Abstract
An anti-counterfeiting method involves carrying out an image processing operation on an image of the printed genuine barcode including superimposing a best-fit grid on the image and extracting edge linearities of a plurality of modules of the image with respect to the best-fit grid; generating a list of the plurality of modules of the image of the printed genuine barcode (sorted based at least in part on the magnitudes of their respective extracted linearities); carrying out the image processing operation on an image of a printed candidate barcode; generating a list for the plurality of modules of the image of the printed candidate barcode (sorted based at least in part on the magnitudes of their respective extracted linearities); in first and second ranges of magnitudes, comparing the sorted list for the image of the printed genuine barcode with the sorted list for the image of the printed candidate barcode.
