ABSTRACT:
An identification card provided with secret data contained in the form of a wave guide hologram recorded in a layer on the card. Light for developing or displaying the hologram is introduced into a wave guide layer extending along the surface of the card through a grating that admits light only of a given wave length suitable for developing the wave guide hologram. The secrecy of the wave guide hologram is further enhanced by incorporating into the light coupling grating a further hologram by which light only of a predetermined pattern can be coupled to the wave guide for delivery to the wave guide hologram.
