Image Secret Sharing - Visual Cryptography and Secret Image Sharing - page 392

2. Color image sharing based on visual cryptography. If visual cryptog-

raphy could be implemented in color images, we could share color
images with visual cryptography. Since visual cryptography is per-
fectly secure, color image sharing based on visual cryptography will
be extremely robust.
