57	Abstract	AB	Sicherheitscode zur Aufbringung auf Verpackungen, die z. B. pfandhaltig sind und über den so genannten Strichcode erkannt werden und das Risiko besteht, dass der Strichcode auf einfache Weise reproduziert wird, um somit das Rücknahme-Pfand-System zu manipulieren und um auf diese Weise unberechtigterweise Pfandgelder zu erwerben. Dieser Sicherheitscode besteht aus einer IR-Farbe oder in Kombination aus einer Farbe im sichtbaren Bereich, vorzugsweise schwarz, und der IR-Sicherheitsfarbe. Die eine Farbe ist für das menschliche Auge sichtbar und die andere Farbe ist als eine infrarote Farbe unsichtbar, oder alternativ wird eine andere sichtbare IR-Farbe verwendet. Des Weiteren besteht das Sicherheitszeichen aus einer individuell gestalteten Geometrie oder der EAN-Code wird ganz oder teilweise mit der Sicherheitsfarbe erstellt.$A Vorrichtung zum Sortieren und/oder Sammeln von Materialien, wie Mehrweg- und/oder Einweggetränkeverpackungen, wie beispielsweise PET-/Glasflaschen, Dosen, Becher etc., mit einer Einrichtung zum Erkennen des Sicherheitscodes des in den Eingaberaum eingebrachten Materials. Die Einrichtung zum Erkennen weist zumindest einen Sensor als Bildverarbeitungseinrichtung auf, die aus zwei verschiedenen Farbelementen dargestellte bildartige Darstellung auf der Basis des Wahrnehmungsbereiches des menschlichen Auges bei Bestrahlung der bildartigen Darstellung nur mit Normallicht (Tages- und/oder Kunstlicht) erkennt und unter zusätzlicher Bestrahlung mit ...
