World's Ist Holographic RFID Tag
RFID and holograms are two
of the world's favorite
technologies used against
counterfeiting. It is a joy to see them
get together in one pretty little security
device, the result being the WORLD's
FIRST HOLOGRAPHIC—RFID
TAG, used by Hitachi and printing
experts at Toppan in Japan.
The hologram element is costly to fake
without large-scale facilities, while the
RFID data is encrypted and even more
difficult to crack.
On top of this, the stickers they are
rooted to, cannot be peeled off, without
being broken into pieces.
The ' IC Hologram' combines two
technologies with a view to make
tracking and verifying authenticity
of a product as watertight as
possible. Likely future application
include using it to secure batches of
medicines, but for now it is going
to keep tabs on really important
stuff like designer perfumes and
handbags.
According to sources nearly £100
billion are lost to counterfeiters every
year.

BMW's Hologram Tour to
Wall Street
BMW of North America and its
advertising agency GSD&M
Idea City are rolling out a 3-D
virtual vehicle tour to herald the
arrival of the first-ever BMW X6.
Going direct to target consumers with
a hologram of the vehicle, the world's
first sports activity coupe will be
featured in prominent buildings in
New York City's financial district over
a four-week period.
Employing patented technology from
Dutch advertising company viZoo, the
2008 BMW X6 will be projected in
three dimensions, appearing as a
hologram, inside a ten-foot square,
BMW-branded enclosure. Inside the
light-controlled space, an animation
suggesting the vehicle's unique
combination of coupe agility and sports
activity vehicle versatility runs on a
loop. An interactive touch-screen
inside the enclosure will allow people
to manipulate the vehicle hologram
to view different angles, experience
the interior, explore the vehicle
features, and get a sense of the
generous cargo space.

High Security Registration Number
Plates (HSRNP)-touted as one of the best
anti-theft systems for vehicles. This plan
will set take in six months from now.
Starting November 2008, these number
plates are going to be mandatorily fixed
on all new vehicles. The new high
security number plates will nationwide,
sport a uniform font and a unique
hologram that cannot be counterfeited.
They will also be much more durable and
would not lose its attributes for five
years. These number plates are estimated
to cost about US $ 63 (Rs 2500) per
vehicle and cannot be easily removed
and replaced. With features like these,
they are not easy to tamper;
a) Embossed registration numbers as well
as chromium hologram on the
aluminium plates.
b) Unique laser numbering containing the
alphanumeric identification of testing
agencies and manufactures.

dimensional (3D) images' describes the realization
of actual 3D communication using computer-
generated holography to send/receive information
and the associated optical elements required to make
a lightweight handset,'' This patent addresses the
issue of 3D in mobile communication.

The Holography Times Alert of the Issue
When it comes to intellectualproperty theft and piracy,most people think of movies
and high-end handbags- but what if thebrakes on your car were fake? Clearly,the auto parts industry has a piracyproblem. The FBI estimates that theauto industry loses $12 billion in annualsales due to counterfeiting. Chinaaccounts for $9 billion of counterfeitauto parts loses.
Counterfeit Auto Parts is the selling ofunauthorized parts to be used in repairand maintenance of an automobile.Virtually every automotive part hasturned up in counterfeit trade, includingwindshield glass, brake fluid, brakes,headlights, taillights, emissionscomponents, tires, belts, hoses,alternators, sheet metal and suspensionparts. The extent of it being that anentire car was copied, manufacturedand sold not as a Chevy but as a “CheryQQ,” with plans for export.
Wha t ' s d i f f e r en t now is thesophistication of the industrialisationtaking place in emerging economies-while manufacturing in these areas hasdeveloped, the concept of intellectualproperty has not.

