Title: Color to black and white converter
Inventor: LIN YING-WEI
IPC: G06T11/00
Filed: 2001-10-23
Abstract: A continuously variable screening tool is used to generate a unique texture pattern for every color in a multicolor image. The continuously variable screening tool allows a single colorant version of the image to be generated with less information loss than typically suffered in the multicolor to single color transformation process. The continuously variable screening, tool is generated by blending patterns from a set of reference screens. The reference screens are associated with selected reference colors in, for example, a machine independent color space. A calculated screen is generated through a weighted blend of reference screens located near the arbitrary color in the machine independent color space. Typically, the weights depend on the distance the arbitrary color is from each of the reference colors. The screens consist of arrays of threshold values. Each threshold value is associated with a dot position and an image pixel. Where a pixel value exceeds the associated threshold value, provision is made to place a mark in the associated dot position. An image processor operative to carry out the method comprises a continuously variable screening tool generator. An embodiment of the image processor includes a reference screen storage device and a screen blender.

Inventor: DOLJACK FRANK A
IPC: G06F21/00
Filed: 2000-06-22
Abstract: Product indicia for use in authenticating products or as tax stamps are generated and encrypted with a public encryption key. The encrypted indicia are then transferred (e.g. via modem) to an indicia application location (152) where the indicia are to be applied to products (e.g. by printer 160). The encrypted indicia are decrypted at the application location using the corresponding private key. However, this private key, stored at the application location (in key file 164), is itself encrypted with a code-protected key which is embedded in a code-protected processor device (158).  The code-protected key cannot be deciphered without rendering the code-protected memory inoperable. An encrypted log file (166) is also maintained of product indicia which have been processed previously. Decrypted indicia which are ready for printing are compared to indicia in the log file to ensure that these indicia have not been printed before.
