  • Publication number: 20230414453
    Abstract: A method for anti-counterfeiting and identification of products includes manufacturing multiple marking units with different characteristics, performing an arrangement and combination operation on the marking units to design multiple arrangement marks that are not repeated, recording the arrangement marks to construct a record datebase, and setting each of the arrangement marks with the marking units on a target product such as a medicine. After the consumer purchases the target product, the photos of the target product and the record datebase are identified and compared to judge the authenticity of the target product.

  • Patent number: 10324577
    Abstract: A writeable display medium incorporating various sensing elements into the backplane of the writeable display medium so that the sensing elements can cause the associated pixels to update immediately in contrast to state-of-the art writeable displays that rely on a feedback loop between a digitizing layer and a display driver that controls the output of a display. As a stylus is moved over the display, a signal emitted from the stylus (e.g., an electromagnetic field) will change the state of a transistor associated with a pixel, resulting in a nearly instantaneous state change in the display (i.e., white to black).
