Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An optionally transferable optical system with a reduced thickness is provided. The inventive optical system is basically made up of a synthetic image presentation system in which one or more arrangements of structured image icons are substantially in contact with, but not completely embedded within, one or more arrangements of focusing elements. The focusing element and image icon arrangements cooperate to form at least one synthetic image. By way of the subject invention, the requirement for an optical spacer to provide the necessary focal distance between the focusing elements and their associated image icons(s) is removed. As a result, overall system thicknesses are reduced, suitability as a surface, applied authentication system is enabled, and tamper resistance is improved.
