Optical structure for high-security printing, comprising a structure surface with multiple display region groups, each containing multiple display regions with reflective surfaces arranged at a pitch of 1-300 microns. Each display region produces an image in a unique direction, with display regions in each group having different azimuth angles. The groups are designed to produce images with distinct brightness levels, while maintaining a matching motif.
