Abstract
Systems and methods for dynamically and automatically generating digital watermarks are provided. Watermark payloads utilized in generating the digital watermarks are altered based upon changing conditions, such as environmental characteristics associated with playback or distribution of media content. Changing conditions may also encompass a change in the distribution/presentation chain of devices associated with the playback or distribution of the media content.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- presenting a first portion of media content in an environment having one or more characteristics, the first portion of the media content having a first watermark payload;
- while presenting the first portion of the media content, detecting a first change in the one or more characteristics of the environment;
- generating a second watermark payload based upon the first change in the one or more characteristics of the environment;
- embedding the second watermark payload in a second portion of the media content, wherein the second portion of the media content follows the first portion of the media content;
- and
- presenting the second portion of the media content in the environment, the second portion of the media content having the second watermark payload.

A device comprising:
- a memory including a computer code;
- and
- a processor configured to execute the computer code to:
- present a first portion of media content in an environment having one or more characteristics, the first portion of the media content having a first watermark payload;
- while presenting the first portion of the media content, detect a first change in the one or more characteristics of the environment;
- generate a second watermark payload based upon the first change in the one or more characteristics of the environment;
- embed the second watermark payload in a second portion of the media content, wherein the second portion of the media content follows the first portion of the media content;
- and
- present the second portion of the media content in the environment, the second portion of the media content having the second watermark payload.
