An improved optical security system based on correlation between two phase-only computer generated masks is proposed. The two phase masks are placed together at the input plane of a joint transform correlator. A priori known output image is obtained in the system output only if one mask is the right key for the other mask. In addition to a simple verification, our security system is capable of identifying the type of an input mask according to the corresponding output image that it generates. The two phase masks are designed using an iterative optimization algorithm with constraints in the input and output domains. Computer simulations are presented with the resultant images formed by the two phase-only elements. © 2001 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers. [DOI: 10.1117/1.1388208]

Security and encryption optical systems based on a correlator with significant output images.
An improved optical security system based on two phase-only computer-generated masks is proposed. The two transparencies are placed together in a 4f correlator so that a known output image is received. In addition to simple verification, our security system is capable of identifying the type of input mask according to the corresponding output image it generates. The two phase masks are designed...
متن کاملOptical Image Encryption Based on Joint Fresnel Transform Correlator
Optical verification systems can make image hide in high-security phase key through the phase retrieval operation Conventionally, optical verification systems based on the joint transform correlator usually use Fourier transform. In this paper we propose the joint Fresnel transform architecture and use the methods of the projection onto constraint set and nonlinear transform to determine the p...
متن کاملSteganography and Encryption Systems Based on Spatial Correlators with Meaningful Output Images
Three different optical security systems are surveyed in this chapter. Their common feature is the appearance of meaningful images on the system’s output. In the first system, two phase-only transparencies are placed in a 4f correlator such that a known output image is received. In the second system, two phase-only transparencies are placed together in a joint-transform correlator for the same ...
متن کاملNonlinear optical security system based on a joint transform correlator in the Fresnel domain.
A new optical security system for image encryption based on a nonlinear joint transform correlator (JTC) in the Fresnel domain (FrD) is proposed. The proposal of the encryption process is a lensless optical system that produces a real encrypted image and is a simplified version of some previous JTC-based encryption systems. We use a random complex mask as the key in the nonlinear system for the...
متن کاملCompact Parallel Optical Correlator for Face Recognition, and Its Application
With the ongoing progress in information technology, the need for an accurate personal identification system based on recognizing biological characteristics is increasing demand for this type of security technology, rather than conventional systems that use ID cards or pin numbers. Of all physical features, the face is the most familiar and recognizable, and using it for identification purposes...
