A method and apparatus for identifying articles (30) is disclosed. The method includes steps of: (a) providing a plurality of articles (30), each of the articles (30) having at least one portion (38) that includes a photonically active material; (b) for each article (30), illuminating the at least one portion (38) with light from a stimulus source (52); (c) identifying a location (50) of the at least one portion (38) by detecting an emission (56) from the photonically active material; (d) pointing an excitation source (44) at the identified location (50); and (e) illuminating the at least one portion (38) within the identified location (50) with light from the excitation source (44). A next step detects an information-encoded emission (62) from the photonically active material in response to the light from the excitation source (44). An optional step (g) sorts the articles (30) based on the detected emission (62).

L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil d'identification d'articles (30). Le procédé consiste: (a) à prendre plusieurs articles (30) présentant, chacun, au moins une partie (38) comportant un matériau photoniquement actif; (b) à éclairer une desdites parties (38) de chaque article (30) avec une lumière provenant d'une source d'excitation (52); (c) à identifier un emplacement (50) de ladite partie (38) par détection d'une émission (56) provenant du matériau photoniquement actif; (d) à diriger une source d'excitation (44) sur l'emplacement (50) identifié; et (e) à éclairer ladite partie (38) dans l'emplacement (50) identifié avec une lumière provenant de la source d'excitation (44). L'une des étapes suivantes consiste à détecter une émission (62) codée d'après de l'information, provenant du matériau photoniquement actif, en réponse à la lumière provenant de la source d'excitation (44). Une étape éventuelle (g) consiste à trier les articles (30) sur la base des émissions (62) détectées.
