Robust watermarking techniques for authentication of printed copies through digital camera capture

Within the digital processing field, the aim of this thesis is to validate a robust image watermarking method and, afterwards, the authentication of these watermarks when images are printed and captured by a digital camera. This aim is focused to a specific business application: the sale of soccer s...

This aim is focused to a specific business application: the sale of soccer sticker collections in both virtual and printed versions: printed images with the watermark will be captured by a digital camera of a smart-phone and later processed to detect the watermark. Thus, the purpose of the whole system is to analyze the robustness for uniquely identifying printed copies of those stickers for fan collectors. The work is organized into four chapters.
