Deep Optical Cryptography: Joint Encryption and LC Lens Key Generation for Secure Displays

Journal of the Society for Information Display, EarlyView.
We propose a learning‐based visual cryptography system using a liquid crystal modulator for distance‐dependent optical decryption. By jointly optimizing ciphertext images and LC‐based optical keys with shift‐aware training, the framework ensures secure plaintext recovery only at designated distances.
