Clone-proof monetary and security documents and preparation thereof

摘要

The present invention relates to particulate based compositions for deposition on substrates, a system and method for the deposition of the said compositions for preparation of a clone-proof monetary and/or security documents. The said composition is applied as an identifier at predetermined location on the substrate. The magneto-optical signal from the said applied composition is captured by the reading system. Further it is encrypted same as an invisible or visible two dimensional (2D) barcode/image on the substrate as an associated identifier so as to create a dedicated, non repeatable and unique functional digitized relation between two said identifiers and/or any other identifier(s) linked to a specific object.

主权项

1. A system comprising:
a document comprising (a) a substrate comprising a particulate composition provided as a particulate deposit identifier; and (b) a barcode or image or combination thereof provided as an associated identifier, wherein there is an unique functional relation between the particulate deposit identifier and the associated identifier, further comprising a substrate preparation system for preparation and functionalization of said substrate, the substrate preparation system comprising an applicator and a data capture system, wherein the applicator comprises a device to magnetize the particulate composition on the substrate, wherein the data capture system comprises a data capture center comprising a magneto-optic reading system, a data-matrix printing station, and a print verification station, wherein said magneto-optic reading system captures a signal from said particulate composition identifier and transforms the signal into a magneto-optical image to assign a signature to said particulate composition, wherein said signature is embedded in the barcode or image or combination thereof for irrefutably linking said signature with the associated identifier.
