  • the safety images 5 can be recovered remotely by means of a mobile device 7, by means of the QR code 11.
  • the QR code 11 is preferably one, since it is unique to the label 1.
  • the label 1 comprises means configured to alter the security image 6 when the label is removed, at least in part, from the container 2, as better explained in the following.
  • Each security image 6 is unique for each label 1, thus different for each label 1. This fact reduces the possibility to counterfeit the label 1 itself.
  • the optical comparison of the safety image 6 with the reference image 5 can be made by a user which examines the two images by comparing them or, to obtain a more objective comparison, it can be performed by an electronic device appropriately configured as illustrated in Fig. 7.
  • a mobile device 7 such as a smartphone or a tablet equipped with a camera 8, to acquire the security image 6.
  • the same mobile device 7, which is part of the anti- break-in system, comprises a unit processing 12 configured to execute a program installed in a memory 13 of the mobile device 7.
  • the program is configured so as to compare the security image 6 acquired by means of the camera 8 with the reference image 5, also acquired with the camera 8.
  • the comparison is carried out by acquiring both the images 5,6, simultaneously or in successive moments, and verifying the correspondence of the two images 5,6 acquired.
  • the camera 8 of a mobile device 7 allows a more objective image to be acquired, and the program allows a comparison, by overlapping, that the human eye cannot perform. This type of comparison is therefore more reliable. If the safety image 6 and the reference image 5 coincide, the label is attested by the program of the device 7 as integral. Otherwise, the program will certify the violation of label 1. The certificate can then be shown on the display 10.
  • the mobile device 7 can also notify the label supplier or the company that affixed the labels, as a security system, that a violation has been detected.
  • the label provider can keep track of which labels, and therefore which products or customers, have suffered a violation and also in which geographical location the violation took place.
  • the labels are different from each other in the sense that they have security images 6, and therefore reference images 5, always different from each other, so that it is impossible for the counterfeiter to know which image will be reproduced on a specific label 1.
  • Said security image 6 is therefore unique, i.e. the security image of a label is different from the security image of another label.
  • the mobile device 7 comprises known means and available to the person skilled in the field of smartphones or tablets, able to acquire images 5,6 by means of the camera 8 of the mobile device 7.

  • the user through the mobile device 7, frames the images 5,6 by the camera 8 and using the display 10, and acquires them. This acquisition occurs when the distance and the framing of the image 5,6 is appropriate for the acquisition.
  • the reference image 5 can also be contained in an archive.
  • Said archive or database can be local 9', that is installed directly in the mobile device 7, or remote 9, so to remotely interrogated by means of the mobile device 7 through a communication network.
  • the label 1 comprises an image pointing to the position in which the reference image 5 relating to the specific label 1 can be recovered.
  • Said image pointer can contain an internet address to be typed on a browser pre-installed in the mobile device 7, or a QR code 11 containing the information to recover said reference image 5 from the remote database 9.
  • the program installed in the memory 13 of the mobile device 7 comprises a reading function of the QR code 11 configured for acquiring, by means of the camera 8, the QR code 11 and decoding it, i.e. extrapolating the address from which the reference image 5 is stored.
  • the reference image 5 thus recovered from the database 9 can be displayed on the display 10 and/or compared with the security image 6 acquired previously or simultaneously.
  • the QR code 11 can be arranged beside the security image 6 on the label 1 so as to allow the acquisition of both information simultaneously, i.e. by means of a single shot of the camera 8.
  • the program in this case is configured to distinguish the acquired information, and in particular to temporarily store the security image 6 acquired in the memory 13 of the device 7 and to recover the reference image 5 from the database 9 and temporarily store it also in the memory 13.
  • the images of safety 6 and reference 5 can therefore be compared by the program installed in the memory 13 of the device 7 to check whether the images 5,6 coincide or not coincide.
  • the program includes functions that, if from the graphic comparison of said images 5,6 results that they are different, the label 1 is declared violated. Otherwise, label 1 is recognized as intact and therefore not violated.
  • the program installed in the memory 13 can compare the security image 6 with the reference image 5 by superimposing or comparing the images 5, 6 pixel by pixel.
  • said program is configured to perform a colorimetric analysis of the pixels of the pictures 5,6. The colors of the images 5,6 are compared and, if they do not coincide, the label is considered violated.
  • Said program makes it possible to automate the comparison and make it more reliable than the version in which the comparison between the reference images 5 and the safety images 6 is carried out by graphic comparison by the user inspecting the label 1.
  • the graphic comparison carried out by the user makes it possible to disregard the mobile device 7 and therefore makes the anti-break-in system usable anywhere and by anyone, even in the absence of an internet network.
  • QR code 11 permits to not supply a reference image directly on the label 1, thus making the counterfeiting of the label itself even more complex.
  • the safety image 6 is such as to coincide with the reference image 5 when the label 1 is correctly attached to the container 2.
  • each of these labels 1 needs activation.
  • the mobile device 7 or a similar device read the identification code of the label 1, for example the QR code 11, and communicate it to a remote server. In this way, the system is able to keep track that the label 1 has been affixed to a container 2.
  • the label 1 is preferably positioned in correspondence with the opening of the container 2 so that, in the case of opening of the container 2, the label is damaged or broken.
  • the label 1 is damaged or broken, attesting the opening of the container 2 is very simple, as already happens in many anti-break-in systems. If, on the other hand, you try to remove the label 1 to open the container 2 illegally, the label 1 is configured so that the security image 6 become altered and, comparing it with the reference image 5, it is possible to notice that they are no longer equal. This comparison makes it possible to detect the alteration of the label and therefore suspect the opening of the container 2. In this case, the security image 6 and the reference image 5 will no longer coincide, since a colorimetric alteration will have been generated on the label security image 6.
  • Labels 1 can be customized for a specific type of container or for a specific product or for a specific customer.
  • the reference image 5, being univocal, also acts as an identifier of the label itself and therefore of the product on which it is used.
  • the same reference images 5 refers to a specific container, product or customer, and when an infringement occurs, in addition to discover the violation itself, it is possible to identify which product or container, and which customer, has been infringed.
  • the program When the comparison between the security image 6 and the reference image 5 is performed by the program installed in the mobile device 7, the program itself is configured to send a break-in report to a remote server.
  • the break-in report besides indicating the successful violation of the label 1, indicates the reference image 5 shown on the label 1. This report information permits to the server to associate the label 1 with the container, product or customer for which label 1 is intended.
  • the break-in report may contain information relating to the position of the mobile device 7 and therefore to the position in which the violation of the label was recorded 1. This also allows to create statistics of violation of product families or types of products or products of certain customers. For example, imaging that a label is appropriately shaped to be attached to a leather bag of a popular brand of women's bags, by analyzing the break-in reports received from the server, it will be possible to detect the break-in rate of bags and accessories of a certain popular brand and the places where they occurred.

