Abstract
An article of manufacture, comprising, an artifact formed from at least a portion of at least one continuous artifact fiber, the artifact fiber dyed by a first digitally controlled dyeing process to exhibit a visible first color section and a visible color gradient section transitioning from and visibly distinguishable from the first color section; and, a textile portion, comprising at least one dyed fiber that has been dyed by a second digitally controlled dyeing process; wherein said artifact fiber is dyed by the first dyeing process applying metadata, said metadata relating to at least said first color, and wherein said textile portion fiber is dyed at least said first color by the second dyeing process applying said metadata.
Claims20
An article of manufacture, comprising, an artifact formed from at least a portion of at least one continuous artifact fiber, the artifact fiber dyed by a first digitally controlled dyeing process to exhibit a visible first color section and a visible color gradient section transitioning from and visibly distinguishable from the first color section;
- and,
- a textile portion, comprising at least one dyed fiber that has been dyed by a second digitally controlled dyeing process;
- wherein said artifact fiber is dyed by the first dyeing process applying metadata, said metadata relating to at least said first color, and wherein said textile portion fiber is dyed at least said first color by the second dyeing process applying said metadata.
A system for producing an artifact authenticating a digitally controlled dyeing process, comprising:
- a digitally controlled dyeing machine configured to dye at least one continuous thread to exhibit a first color section, and a color gradient section transitioning from said first color section, a controller configured to digitally control the digitally controlled dyeing machine to dye the continuous thread such that an artifact subsequently formed from the dyed thread exhibits at least a portion of the color gradient section, as distinguished from said first color section, thereby authenticating said dyeing process respective of said artifact.
A method for producing an artifact for authenticating a digitally controlled dyeing process, the method comprising:
- digitally controlling a dyeing process for at least one continuous thread to dye said at least one continuous thread to exhibit at least a first color section and a color gradient section transitioning from said first color section;
- dyeing said continuous thread to exhibit said at least a first color section and said at least a color gradient section transitioning from said first color section;
- and
- forming said artifact from at least a portion of said continuous color gradient section of said at least one continuous thread, wherein said artifact exhibits said continuous color gradient section as distinguished from said first color section, thereby authenticating said dyeing process.
