Artifact-Metric-Based Authentication for Bottles of Wine (Short Paper)

摘要

The authentication system is an effective measure in avoiding counterfeit products. In order to enhance the security and to reduce the cost, artifact-metrics authentication is expected to replace the existing cryptography-based authentication system since it utilizes the intrinsic individual differences of products. In this paper, we propose a new artifact-metric-based individual authentication system that authenticates bottles of wine. The proposed system takes the light pattern of a light emitting diode transmitted through a bottle of wine as an image, and uses it as a fingerprint. Based on experimental results, we show that the system distinguishes different bottles of wine correctly, and that the authentication is sufficiently tolerant to dirt and flaws on the surface of the bottle.
