Abstract: A system and method for creating a document containing secured personal identification information includes a database containing personal identification information; a classifier module for collecting and classifying the personal identification information; a memory module for storing the classified personal identification information; a password generator for associating a password combination with the classified personal identification information; a controller module for receiving and sending the classified personal identification information and the password combination to a processor; an encryptor in operative communication with the processor, for encrypting the classified personal identification information using the password combination; an encoder for converting the encrypted personal identification information into machine readable code; and a data recording system for creating a document containing secured personal identification information.

Abstract: A modulator in an imaging apparatus includes a metamaterial shell surrounding an opaque core. The metamaterial is tunable, so that the metamaterial acts as a waveguide for light at a given wavelength. This property of the metamaterial is used to modulate the light beam in an imaging apparatus. The light beam can be guided around the opaque core under a first voltage condition, or the light beam can be blocked by the opaque core under a second voltage condition.
