چکیده

In this paper we present a method for reading a watermark from a dual layer hologram image with a digital camera. Here the base of the hologram out of which the hologram was designed is a binary image. The hologram obtained is placed on a planar surface and an image is captured from the hologram by setting up a light source and a digital camera on appropriate distances and angles relative to the hologram. The captured image is corrected from affine distortions and a saliency detector based segmentation is performed for the image. The watermark is read from the resulting reconstructed binary image. The obtained results show that the watermark can be recovered perfectly from a dual layer hologram with a proper setting of the camera and light sources.

Digital Watermark Detection in Visual Multimedia Content

Digital watermarking has been proposed as a technology to ensure copyright protection by embedding an imperceptible, yet detectable signal in visual multimedia content such as images or video. Watermark detection is an integral component of a watermarking system. This cumulative thesis addresses watermark detection problems in important application domains such as scalable multimedia, raw/demos...

Hologram-based watermarking capable of surviving print-scan process.

We propose a watermarking scheme for hardcopy pictures based on computer-generated holography. A hologram of the watermark is produced using a conjugate-symmetric extension technique, and its spectrum is inserted into the discrete cosine transform domain of the image. Adjusting the watermark placement in a data array, a trade-off between transparency and robustness is achieved. Anticropping and...

Robust Digital Image Watermarking Algorithm against RST Attacks using Self-patch Correlation

In this paper, we propose an effective watermarking scheme using self-patch correlation based on Radon transform for image. The robustness against Rotation, Scaling, and Translation (RST) attacks is achieved using the translation property of the Radon transform and self-patch correlation. The Radon transform emphasizes and detects the linear characteristic to calculate the angle of image rotati...

Computer Generated Hologram for SemiFragile Watermarking with Encrypted Images

The protection of the contents of digital products is referred to as content authentication. In some applications, to be able to authenticate a digital product could be extremely essential. For example, if a digital product is used as a piece of evidence in the court, its integrity could mean life or death of the accused. Generally, the problem of content authentication can be solved using semi...

Cascaded Fresnel digital hologram and its application to watermarking

A cascaded Fresnel digital hologram (CFDH) is proposed, together with its mathematical derivation. Its application to watermarking has been demonstrated by a simulation procedure, in which the watermark image to be hidden is encoded into the phase of the host image. The watermark image can be deciphered by the CFDH setup, the reconstructed image shows good quality and the error is almost close ...
