Horus technologies develops novel optical tags based on planar digital micro-optics. These tags are calculated by computer, fabricated as masters via optical microlithography and replicated in mass by plastic embossing. Such tags are composed of several different levels of anti-counterfeating features, ranging from traditional holographic patterns, to OVIDs, to micro-holograms, to machine readable digital holograms storing holographic 1D and 2D bar codes. These tags have a double aim: anti-counterfeating of automotive/avionic parts and providing the engineer using an appropriate tag reader with all the technical information referring to these parts.
