Hiding a secret colour image in two colour images
Abstract:Abstract

Visual cryptography is different from traditional cryptography. That is, neither time-consuming computation nor complex cryptographic knowledge is needed. Stacking is the only operation required to recover a secret image, and the individual image does not give the hackers any information about the secret image. None of researches tried to deal with meaningful colour share transparencies. Hence, two methods are proposed for hiding a colour image in two meaningful colour share transparencies in this paper. To achieve this goal, the colour decomposition approach and halftone technology are first applied to cope with secret colour images. Then the concept of the human visual system is utilized to generate two colour meaningful sharing transparencies. To support various applications, two variants are presented. The first proposed method, method-1, is suitable for simple colour images, and the second, method-2, provides better visibility of complex colour images.
