Security Device with Chaosmetric Artifacts from Fractal Patterns
20230043690 · 2023-02-09 ·

Security devices having chaosmetric artifacts from fractal patterns are disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a security device, having a physical surface having formed thereon a composite pattern. The composite pattern can created from created from joining of an imprint of a first base pattern and an imprint of a second base pattern. The first base pattern can be created from a first basic building block. In one embodiment, the first base pattern is a fractal pattern based on the first basic building block which forms chaosmetric artifacts in the physical surface upon printing.

Optical products, masters for fabricating optical products, and methods for manufacturing masters and optical products

An optical product can reproduce a first 3D image of at least part of a first 3D object and a second 3D image of at least part of a second 3D object. The optical product comprises a surface configured, when illuminated, to reproduce by reflected or transmitted light, the first 3D image without reproducing the second 3D image at a first angle of view, and the second 3D image without reproducing the first 3D image at a second angle of view. Each portion of first portions can correspond to a point on a surface of the first 3D object, and comprise first non-holographic features configured to produce at least part of the first 3D image. Each portion of second portions can correspond to a point on a surface of the second 3D object, and comprise second non-holographic features configured to produce at least part of the second 3D image.
