Abstract: To better protect collectible cards, a better tamper evident case is needed, one that counterfeiters cannot replicate. Disclosed is a collectible card case where each edge is physical unclonable function (“PUF”) material that counterfeiters cannot replicate. Further disclosed is a thermally sealed bag with an integrated PUF material where each bag is unique and unclonable, and a device for sealing and measuring the magnetic and optical properties of the PUF material. Finally, a reusable hard case is disclosed with features that allow for a one-time use PUF security clip.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus comprising an accumulator drum for receiving toner images from a plurality of imaging units and transferring the toner images to a receiving media. The basic components of the image forming apparatus comprise an accumulator drum having a plurality of imaging units with photoconductive drums positioned about the accumulator drum, and a laser assembly. In one embodiment, a laser emits light beams for forming a latent image on each of the photoconductive drums with each light beam having a different external optical path length. In one embodiment, a drive mechanism operatively connected to the imaging units drives the accumulator drum. In one embodiment, the imaging units are positioned about the accumulator drum is a specific angular placement. In one embodiment, the imaging units are at least partially positioned within the interior of the accumulator drum.
