A physically unclonable function (PUF) device comprises a plurality of conductors, at least some of which are arranged so that they interact electrically and/or magnetically with one another. A media surrounds at least a portion of each of the conductors, and circuitry applys an electrical challenge signal to at least one of the conductors and for receiving an electrical output from at least one of the other conductors to generate an identifying response to the challenge signal that is unique to the device.

There is provided A method for producing an electrical impedance tomographic image of an acoustic field within a fluid, comprising the steps of: a) positioning a plurality of electrodes within a fluid; b) applying an electrical signal to each electrode within a first subset of electrodes, wherein the electrical signal applied to each electrode has a different carrier frequency and/or phase; c) measuring the electrical potential at each electrode within a second subset of electrodes; and d) processing the measured data to provide an acoustic map of the acoustic field at the required acoustic frequencies. There is also provided a system for producing an electrical impedance tomographic image of an acoustic field within a fluid using the method of any preceding claim, comprising a plurality of electrodes, a signal generator adapted to perform step (b), a device adapted to perform step (c), and a processor adapted to perform step (d).
