Abstract

This paper presents novel hardware architecture for watermarking unit which can be used with the JPEG2000 compression standard. We have presented dual watermark detection which is also novelty of our algorithm. Hardware assisted watermarking offers advantages over the software implementations in terms of less area, power consumption, real time. The objective is to develop the real time low cost and robust watermarking hardware which can be incorporated with existing systems such as digital camera, scanners, camcorders etc. We have implemented CDF 5/3 wavelet filters with lifting scheme which requires less hardware and memory efficient. The present algorithm was tested with standard benchmark software StirMark. The experimental result shows that the proposed scheme of watermarking is robust against most of the geometric attacks scaling, rotation, remove lines and cropping.
