The disclosed technology relates to methods, devices, systems and computer program products that facilitate access to metadata associated with a content. In one example, a method is described that includes receiving a multimedia content at a receiver device, extracting a watermark message from a first segment of the multimedia content, using at least a portion of the first watermark message to obtain additional information regarding the first segment of the multimedia content that includes the first watermark message, and associating and storing one or more values of the first watermark message and the additional information. The method further includes repeating the above operations to extract additional watermark messages from additional segments of the content and to form a table or array of items that can be accessed by specifying the one or more values of the first watermark message or one or more values of the additional watermark messages.

A watermark representing a link to an original video and/or metadata such as haptic metadata associated with the original video is embedded in the original video in such a way that a re-recording to the original video can still preserve the watermark. The watermark can be used to link to the original video or to the metadata related thereto.

Provided in the embodiments of the present application are a video watermark generation method and device, and a terminal, the method comprising: determining spatial-domain watermarks and time-domain values corresponding to each video image frame in a video file according to a preset spatial-domain watermark template and a time-domain watermark template, each spatial-domain watermark having the same number of pixel values; determining the edge distribution of each video image frame in the video file; and generating a watermark for the video file according to the spatial-domain watermarks and time-domain values which correspond to the each video image frame and the edge distribution of the each video image frame. The watermark generated by using the video watermark generation solution provided by the embodiments of the present application is better concealed and will not be easily discovered by malicious parties.

Systems and methods are described for obfuscating variants of content segments. Variants of content segments can be used to encode an identifying sequence in a transmission of content. The variants of the content segments can each include one or more marked frames and one or more unmarked frames. Variations can be introduced into the unmarked frames for each of the variants of the content segments.

The invention is a novel watermark in a media sequence and systems and methods for embedding and detecting the watermark. Different watermarks from a watermark set of pseudo random watermarks are selected (randomly or by a selection pattern) and each selected watermark is embedded in a different selected I-frame set of the media stream. Identifying the known sequence of watermarks in the stream of I-frames of a copy can identify the video stream from which the copy originates.

A method, computer system, and a computer program product for image capture prevention is provided. The present invention may include, in response to embedding at least one digital security mark in a visual communication, securing the visual communication. The present invention may also include preventing, based on the embedded at least one digital security mark, an image capture of the secured visual communication.

A method and system for controlling implementation of dynamic content modification. The disclosure provides for using at least one steganographically-encoded timestamp in a media stream transmitted to a media client as a basis to determine a transmission delay for media-stream transmission to the media client, and for providing the determined transmission delay as a basis to facilitate control over whether to have the media client implement dynamic content modification. In addition, the disclosure provides for receiving respectively from each of various media clients a report indicating transmission delay determined for the media client based on such steganographically-encoded timestamp data, and using the transmission delays for the media clients to establish a dynamic-content-modification footprint that could be used to control whether, where, and to what extent dynamic content modification will be applied.

The present invention generally relates to the field of automated and flexible information extraction and protection for graphical data. In particular, the invention provides a unique platform for analyzing, classifying, extracting, and processing information from images using deep learning image detection models. Embodiments of the inventions are configured to provide an end to end automated solution for intelligently hiding or obscuring private data from graphical displays via the use of embedded steganographic image data techniques.

A computer system for the creation of subliminal image or watermarks where the apparent video is an obvious image and a subliminal or clandestine image or watermark is hidden within the data structure. The concept is envisioned for the cloaking of images, sound, video or like digitized non-coded information. The cloaked files may be intended for storage, transmission, or clandestine placement in a public file system. The watermark may be used for the subliminal marking of a source of a file, its creation, or for tagging copyrighted information.

A client device receives a first image frame from a server, stores the first image frame and generates a first modified image that corresponds to the first image frame. The client transmits, to a remote device, the generated first modified image. The remote device uses the first modified image to determine the instruction for displaying the second image frame. The client receives, from the remote device, an instruction for displaying a second image frame. In response to receiving the instruction, the client device displays, on a display communicatively coupled to the client device, the second image frame.
