Provide an anti-counterfeiting solution based on the unique RF properties of the ink used for printing the tag. Address the reading of printed labels in difficult real life conditions Non-line of sight Any orientation/angle Anti collision effect-identify single tags within tag groups Provide 25bit to 96bit information applications

The Experts in Machine - Readable Authentication 8 How our Technology Works The existence of diffraction has limited the extent to which symbols or images (such as barcodes) can be compressed. Diffraction is the bending, spreading and interference of waves when they pass by an obstruction or through a gap. When a bar code symbol is placed too near another symbol, its waves interfere with those of its neighbour (diffraction) and vice versa, making it impossible to accurately read either bar. This limitation has restricted the density with which symbol based codes can be printed, and therefore the minimum size required for machine- readable codes. By extension, this has also limited the number of digits which can be used, for example, in barcodes.

The Experts in Machine - Readable Authentication 9 Technology: Diffraction Phenomena Current technologies do not take into account that the diffraction phenomena are predictable. That is, it is possible to place 2D objects within extremely high density, yet still use deductive methods to identify them Although the labels produced using this method are 2- dimensional, the phenomena itself produces a 3D effect. In this way, it is possible to derive the exact position of the label, even if behind an obstacle. This capability minimizes the challenge of correctly identifying objects that are located directly behind other objects (collision)

The Experts in Machine - Readable Authentication 10 Technology: Using The Diffraction Phenomena Our approach : devise a code of simple objects together with algorithms for interpreting the phenomena produced when they are printed close to each other Depending upon the wavelength used to query and transmit the information and the code used, it is possible to print the desired level of information in small areas No silicon chip required 96-bit printed code consumes only 10% of the conductive ink required for a printed RFID antenna Detection principles based on Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), Interferometer Synthetic Aperture Radar (ISAR) and RF Holography (RFH)

The Experts in Machine - Readable Authentication 11 Each code produces a unique image. Red colors indicate the presence of code information Image processing algorithms detect the image and extract its information Segmentation of label information from background Multiple image separation Further analysis of the image completed only in the labels area How our Technology Works
