METHOD FOR PRODUCING A VALUE OR SECURITY DOCUMENT BLANK HAVING AN ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT, VALUE OR SECURITY DOCUMENT BLANK, AND SECURITY AND VALUE DOCUMENT
The invention relates to a method for producing a value or security document blank (1) having an electronic circuit, comprising the steps of: providing a mobile token (2), producing a compact module, comprising the following sub-steps: providing a first document layer (15), in the form of a circuit carrier layer carrying the electronic circuit, and at least one second document layer (16), the document layers (15, 16, 17) being formed from a fibre composite material, stacking the document layers (15, 16, 17), permanently joining the first document layer (15) and the at least one second document later (16) to form a compact module (3); forming a recess (5) that complements the compact module (3) on an outer side of the mobile token (3), arranging the compact module in the recess in the mobile token (2) and connecting to the mobile token (2). The invention also relates to an associated value or security document blank (1).
The invention relates to a method for the automatic adaptive calibration of authentication requirements for authentication of a current user of a mobile portable telecommunications device (100) with use of a program module (26) which implements a likelihood-based decision structure (28) and is configured to create a selection of authentication methods. The selection criterion used is that a combination of risk of damage (70) and authentication effort (64) is minimised for the selection of authentication methods.

The invention relates to a tab (23) and to a data page (17), in which the tab (23) is provided on a data carrier (20), and to a method for the production thereof, wherein the tab (23) has at least one sealing surface (39).
In order to simplify the production of a security element (300) having a first security feature (310) and a second security feature (320), the following method is proposed: (a) providing a light-sensitive film (200) having at least one carrier ply (210) and a light-sensitive functional layer (220) bearing against the latter in a planar fashion; (b) exposing the light-sensitive film (200) at least regionally to form a pattern in the light-sensitive functional layer (220), wherein the security element (300) is formed with a first security feature (310); (b') optionally fixing the exposed light-sensitive film; and (c) printing the carrier ply (210) and, if appropriate, the protective ply (230), wherein a second security feature (320) is produced.
The invention relates to a method for the verification of a luminescent-material-based security feature, which contains a luminescent material in which an emission can be stimulated, by means of a smartphone. In a first step, an emission of the luminescent material of the security feature can be stimulated by means of an illumination unit of the smartphone. After the completion of the stimulation, the emission is detected during a predetermined fall time, via receiving a series of images or a video capture with an image-capturing unit of the smartphone. Finally, the image series or video capture is evaluated using a data processing unit of the smartphone, wherein the emission detected during the fall time is compared with stored reference data in order to verify the authenticity of the security feature.
The invention relates to a smartphone-verifiable security feature (01) containing a luminescent material which can be excited to luminescence by visible electromagnetic radiation generated by a smartphone and, after termination of the excitation, exhibits an emission which can be detected by means of an image-capturing unit of the smartphone for a decay time in the range of 1 ms to 100 ms. The invention also relates to an assembly for verifying a security document (02) which comprises such a security feature (01).
