- a security feature is understood to be any feature that makes it difficult or simply impossible to simply copy, copy or falsify.
- security features are known in the art. Some of these security features, as well as a portion of the information stored in a security and / or security document, such as personalization information characterizing and / or identifying a person to whom the document is associated, or a value of a value document, can be optically read and be verified.
- visually perceptible security features are known, which can usually only be evaluated by means of mechanical support. These include, for example, one- or two-dimensional stroke or
- Security features that can only be read and / or verified by machine.

- optical information is encoded in a narrow wavelength range, then embodiments are also conceivable in which, for example, a hologram or grating are used as a reflection unit.
- a major problem in simultaneously and jointly detecting the front and back of a value and / or security document with a detection unit is that the path lengths of the light containing the information from the