Knock-off parts mean fewerjobs for manufacturing companiesand loss in sales
With counterfeit auto parts, the concerngoes beyond monetary losses. Fake partsare cheaper for a reason- they cut cornersand use poor quality materials, and theconsumerpays theprice in theend.
The physical dangers and risksinvolved in using these parts, is agrave concern. It is frightening toknow, that authorities have foundbrake linings made of compressedgrass, sawdust or cardboard that wearout quickly; spark plugs that overheatand can lead to fires; and gas caps thatcan leak after rollover accidents.
While the trade of counterfeit parts hasdramatically increased, tacklingcounterfeits is not impossible.Counterfeiting is a problem that needsto be addressed quickly and decisively.Ideally, as a first move, more effectivepartnerships should be built betweenlaw enforcement agencies and thepr ivate sectorwith focus
on intelligence sharing, awareness andproduct identification training.However, the involvement of allsegments of the automotive and heavy-duty industries cannot be undermined.
Manufacturers should create a teamthat focuses on anti-counterfeitingstrategy. This should includeregistration of trademarks andcopyr igh t s , and s t r a t egy fo renforcement of intellectual propertyrights.

The Holography Times Alert of the Issue
When it comes to intellectualproperty theft and piracy,most people think of movies
and high-end handbags- but what if thebrakes on your car were fake? Clearly,the auto parts industry has a piracyproblem. The FBI estimates that theauto industry loses $12 billion in annualsales due to counterfeiting. Chinaaccounts for $9 billion of counterfeitauto parts loses.
Counterfeit Auto Parts is the selling ofunauthorized parts to be used in repairand maintenance of an automobile.Virtually every automotive part hasturned up in counterfeit trade, includingwindshield glass, brake fluid, brakes,headlights, taillights, emissionscomponents, tires, belts, hoses,alternators, sheet metal and suspensionparts. The extent of it being that anentire car was copied, manufacturedand sold not as a Chevy but as a “CheryQQ,” with plans for export.
Wha t ' s d i f f e r en t now is thesophistication of the industrialisationtaking place in emerging economies-while manufacturing in these areas hasdeveloped, the concept of intellectualproperty has not.
Illegal trade in counterfeitsi s a t h r e a t t o t h ecompetitiveness of theautomotive industry
Knock-off parts mean fewerjobs for manufacturing companiesand loss in sales
With counterfeit auto parts, the concerngoes beyond monetary losses. Fake partsare cheaper for a reason- they cut cornersand use poor quality materials, and theconsumer pays theprice in theend.
The physical dangers and risksinvolved in using these parts, is agrave concern. It is frightening toknow, that authorities have foundbrake linings made of compressedgrass, sawdust or cardboard that wearout quickly; spark plugs that overheatand can lead to fires; and gas caps thatcan leak after rollover accidents.
While the trade of counterfeit parts hasdramatically increased, tacklingcounterfeits is not impossible.Counterfeiting is a problem that needsto be addressed quickly and decisively.Ideally, as a first move, more effectivepartnerships should be built betweenlaw enforcement agencies and thepr ivate sectorwith focus
on intelligence sharing, awareness andproduct identification training.However, the involvement of allsegments of the automotive and heavy-duty industries cannot be undermined.
Manufacturers should create a teamthat focuses on anti-counterfeitingstrategy. This should includeregistration of trademarks andcopyr igh t s , and s t r a t egy fo renforcement of intellectual propertyrights.
Also, anticounterfeiting technologyshould be employed, to ensure thatgenuine products are readi lyidentifiable.

