A main object of the present disclosure is to provide a hologram structure having excellent forgery preventability and designability. The present disclosure achieves the object by providing a hologram structure comprising: a hologram layer including a reflection type hologram forming region carrying a recorded phase type Fourier transform hologram that transforms an incident light from a point light source into a desired optical image; and a vapor deposition layer formed so as to come into contact with a concavo-convex surface of the reflection type hologram forming region of the hologram layer, and a size of the reflection type hologram forming region in plan view is in a range of 5 mm square or more and 50 mm square or less.

A display including a relief structure forming layer having a major surface with a relief type diffractive structure that displays a three-dimensional object as a diffraction image; and a reflective layer at least partially covering a region of the major surface where the diffractive structure is provided. A portion of the diffractive structure in a first region includes first and second linear parts forming a first lattice, and first parts arranged in respective gaps of the first lattice. The first and second linear parts each having a solid line shape form a first pattern. A portion of the diffractive structure in a second region includes third and fourth linear parts alternately arranged in the width direction thereof. The third linear parts each having a dashed line shape and the fourth linear parts each having a dashed or dotted line shape form a second pattern.

An identification medium can be affixed to cloth or leather products by sewing. A cholesteric liquid crystal layer on which an embossed surface for forming a hologram is formed, is sandwiched between a first supporting member and a second supporting member. A mounting region that can be affixed to clothing, etc., by sewing, is formed.

A system for generating variable optical images in curable material using generic optical matrices, the system including an applicator configured to apply the curable material to a portion of a substrate supported by a carrier web; a transparent roller comprising surface elements formed on an outside surface of the transparent roller, the transparent roller being configured to form optical structures in the curable material, wherein the surface elements on the transparent roller form the optical structures in the curable material when the surface elements contact the curable material as the substrate travels over the outside surface of the transparent roller; a radiation source within or outside the transparent roller configured to cure the curable material after the optical structures are formed in the curable material; and an image generation component configured to obliterate portions of the optical structures to form a predetermined image.
