An electronic device may include electrical components and other components mounted within an interior of a housing. The device may have a display on a front face of the device and may have a glass layer that forms a housing wall on a rear face of the device. The glass housing wall may be provided with regions having different appearances. The regions may be textured, may have coatings such as thin-film interference filter coatings formed from stacks of dielectric material having alternating indices of refraction, may have metal coating layers, and/or may have ink coating layers. Textured surfaces, cavities, coatings, and other decoration may be embedded in glass structures that are joined with chemical bonds at diffusion-bonding interfaces.

A safety label and barrier that is configured to provide a first notification and a second notification about an area to which the safety label and barrier is proximate. The present invention includes a body wherein the body is provided as a rolled material. The body includes a first notification area wherein the first notification area has a first notification thereon. The first notification area is in a first color. Adjacent to the first notification area is a second notification area. The second notification area is a different color than the first notification area. The second notification area has a second notification thereon. The second notification area is in between each first notification area along the entire length of the body. The second notification area includes portions that are completed by a user of the safety label and barrier.

The invention relates to a label (30) for identifying an object, the label comprising a plurality of layers (L.sub.1, L.sub.2, L.sub.3), wherein each layer comprises a matrix material (15), and each layer comprises a plurality of identifier elements (10, 11); the plurality of identifier elements (10, 11) are dispersed in the matrix material (15), and the plurality of layers (L) are arranged so that at least two layers at least partially overlap each other. Further, the invention relates to a precursor of a label (30) for identifying an object and a method of manufacturing a label (30) for identifying an object.

The present invention relates to the field of magnetic assemblies and processes for producing optical effect layers (OELs) comprising magnetically oriented non-spherical magnetic or magnetizable pigment particles on a substrate. In particular, the present invention relates to magnetic assemblies processes for producing said OELs as anti-counterfeit means on security documents or security articles or for decorative purposes.

An indicator is provided that can couple, without a fastener, to a housing of an industrial device.

A physical card (in some cases without any on-board source of power or computing capabilities) is configured to maintain access information for digital bearer assets. A unique identifier visible on the card may be transmitted to a server-system to utilize functionalities corresponding to the card (e.g., based on information associated with the unique identifier) on a decentralized computing platform, like a blockchain-based decentralized computing platform. Private access information, like a secret, private key that corresponds to a public key (e.g., a public-private key-pair) or a representation of the private key (like a ciphertext thereof) and corresponding encryption key, may be physically concealed with tamper-evident components such that a user can readily determine whether the private access information was divulged. In some examples, a user is required to activate one or more tamper-evident features, thereby altering a visible state of the card, to utilize functionalities corresponding to the card.

Disclosed embodiments may relate to a time-dependent color-changing label for a product. The label may include a first layer comprising a plurality of particles, the particles comprising a time dependent color-changing material that changes color after a predetermined time period, the predetermined time period being greater than one month. The label may also include an attachment structure attaching the first layer to the product. In certain embodiments, the first layer may include a polymer, and the particles may include glass microspheres containing the time-dependent color changing material. The particles may be embedded in the polymer.

An image display element includes a display layer configured to display first to n-th (where n is an integer of 2 or more) images; a light-shielding pattern layer disposed opposite to the display layer and having alternately disposed light-shielding parts and light-transmitting parts, and a transparent layer disposed between the display layer and the light-shielding pattern layer. The display layer contains a coloring matter, where the coloring matter forms first to n-th images; each of the first to n-th images is divided in a discrete manner corresponding to the arrangement pattern of the light-transmitting parts; and an image visible through the light-shielding pattern layer changes depending on the angle from which the light-shielding pattern layer is viewed.

The present invention relates to a labeling element for items, which on a surface thereof is formed with a plurality of pixels with periodic lattice structures, in particular linear lattice structures. Lattice structures with in each case one structural period A and an alignment of the structural elements, which are aligned to one another in particular in a linear parallel manner, at an angle φ with respect to an axis of reference are formed in individual pixels such that when the pixels constituting the labeling element are irradiated with electromagnetic radiation, preferably monochromatic electromagnetic radiation, an image of the labeling element is created on an detector array or a surface, by means of images of at least one order of diffraction of the electromagnetic radiation diffracted by pixels which can be used for identification of the respective labeling element.

A label has a topcoat layer and a sacrificial layer. The topcoat layer has a first color having a first L-value and the sacrificial layer has a second color having a second L-value. The topcoat layer comprises at least one reflective pigment and a polymeric binder and the sacrificial layer comprises at least one infrared (IR) absorbing material and a polymeric binder. The first L-value is greater than the second L-value, and the total amount of the at least one reflective pigment is from 40 wt % to 80 wt %, based on the weight of the topcoat layer.
