ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus which provides alignment lines adjacent to a lenticular image. The alignment lines are projected through a lenticular overlay and used to align the overlay to the image. The alignment apparatus uses a light sensor and a computer to detect either changes in brightness or changes in a Moire pattern of the lines to effect rotational alignment and to detect either centeredness of the lines or brightness changes in the lines to effect translational alignment as the overlay is rotationally or translationally moved with respect to the print by the computer. An increase in brightness indicates motion toward either rotational or translational alignment. A constant brightness along the lines indicates rotational alignment while a peak in brightness indicates translational alignment.
