%Program Description
%This program generates a two-out-of-two Visual Cryptography Scheme shares.
%The input image for this program should be a binary image.
%The shares and the overlapping result of the shares are written as output.
%
%Usage:
%Input: inImg - A binary image
%Output: share1  - Generated share 1
%        share2  - Generated share 2
%        share12 - Overlapped result of shares 1 & 2

function [share1, share2, share12] = VisCrypt(inImg)

s = size(inImg);
share1 = zeros(s(1), (2 * s(2)));
share2 = zeros(s(1), (2 * s(2)));