Holography is something
humans have imagined and
been fascinated with for
centuries. Today, Hologram and
Holography is a not a new word for
people. Holograms have been popping
up through science fictions, myths,
religions and even horror films. One of
these technologies that has reached new
heights, and is creating rising interest is
Hologram Conferencing.
Conceptually, a hologram or holograph
is a virtual image of a human that talks,
walks like a human but has no mass and
occupies no space. It can pass through
walls and it can appear at wish. This is
what Hologram Conferencing tries to
achieve- To make people appear as a
hologram (virtual person) in real time,
anywhere in the world.
The new technology behind the
hologram conferencing involves
capturing an image with a video camera
and loading it onto a PC encoding card.
The encoding card turns the image into
a digital format which, with the help of
some special software, is transmitted to
another computer over the internet. At
the receiving end, another computer
reverses the process and an image is
created.
Hologram Conferencing is recently
giving a chance to business executives
and leaders to make presentations in
distant countries through virtual
presence. Recent advances in cameras
and microphones enable business
leaders to see and hear the event from
around 500 miles away, as audiences
watch high-definition image on a
transparent screen.
With the current trend of businesses
looking to adopt a more flexible
approach to cut back on costs and
reduce carbon emission, many
observers see holographic technology
as the way forward. If one can view a
holographic image of the person one is
talking to, then there is no reason to fly
halfway across the world for a business
meeting.Also, alarmists see it as a good
thing for the environment.
The technology was earlier used by US
Vice-President Al Gore during his Live
Earth conference, Prince Charles and
Microsoft Giant 'Bill Gates 'to avoid the
green house gas emission associated
with air travel.
We can envisage this technology being
used in many Industries - in data
visualization for planning, an awesome
asset in training/education and a must
see for the entertainment industry.
In the education space, a Maths teacher
was digitally teleported into the
exhibition centre at Olympia from
Graveney School in south London. At
the 2005 MTV Awards ceremony in
Portugal, the UK-based band Gorillaz
appeared in holographic form and
interacted with performers on-stage.
These technologies are all currently
available, but becoming more robust
and mass marketed. As quoted by an
Aust ra l ian te lecommunica t ion
c o m p a n y Te l s t r a . “ T h e n e w
technology will start entering
businesses in four to five years, and
eventually be in homes. As the
broadband speed start to go faster, a
step from there to a hologram is not
far away. ”

Dr. Stephen Benton(1941- 2003)
Agreat enthusiast, he will always be remembered for his distinct accomplishments and
attributes. Benton invented rainbow holography a process that makes a hologram visible
using common white light, also know in credit card iteration as “Benton holograms”.
TheHolographyTimes third issue is a tribute toDr.StephenBenton theartist of rainbow holography.
Benton was born in San Francisco in 1941 and grew up in Santa Barbera, Calif. He received his
undergraduate degree in electrical engineering (1963) from MIT, and received his Masters (1964)
and doctorate degree (1968) from Harward University.
In his early days he worked for the Polaroid Corporation. In 1968, while working in Polaroid
Corporation he invented the rainbow hologram, a hologram visible to the naked eye that uses
common white light fused on film or glass. Benton's holograms were eventually embedded into
credit cards and driver's licenses to provide protection against counterfeiting.
Benton first became interested in optics at 11 when he wore a pair of 3-D glasses to view the Vincent
Price movie, "The House of Wax." In his own words he describes Holography as a true intersection
of art, science and technology. Holography workds like photography in that it records light wave
patterns on chemically sensitive film or glass.
The man who described holography as a true "intersection of art, science and technology," held 14
patents in optical physics and photography. His work has been featured at the Museum of
Holography in NewYork, and used to create three-dimensional CT and MRI images.
Later in his career, Benton joined MIT in 1980 as a visiting scientist in the Laser Research Centre and
became founding head of the Spatial Imaging Group in 1982. From 1982 2003, for the past 20 years,
Benton taught media arts and sciences at MIT. He was also the director of the MIT Center for
Advanced Visual Studies.
Benton a gifted teacher, a great scientist, engineer and artist, loved his work and remained active in
his field until the time of his death.

Patents-Hologram
recording device
United States PatentApplication 20070263268
November 15, 2007
A hologram recorder A1
includes a light source (1) of a coherent light
beam and a spatial light modulator (5A) for
modulating a part of the light beam from the
light source (1) into a recording beam which
carries two-dimensional information. Another
part of the light beam is used as a reference
beam to interfere with the recording beam.
The recording beam and the reference beam are
directed to a hologram recording medium (B).
A semi-translucent optical device (4) is
disposed between the light source (1) and the
spatial light modulator (SA) for letting a part of
the beam travel to the spatial light modulator
(5A) as a transmitted beam while letting
another part of the beam travel to the hologram
recording medium (B) as a reflected beam.
