| Title: | AUTHENTICATING AND IDENTIFYING OBJECTS USING NANOPARTICLES | |||||||||||
| Abstract: | Apparatus, system, and method to authenticate and identify objects using nanoparticles are described herein. In one embodiment, a computer-readable storage medium includes executable code to: (1) derive an index based on an authentication image of a marking; (2) select a reference image of the marking based on the index; (3) compare the authentication image with the reference image to determine whether the authentication image matches the reference image; and (4) produce an indication of authenticity based on whether the authentication image matches the reference image. | |||||||||||
