1. A method comprising:
- obtaining a computer model;
performing an iterative transform domain process on a multi-purpose computer processor to convert the computer model into a holographic structure;
embedding a digital watermark into at least one of the group comprising the computer model and the holographic structure to yield a digital watermarked holographic structure; and
recording the digital watermarked holographic structure on a physical medium.

Abstract
The present invention relates generally to digital watermarking holographic structures. One method recites: creating a computer model; executing a transform domain iterative method to convert the computer model into a holographic structure; combining a digital watermark with the holographic structure; and conveying the combined digital watermark and holographic structure to a surface. Other combinations are provided and claimed as well.
