News Factor reports, "Armed with a new technology dubbed Glossmark, scientists at Xerox want to rob terrorists and other criminals of several important weapons in their arsenal -- forged drivers' licenses, phony passports, fake birth certificates, and similar documents of dubious origin...Information embedded in a Glossmark print -- for example, a seal or a date and time -- catches the light when it is tilted and can be seen as an additional and separate image...The embedded information cannot be reproduced on a conventional copier or scanner." :: Submitted for your mark of the beast files on ID technology. :: I wonder if you can put a Glossmark on a person?
