Nanode: A platform interfacing XCo's communication and tracking with nano-media technology

XCo的利益是产品认证和信息的防伪和营销目的。 开发平台解决方案，允许使用PI开发的纳米媒体技术， 提出了XCO提供信息通信和跟踪的系统。纳米媒体的光学 图像和存储的数据需要连接到XCo的无线阅读器进行身份验证和跟踪。为了 为了提供一个强大的平台，以下挑战将决定研究创新计划：（1） 移动的照相机读取和捕获纳米媒体信息的能力：对准和其他易用性问题; 可以轻松读取的信息量;所需的最低分辨率;智能手机与手机摄像头 实现方式的(2)识别明显特征：最大限度地减少识别假冒产品所需的培训。（三） 视觉效果：可以完成的艺术/公开功能的范围（例如。图像、徽标、2D、3D、品牌）;增强 使用增强现实在设备（智能手机、平板电脑、显示器）上进行可视化。 (4)制造：最初的目标是使用新的特定纳米纤维制造一组有用的样品。 满足XCo要求的流程，如更新数据和包含在 图像或存储的数据。

XCo's interests are in product authentication and information for anti-counterfeiting and marketing purposes. Development of a platform solution that allows on using Nano-Media technology as developed by PI and XCO's system that provides communication and tracking of information is proposed. The Nano-Media's optical images and stored data need to be connected to XCo's wireless reader for authentication and tracking. In order to provide a robust platform the following challenges will dictate the research innovation program: (1) The mobile cameras ability to read and capture Nano-Media information: alignment and other ease of use issues; amount of information that can be easily read; minimal resolution required; smartphone vs cellphone cameras implementations. (2) Recognizing overt features: minimize training required to recognize a counterfeit. (3) Visuals: range of artistic/overt features that can be done (ex. images, logos, 2D, 3D, branding); augmented visualizations on devices (smartphone, tablet, displays) using Augmented Reality. (4) Manufacturing: The initial goal is to fabricate a set of useful samples using new specific nanofabrication processes for XCo's requirements such as updated data and personalization of information included into the images or stored data.
