Three types of Trickprint® that can be produced in-house with data conversion services

The following three types of TRICK PRINT® can be produced in-house through our "Data Conversion Service".

flash print
flash print
This is a magic printing technology that retroreflects incident light to reveal different designs. When you take a flash photo with a smartphone or digital camera, it reflects the light and makes the hidden patterns and characters emit light, which can be recorded by the camera. 

*The picture changes even when viewed with headlights.
relight print
relight print
This is a magic printing technology that switches to a different design when the back of the print is exposed to light. When combined with LED lighting programs, it can be used to create animated effects. 
bellows print
bellows print
This magic print technology allows you to switch to a completely different design by changing the viewing angle (left, right, up, down). Since this technology does not use lenticular lenses, but is completed by printing with layers of ink, it is easy to make large format products and easy to install. When viewed from a certain angle, two different designs are switched.