  • the container is a carton box
  • the label 1 can be attached to the two closing edges of the box, where normally the packing tape is placed. This positioning prevents the container 2 from being opened without violating the label 1. In this way, any violation of the label 1 attests to a potential opening of the container 2.
  • the security image 6 is preferably positioned astride the container and its closure element 4. In practice, the security image 6 falls at the portion of the container 2 which normally it must be open to access compartment 3. In this way, the compartment 3 of the container 2 cannot be inspected without violating the label 1 and in particular altering the security image 6. In this case, as will be seen better later on , if the label 1 comprises one or more notches 19, the security image 6 will break at least in part, altering itself, in the case of opening of the container 2.
  • the label 1 comprises various layers of material as described below. Some of said layers represent the means suitable to alter the appearance of the safety image 6, in particular the transparent layers 30, anti-adhesive 31 and the intermediate layer 32, as better explained in the following.

  • the painted external layer reproduces a bar code, therefore rows of black paint deposited on the transparent layer 30.
  • the bar code is therefore the security image 6.
  • labels 1 relating to different containers or products differentiate between them. Even more preferably, the security image 6 is different for each label 1, so two labels 1 never reproduce the same security image.
  • An intermediate layer of colored paint 32 is placed under the transparent layer 30 and a layer of anti-adhesive material, preferably wax, is interposed between these two layers.
  • the anti-adhesive layer does not completely cover the neighboring layers 30 and 32, but is arranged on the layer 30 so as to reproduce a predetermined image or shape.

  • Said method further comprises a second and following phase B which provides for comparing the safety image 6 of the label 1 with the reference image 5, which can be affixed to the label 1 itself or to the container 2.
  • Said method also comprises a third and following phase C which provides for attesting the violation of the label 1 and therefore the potential opening of the container 2 if as a result of said comparison B, the security image 6 is different from the reference image 5 .
  • the method may further comprise the optional step of recovering the reference image 5 remotely.
  • the reference image affixed to the label 1, or to the container 2 is an image pointing to a remote database where the reference image 5 is contained.
  • the said intermediate phase comprises the steps of acquisition (phase D ), by means of the camera 8 of a mobile device 7, a portion of the label 1 comprising said pointer, which may preferably be a QR code 11.
  • Said image pointer, or QR code 11 is configured so as to address the mobile device 7 to a position within the database 9 in which the reference image 5 is located.
  • step E the image is retrieved (step E) from the database 9 by means of the mobile device 7 for the subsequent comparison step B.
  • Said comparison step B can comprise two sub-phases.
  • the first sub-phase F envisages acquiring by a camera 8 of the mobile device 7 the security image 6.
  • the second sub-phase G provides to execute a program installed in a memory 13 of the mobile device 7 to compare the security image 6 acquired at phase F, with the reference image 5 recovered at stage G.
  • this label is suitable for a combined use with a blockchain digital register.
  • the blockchain is a shared and immutable data structure, designed to manage the transfer of values and assets.
  • a blockchain is in practice a digital archive of all transactions or passages suffered by a specific physical asset, such as a house, a medical record, a paper document, or a digital asset, such as a cryptocurrency.
  • this digital archive all the steps of the asset are recorded and these cannot be changed, avoiding the possibility of fraudulent actions.
  • the label is a data structure that can be defined as a digital register divided into blocks concatenated in chronological order and regulated by a shared protocol.
  • the records are permanent, unalterable and transparent for anyone who accesses them.
  • the label according to the present invention allows to guarantee the demonstrability of its removal from a physical object, therefore a given label can be associated with certainty with certainty to a specific physical object, for example a product, a contract, a paper document , a medical record, etc. If a specific label is therefore associated with a specific blockchain register, said label becomes a physical correspondent that guarantees the digital transaction recorded via blockchain.
  • Each label can therefore include a progressive and unique identification code that can be indicated in the transaction recorded in blockchain.
  • a purchase transaction of a very rare and very expensive bottle of wine is concluded on the web and this transaction is recorded through a blockchain register, associating the identification code of the label applied to the said bottle with the aforementioned digital purchase contract in blockchain, the buyer will be certain that the bottle that will be delivered corresponds exactly to the one purchased. The purchaser of the bottle is therefore certain, before concluding the purchase contract, and paying the good, that this good will really be what will be delivered to him.
  • the security of a smart contract in blockchain can be paralleled, with maximum security, to a label in accordance with the present invention, so as to associate a physical asset with a digital transaction.
