Abstract:
1. A method for generating a void pantograph, the method comprising: filtering an image using one or more filters, thereby identifying at least one region for a pantograph foreground and at least one other region for a pantograph background; setting static characteristics of at least one of the pantograph background or the pantograph foreground; while maintaining the static characteristics of the at least one of the pantograph background or the pantograph foreground, varying at least one characteristic of an other of the pantograph foreground or the pantograph background with respect to the static characteristics of the at least one of the pantograph background or the pantograph foreground to generate at least one test void pantograph; printing the at least one test void pantograph; assessing similarities between the pantograph foreground and the pantograph background for the printed at least one test void pantograph; and selecting deployment characteristics for the pantograph foreground and background based upon the assessment.
