Presentation by Martin Richardson, Professor of Modern Holography, De Montfort University
Holograms are used by industry to authenticate documents, ID and credit cards etc, but can be, are, forged by organised crime on a global scale. This talk outlines a path to halt such counterfeits with state of the art hyperspectral imaging and Multi-Colour Holographic imaging to create a complex/hybrid hologram. It will cover issues from academic concept to 'proof of principle' and the future industrial mass replication production. During the talk a hologram will be made live and audience participation is encouraged.
