FPGA Technology Based Video Watermarking

Abstract

With the availability of web cameras and high resolution mobile phones video contents are easy to be created.
Wide usage of video content demands effective provision of content ownership and copyright protection.
Effective video processing software should process 24 to 30 frames per second and deal with the complexity of video
watermarking algorithm to produce outcome with a reliable speed. As FPGAs have grown in capacity, improved in performance
and decreased in cost they have become a viable solution for performing computationally intensive task though this involves
intensive research on the hardware implementation of video watermarking algorithm.
This paper is mainly based on implementing video watermarking algorithms using FPGA technology and come up with an
effective embedded solution for video ownership.
