A display includes light-scattering regions. Each of the light-scattering regions is provided with linear protrusions and/or recesses having the same longitudinal direction. The light-scattering regions are different from each other in the longitudinal direction.

An identification system for providing information regarding an associated object (5), the system comprising a carrier (3) which is provided to the object (5), and display circuitry (7) which is provided to the carrier and displays information regarding the object (5).

A vehicle identification number (VIN) label is provided. The label includes an adhesive layer; a self-destruct layer positioned on the adhesive layer; a first facestock layer positioned on the self-destruct layer; a second facestock layer positioned on the first facestock layer and defining a first window relative to the first facestock layer; and an indicia layer with a first vehicle identification number (VIN) within the first window of the second facestock layer.

An IV disposable time indication device includes one of a tube and a slot containing a volume of gel, wherein the gel is configured to evaporate at a determined rate of time upon activation by exposure to ambient air. A seal is configured to prevent contact of the gel with ambient air. One or more time indicators are disposed on the device, wherein evaporation of the gel is configured to provide a visual indication of a passage of time after activation. Methods of operating an IV disposable time indication device are also provided.

A tamper evident label is formed of destructible material and has opposite major surfaces. One of the major surfaces has an adhesive thereon and is configured to overlie a theft protection sensor and adhere to an article to be protected. At least one weakness formation is provided in the label adjacent the periphery thereof.

Disclosed is a tamper proof tag and accompanying method for verifying that a watch is authentic and has not been tampered with. The tamper proof tag, when affixed to the watch, ensures that the watch is authentic and prevents a user from tampering with the watch. The tamper proof tag also allows the watch to be worn while the tamper proof tag is affixed to watch and is minimally obstructive to the aesthetics of the watch. This provides a purchasing user with confidence that the watch is authentic, while also allowing the user to try on the watch without having to remove the tamper proof tag. The tamper proof tag also protects the seller from a user that may attempt to tamper with the watch after purchase. For example, the seller may condition returns for a sold watch on the tamper proof tag remaining affixed to the watch.

A sealing film, comprising a carrier film and a plurality of functional layers comprising at least two color display layers and at least two adhesion-controlling layers, the sealing film having an adhesive layer for fastening to a base surface, the carrier film being at least partially detachable from the functional layers in order to bring the sealing film from a first state into a second state, at least one symbol arrangement being optically visible at least in a remainder in the second state, which at least one symbol arrangement is arranged in a first subregion and a second subregion. According to the invention, the functional layers and the adhesive layer are at least partially translucent and the functional layers comprise at least one additional color display layer and at least one additional adhesion-controlling layer, the functional layers being designed in such a way that the at least one symbol arrangement is optically better visible in the first subregion than in the second subregion on a light background and that the at least one symbol arrangement is optically better visible in the second subregion than in the first subregion on a dark background.

The present invention is directed to tamper-evident mesh material, methods of manufacture therefor, and tamper-evident bags manufactured therefrom. The tamper-evident mesh material of the present invention may be used, for example, in the manufacture of a variety of tamper-evident security bags for use in applications where it is desirable to detect any traces or evidence of tampering with or of unauthorized access to the contents of the bag.

A separation indicator for indicating when a door has been opened. The separation indicator includes a substrate having opposed inner and outer surfaces and first and second portions, with an elongated tear line between the first and second portions. An adhesive material is applied to the inner surface of the substrate and a message, pattern, or design is printed on the outer face of the substrate. The indicator further comprises a series of perforations separated by uncut links along the tear line, with at least a part of the perforations being angled with respect to the tear line. The links hold the first and second portions of the substate together when the indicator is first placed on a door and break along the tear line when the door to which the indicator is attached is opened. Movement of the door to the open position causes the substrate to tear along the tear line while the first and second portions of the substrate remain adhered to the door and door jamb.

A system for detecting tampering in a product having a tamper-detector seal, including a secure element configured to store a digital signature and a data associated with the digital signature, transmit the digital signature and the data associated with the digital signature in response to a request, detect tampering of the tamper-detector seal, and modify the data associated with the digital signature if tampering is detected. The system further includes a seal validation device configured to receive a public key associated with the product, request the digital signature and the data associated with the digital signature from the secure element, and validate the digital signature utilizing the data associated with the digital signature and the public key associated with the product.
