Label for enabling verification of an object
First Claim
1. A system to enable verification of an object, the system comprising:
- a security label comprising;
a scannable region configured to enable determination of a spatial orientation of the scannable region with respect to a reference point external to the security label, wherein the security label comprises multiple layers, and wherein the scannable region is at a layer disposed between a first layer of the security label and a second layer of the security label;
wherein a change in the spatial orientation indicates tampering of the security label.

Abstract
A label for enabling verification of an object includes a scannable region that enables determination of auto-acquired unique spatial orientation of the scannable region with respect to a reference thereby enabling determination of a spatial orientation of the label with respect to the reference. The label is applied onto the object and a change in the spatial orientation of the label indicates tampering of the label, thereby enabling verification of the object. Further, a method for detecting tampering of an object includes providing label on the object. The label has at least a portion which is scannable region with a plurality of patterns and is associated with an external reference point. Further, the method includes determining a first and a second spatial orientations of the label based on computation between the patterns and the reference point, and generating an alert on noticing a change between first and second spatial orientations.

17. A method to enable verification, the method comprising:
-
affixing a security label on an object, wherein the security label comprises a pattern; scanning the security label to obtain a reference spatial orientation, wherein the reference spatial orientation is based on a spatial relationship between the pattern and a reference point external to the security label, wherein the security label comprises multiple layers, and wherein the pattern is at a layer disposed between a first layer of the security label and a second layer of the security label, wherein the scanning the security label comprises determining an angle of pattern with respect to the reference point and determining a distance of the pattern with respect to the reference point to determine the reference spatial orientation; and storing the reference spatial orientation. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21)

22. A method to enable verification of an object with a security label, wherein the security label comprises a pattern, the method comprising:
-
scanning the security label to obtain a field spatial orientation of the pattern, wherein the field spatial orientation is based on a spatial relationship between the pattern and a reference point external to the security label, wherein the security label comprises multiple layers, and wherein the pattern is at a layer disposed between a first layer of the security label and a second layer of the security label, wherein the scanning the security label comprises determining an angle of pattern with respect to the reference point and determining a distance of the pattern with respect to the reference point to determine the reference spatial orientation; comparing the field spatial orientation of the pattern to a reference spatial orientation, wherein the reference spatial orientation is based on a computation between the pattern with respect to the reference point external to the security label; and verifying the object based on the comparison. - View Dependent Claims (23)

24. A method to enable verification of an object, the method comprising:
-
affixing a security label on the object, wherein the security label comprises a pattern; scanning the security label to obtain a first spatial orientation, wherein the first spatial orientation is based on a spatial relationship between the pattern and a reference point on the object external to the security label; determining a second spatial orientation, wherein the second spatial orientation is based on a spatial relationship that involves the reference point on the object external to the security label; verifying the object in response to an image match between the first and second spatial orientations; and failing verification of the object in response to an image mismatch between the first and second spatial orientations, the image mismatch being due to a removal of the security label from the object, reorientation of the security label on the object, or replacement of the security label on the object with another security label. - View Dependent Claims (25, 26, 27)
