Abstract
The disclosure relates to a system and method for consumers to identify articles at a place of sales before purchasing, which are high in security level, low in cost, mobile, high in availability and easy to use. The system and the method are based upon capture of the physical and logic features of a security label containing at least two security tracers applied to an article, and also upon local or remote processing, and at least one of the tracers comprises an invisible energy response material. The identification operation can be performed in a special and offline way by any system of registered consumers through a mobile communication device that has an image capture component and is combined with other particular functions of system software.
