347 results about "Ornaments" patented technology

Ornaments are traits that are used to attract mates based on physical attractiveness. These traits may help show good genes that potential mates may find desirable. Although these ornaments are usually the main strategy in order to procure a mate, they come with the cost of making the individuals more susceptible to being tracked by predators. The most notable form of ornaments comes in the ornate plumage that the peacock has in order to attract peahens; the brighter and bigger the feathers, the better chance of finding a mate.

Authentication of documents and articles by moiré patterns

The present invention relies on the moiré patterns generated when superposing a base layer made of base band patterns and a revealing line grating (revealing layer). The produced moiré patterns comprise an enlargement and a transformation of the individual patterns located within the base bands. Base bands and revealing line gratings may be rectilinear or curvilinear. When translating or rotating the revealing line grating on top of the base layer, the produced moiré patterns evolve smoothly, i.e. they may be smoothly shifted, sheared, and possibly be subject to further transformations. Base band patterns may incorporate any combination of shapes, intensities and colors, such as letter, digits, text, symbols, ornaments, logos, country emblems, etc. . . . . They therefore offer great possibilities for creating security documents and valuable articles taking advantage of the higher imaging capabilities of original imaging and printing systems, compared with the possibilities of the reproduction systems available to potential counterfeiters. Since the revealing line grating reflects a relatively high percentage of the incident light, the moiré patterns are easily apparent in reflective mode and under normal illumination conditions. They may be used for the authentication of any kinds of documents (banknotes, identity documents, checks, diploma, travel documents, tickets) and valuable articles (optical disks, CDs, DVDs, CD-ROMs, packages for medical drugs, bottles, articles with affixed labels).

Method and apparatus for generating digital halftone images by multi color dithering

The invention provides a method and apparatus for the reproduction of color images by multi-color dithering. Multi-color dithering is an extension of bi-level dithering for halftoning an input image using as primary colors an arbitrary number of inks. The inks may comprise standard inks or non-standard inks such as non-process color inks, opaque inks, metallic inks, variable color inks and fluorescent inks. Multi-color dithering provides a solution for creating artistic multi-color dithered images, whose screen elements are made of artistic color screen shapes such as micro-letters, symbols and ornaments. When printed at high resolution and at high registration accuracy, multi-color dithering using large dither arrays incorporating artistic dither shapes provides an effective solution for preventing counterfeiting. The use of non-standard inks offers additional protection. Multi-color dithering also offers a solution for printers requiring that all inks are printed side by side, without overlaps.

Method and apparatus for image processing

The position of a body part area for a personal image in an input image is detected. According to the position of the detected body part area, the position of the origin of a coordinate system for an ornament is defined. Based on the position of the defined origin, an ornament-arranged input image is outputted. When the personal image moves in the input image, the ornament also moves following the movement of the personal image. Even when both personal image and ornament move, the ornament can be made not to interfere with the personal image. Therefore, the personal image can be clearly displayed. Moreover, the input image can be made look more interesting by synchronizing the movement of the ornament with the movement of the personal image.

Authentication of secure items by shape level lines

The disclosed method and system may be used for creating advanced protection means for various categories of documents (e.g. bank notes, identity documents, certificates, checks, diploma, travel documents, tickets) and valuable products (e.g optical disks, CDs, DVDs, CD-ROMs, prescription drugs, products with affixed labels, watches) hereinafter called “secure items”. Secure items are authenticated by shape level lines. The shape level lines become apparent when superposing a base layer comprising sets of lines and a revealing layer comprising a line grating. One of the two layers is a modified layer which embeds a shape elevation profile generated from an initial, preferably bilevel, motif shape image (e.g. typographic characters, words of text, symbols, logo, ornament). In the case of an authentic document, the outline of the revealed shape level lines are visual offset lines of the boundaries of the initial bilevel motif shape image. In addition, the intensities, respectively colors of the revealed shape level lines are the same as the intensities, respectively colors of the lines forming the base layer sets of lines. By modifying the relative superposition phase of the revealing layer on top of the base layer or vice-versa (e.g. by a translation or a rotation), one may observe shape level lines moving dynamically between the initial bilevel motif shape boundaries and shape foreground centers, respectively background centers, thereby growing and shrinking. In the case that these characteristic features are present, the secure item is accepted as authentic. Otherwise the item is rejected as suspect. Pairs of base and revealing layers may be individualized by applying to both the base and the revealing layer a geometric transformation. Thanks to the availability of a large number of geometric transformations and transformation parameters, one may create documents having their own individualized document protection. The invention also proposes a computing and delivery system operable for delivering base and revealing layers according to security document or valuable product information content. The system may automatically generate upon request an individually protected secure item and its corresponding authentication means.
