Abstract
A pair of optical decryption glasses having lenses that modify incident light emitted from a display so as to render encrypted images appearing on the display that are undecipherable to the naked eye, readable when the screen is viewed through the lenses. The lenses include either diffractive elements such as grating or prisms, or refractive elements. The optical decryption glasses have a unique registration number, and the optical properties of each pair glasses are also unique to the glasses and associated with its registration number. In a related embodiment, a pair of decryption glasses with processing capabilities is provided. The decryption glasses include an optical sensor, a processor and a display screen. The optical sensor receives images appearing on an external screen that have been encrypted to be undecipherable to the naked eye, and converts the received images into digital data. This data is sent to the processor where it is decrypted, allowing underlying messages to be deciphered and shown on the display screen.

14. A system for providing secure and private transactions at public kiosks, comprising:
a public kiosk, including;
a processor; and
a display screen; and
a pair of decryption glasses;
wherein the processor of the public kiosk encrypts information that appears on the display screen so that the information is undecipherable to a naked eye, and the decryption glasses, when worn by a viewer, render the information readable for the viewer.

19. A method of providing secure and private transactions at public kiosks, comprising the steps of:
-
authenticating a prospective client attempting to use the public kiosk;
if the client is authenticated, encrypting image data appearing on a kiosk display so that they are undecipherable to a naked eye;
viewing the kiosk display using a pair of decryption glasses; and
decrypting the image data using the decryption glasses, rendering the image data readable for the viewer.
