Abstract
Visual cryptography is a secret sharing scheme that uses the human visual system to perform computations. In this article, we present some background to traditional secret-sharing schemes, then explain visual schemes, describing some of the basic construction techniques used. topics discussed include: two out of two scheme, two out of n schemes, and graph access structures
