An identification tag 10 features a label 12 affixed to a fabric 14 by adhesive. The label 14 includes a window 16, through which an area of fabric is exposed. Within the window area, a unique image of naturally occurring features of the fabric surface is taken, such as with a laser scanning device. Subsequent images can be taken of the same area, and compared to a stored master scan, for identification and anti-counterfeiting purposes. The label 14 may be used, for example, on items of clothing. |
