Identification document with three dimensional image of bearer
First Claim
1. In a method of producing an identification document that includes:
- capturing an image of a person; and
printing image data so that the image data is conveyed by the document, wherein the image data corresponds to the captured image;
an improvement comprising;
producing a 3D representation from a single captured 2D image;
from said 3D representation, generating at least two 2D images; and
printing, in interleaved fashion, image data from said generated 2D images so that the image data is conveyed by the identification document.

Abstract
An identification document includes a lens system and a specially prepared photo of a document bearer. The lens system and the specially prepared photo cooperate to create a three dimensional photo effect. The document includes two or more document layers. There is a lens structure in one of the document layers, and it includes lens elements. A photo is printed on one or more of the document layers. The photo depicts the document bearer, and includes two or more separate images of the bearer from different perspectives. Parts of the separate images are interleaved together into sets, and the sets are positioned relative to corresponding lens elements of the lens structure. These sets include parts of the separate images such that when viewed through the lens structure, the parts are viewed simultaneously making the subject appear three-dimensional to a viewer.
