and many more
The PicoMaster range of holographic systems are capable of creating high frequency gratings which are only visible at very sharp viewing angles. Stitching-free lines, laser hidden images and letter lens effects provide a good starting point for security purposes. Our high speed system is ideal for the production of Fresnel lenses and other blazed grating images.
In our laboratory we can process, write and measure state-of-the-art demo samples. Please feel free to contact us or your nearest distributor for any inquiries.
Excellent performance in creating micro structures
PicoMaster holographic originaton systems are capable of creating high frequency gratings which are only visible at very sharp viewing angles. Together with the unique stitching-free lines and letter lens effects this forms an excellent starting point to create applications for security purposes.
Dedicated holographic software PicoMaster Machine Controller and PicoHLD (Pico Hologram & Lens Designer) help the user to easily combine pre-installed effects and images, process jobs and control the machine. This reduces preparation time to the minimum and gives a high level of manual control features.
Project manager tool
Project manager is a dedicated user-friendly tool for combining images from several sources and giving each image a different effect. Each image within the total design can have transparent parts, be scaled, rotated and ordered in front of or behind other images. The design software PicoHLD (Holographic and Lens Designer) also allows the user to add some build in effects for which no source image is required, such as Fresnel lenses, backgrounds, etc.
User libraries
The PicoMaster software supports user libraries. These libraries can be written in C# or VB.net. With them a user can create own algorithms to calculate the laser intensity at each grid point. This allows the user to generate its own proprietary unique effects.
When your area of interest is not mentioned in the listed sample effects please feel free to contact us or your nearest distributor and find out how our versatile systems and expertise may fit your needs.
White background effect
Uniform white diffusor
PicoMaster Holographic write systems can create a white uniform back effect. This effect is realized by writing a diffractive diffusor pattern. The pseudo-random nature of the diffractive diffusor ensures that the effect appears white from any viewing angle.
In our laboratory we can process, write and measure state-of-the-art demo samples. Please feel free to contact us or your nearest distributor for any inquiries.
Directional white effect
Diffuse white effects with a narrow viewing angle.
The PicoMaster holographic origination systems can generate diffuse white effects that have a narrow viewing angle. The effect is made using a direction diffractive diffuser. This enables you to make white switch effects and white image effects.

Multi-level Diffractive Optical Elements (DOE) (Letter Lens effect)
Write multi-level diffractive optical elements with a PicoMaster-H system.
The system includes our user-friendly software PICOHLD (Hologram and Lens Designer) that generates several types of DOE patterns, such as laser hidden images and letter lens effects.
Laser hidden image
A Laser hidden image is a DOE that projects an image when illuminated with a collimated laser beam. Laser hidden images can be used as covert security features since they are not visible to the naked eye.
Multi level laser hidden image:
Letter lens effects
The letter lens effect is a custom DOE pattern that looks like a cloudy lens. However, when you shine a spotlight on the DOE, an image appears inside the lens.
In our laboratory we can process, write and measure state-of-the-art demo samples. Please feel free to contact us or your nearest distributor for any inquiries.
Fresnel Lens
Create outstanding fresnel lens effects in both thick and thin fresnel lenses.
Fresnel lenses are made by writing sawtooth shaped grooves in the photoresist. PicoMaster holographic origination systems can write both thin and thick Fresnel lenses. This means that the Fresnel lenses are suitable for hot-embossing or for UV replication techniques.
In our laboratory we can process, write and measure state-of-the-art demo samples. Please feel free to contact us or your nearest distributor for any inquiries.
Fresnel relief image
Create Fresnel relief image effects with PicoMaster-H systems.
The Fresnel image effect can either be generated from a grayscale depth image or from a black and white image.
In our laboratory we can process, write and measure state-of-the-art demo samples. Please feel free to contact us or your nearest distributor for any inquiries.
Broken white Fresnel relief effect
The Picomaster can create a unique broken white Fresnel relief effect. The broken white effect is realized by writing irregularly shaped sawtooth. The irregular shape of the sawtooth creates a diffuse broken white effect.
In our laboratory we can process, write and measure state-of-the-art demo samples. Please feel free to contact us or your nearest distributor for any inquiries.
Uniform gratings
Ideal for security purposes: no stitching lines! Very high-quality optical effects.
PicoMaster systems write large uniform diffraction gratings without visible stitching lines. This results in a very high-quality optical effect. This is an excellent starting point to create effects as a security feature, since in many other holographic origination systems the stitching pattern is visible.
In our laboratory we can process, write and measure state-of-the-art demo samples. Please feel free to contact us or your nearest distributor for any inquiries.
High frequency grating
Security feature: high frequency diffraction grating only visible under a very steep angle.
PicoMaster systems write very high frequency diffraction gratings. It is possible to write gratings with a pitch down to 450nm. This type of high frequency diffraction grating only becomes visible when illuminated under a very steep angle. Under typical viewing conditions the grating is not visible. This effect is very suitable to serve as a security feature.

True color 3D effect
Create true Color 3D stereogram effects with the PicoMaster Holographic systems.
A 3D Stereogram effect is freely customised in PicoMaster Project Manager. Adjust the number of image frames, the pixel pattern and viewing conditions according to your need.
In our laboratory we can process, write and measure state-of-the-art demo samples. Please feel free to contact us or your nearest distributor for any inquiries.
Diffraction grid
PicoMaster holographic origination systems create a uniform colourful effect that is visible from many different viewing angles. This effect is ideal for filling large surface areas with a uniform effect.
In our laboratory we can process, write and measure state-of-the-art demo samples. Please feel free to contact us or your nearest distributor for any inquiries.
Curved gratings
Due to the flexible writing method of the PicoMaster-H systems, many types of diffraction gratings can be written, for example, curved grating patterns. Customize the shape and profile of the grating according to your need.
