CAPTCHA IMAGE SCRAMBLE
20170220851 · 2017-08-03 ·

In one embodiment, a computing device determines a Completely Automated Public Turing Test to Tell Computers and Humans Apart (CAPTCHA). The CAPTCHA includes a first static image that has image sections that are arranged in a first order. Each of the image sections corresponds to a unique identifier. The CAPTCHA further includes a second static image that includes each of the image sections of the first static image that are arranged in a second order. The computing device generates web-browser-executable code for converting the second static image to the first static image based on the first static image, the first order, and the unique identifiers. The computing device sends the second static image and the web-browser-executable code to a client device.

Radial Lenticular Blending Effect
20170201649 · 2017-07-13 ·

A method of integrating a radial zoom effect with a complementary radial image transition effect includes integrating the effects such that the two blended radial effects share a common center, and thereby share common displacement paths during the perceived transition. In addition to the visual appeal of the effect, the invention also resolves operational incompatibilities between the practice of commercial photography and the practice of lenticular printing. A lenticular product is formed in accordance with this method.

Pixel mapping, arranging, and imaging for round and square-based lens arrays to achieve full volume 3D and multi-directional motion

A visual display assembly adapted for use as an anti-counterfeiting device on paper currency, product labels, and other objects. The assembly includes a film of transparent material including a first surface including an array of lenses and a second surface opposite the first surface. The assembly also includes a printed image proximate to the second surface. The printed image includes pixels of frames of one or more images interlaced relative to two orthogonal axes. The lenses of the array are nested in a plurality of parallel rows, and adjacent ones of the lenses in columns of the array are aligned to be in a single one of the rows with no offset of lenses in adjacent columns/rows. The lenses may be round-based lenses or are square-based lenses, and the lenses may be provided at 200 lenses per inch (LPI) or a higher LPI in both directions.

09690091 · 2017-06-27 ·

Dynamically-variable graphic displays, including a panel comprised of a plurality of electrostatic particles and a plurality of electrodynamic contacts supported within a nonconductive substrate, wherein each electrostatic particle is situated within a channel in the nonconductive substrate such that the nonconductive substrate comprises a plurality of channels oriented in one direction. Also included within the invention are dynamically-variable graphic display panels comprising electrostatic particles that each comprise a plurality of sectors, each having a different color and a fixed magnetic polarity relative to said sectors, and a plurality of electrodynamic contacts, each contact located adjacent to an electrostatic particle and positioned for interaction with one of the electrostatic particles.

PRODUCTION METHOD FOR PATTERNED PHOSPHORESCENT BODY, PATTERNED PHOSPHORESCENT BODY, AND EVACUATION GUIDE SIGN
20170144914 · 2017-05-25 ·

Provided are: a production method for a patterned phosphorescent body capable of producing a patterned phosphorescent body with excellent light emission (phosphorescent) performance through simple and easy production processes; a patterned phosphorescent body, and an evacuation guide sign. A mixture obtained by mixing at least a phosphorescent material and a glass material is filled in a mold and the mixture is press-molded so as to provide a planar part (10), thereby to create a molded body. The molded body is baked and slowly cooled, and then transfer paper of a water transfer type is attached to a surface of the planar part (10) of the baked molded body (4) and re-baking is performed at a temperature lower than a baking temperature of the molded body to impress a pattern (11) on the transfer paper.

CAPTCHA image scramble
09635019 · 2017-04-25 · ·

In one embodiment, a client computing device receives information regarding a Completely Automated Public Turing Test to Tell Computers and Humans Apart (CAPTCHA). The CAPTCHA includes an image file, a challenge, and code that is executable by a web browser to unscramble the received image file. The code includes instructions to divide the received image file into image sections, each image section having a unique identifier and grouped into either a first set or a second set. The code further contains instructions to transpose each image section in the first set into a new position, creating a new image. A web browser of the client computing device executes the code to create a second image from the received image file. The second image and the challenge are presented to a user of the client computing device.
