Hawaii Patent of the Month – November 2024

HNu Photonics has reimagined anti-counterfeit technology with its Full Spectrum Color Holographic Quick Response (FSCHQR) system, a cutting-edge innovation that fuses holography with multi-layered QR code encryption. This invention introduces a revolutionary approach to secure labeling, offering unparalleled protection for industries facing the challenges of counterfeit goods.

At the heart of FSCHQR is its unique ability to embed multiple layers of QR codes—each in distinct colors like red, green, and blue—into a three-dimensional hologram. These holograms extend beyond visible light, incorporating narrowband color layers from ultraviolet to infrared, making them nearly impossible for counterfeiters to replicate. Unlike traditional QR codes paired with holograms, FSCHQR transforms the QR code into the hologram itself, combining anti-tampering and data encryption capabilities in one seamless design.

The FSCHQR system leverages holographic mathematics and codebook encryption to ensure maximum security. Each layer stores extensive information, enabling the label to encode vast datasets across multiple dimensions. By incorporating this technology into packaging labels, brands can safeguard their products against counterfeit threats while maintaining efficient and scalable production processes.

This breakthrough is not only highly secure but also adaptable across industries, from pharmaceuticals to electronics. Its resilience against duplication and ability to store layered information make FSCHQR a game-changer in the fight against counterfeit goods. Furthermore, the technology is designed for compatibility with advanced hologram readers, ensuring seamless data extraction and verification.

HNu Photonics’ FSCHQR innovation demonstrates a perfect blend of science and practicality, setting new standards for product security. As counterfeiting grows increasingly sophisticated, FSCHQR provides a robust, forward-looking solution that protects brands, enhances consumer trust, and secures supply chains worldwide.
