Abstract
A digital watermark embedding apparatus includes an interface circuit which acquires video data and digital watermark information, and a processor which embeds the digital watermark information into the video data. The processor is adapted to, for each symbol contained in the digital watermark information, set a time segment, cause the area of a watermark pattern formed by a plurality of pixels having a prescribed value, and superimposed on each image contained in the video data, to vary in periodic fashion over time in the time segment according to the value of the symbol contained in the digital watermark information, and correct, using the prescribed value, the value of each pixel contained in a region where each image in the video data and the watermark pattern corresponding to that image overlap each other.
