Abstract

Recursive visual cryptography scheme (RVCS) is a high-security image secret sharing scheme in which the shares are recursively encoded into sub-shares at numerous levels. Here we presented a new scheme for RVCS with a perfect reconstruction of white pixels (PRWP) and an additional basis matrix (ABM) which boosts contrast. The method has been illustrated on the basis of investigational examinations. We made an evaluation between the conventional schemes and the proposed scheme through investigational analysis. The results revealed that our scheme improves the visual quality and ensures security and reliability.
