Abstract
The invention relates to a method for watermark embedding in multi views video comprising a plurality of views captured with a plurality of cameras comprising for each view a step of projecting the view onto a domain invariant to the plurality of views and to intermediate synthesized view, which depends on the locations, orientations, and intrinsic parameters of the cameras, resulting into an invariant vector; a step of applying a watermarking algorithm to the invariant vector resulting into a watermarked invariant vector; and a step of modifying the view to obtain a watermarked view, wherein said watermarked view when projected onto the invariant domain results into the watermarked invariant vector. The invention also relates to a method for watermark detection in a rendered view comprising a step of projecting the rendered view onto an invariant domain to the plurality of views resulting into an invariant rendered vector; a step of applying a watermark detection algorithm to the invariant rendered vector in order to assess the presence of a watermark.
