Abstract: The invention relates to a visually variable security element (20) for protecting articles of value with an achromatically reflective microstructure in the form of a mosaic (22) comprising a large number of achromatically reflectively mosaic elements (26-1, 26-2) which are characterized by the parameters size, outline, relief, reflective capability and physical orientation and which form a predetermined subject by virtue of various groups of mosaic elements (26-1, 26-2) with different characteristic parameters reflecting incident light (28) into different spatial areas (30). In this case, the mosaic elements (26-1, 26-2) have a lateral dimension below the resolution limit of the eye.

Cube-corner retroreflective articles having wide angularity in multiple viewing planes
Timothy L. Hoopman
- 30 Jul 1984
TL;DR: In this article, a set of cube-corner retroreflective articles having improved angularity along multiple viewing planes are provided. The articles are rotated 180° with respect to one another, the three lateral mutually perpendicular faces of the elements being defined at their bases by linear edges that lie in a common plane, and the optical axes being tilted toward one another.
