Moreover, there is an urgent need to protect the 3D data properties for preventing unauthorized reproduction. The 3D digital watermarking technology is one of the best solutions to protect data from piracy during transmission through the internet. The current work proposed a novel robust watermarking scheme of polygonal meshes for copyright protection purposes. The proposed algorithm is based on the characteristics of the mesh geometry to embed a sequence of data bits into the object by slightly adjusting the vertex positions. Furthermore, the proposed method used a blind detection scheme. The watermarked model is perceptually indistinguishable from the original one and the embedded watermark is invariant to affine transformation. Through simulations, the quality of the watermarked object as well as the inserted watermark robustness against various types of attacks were tested and evaluated to prove the validity and the efficiency of our algorithm.}, year = {2016}, journal = {International Journal of Interactive Multimedia and Artificial Intelligence}, volume = {4}, number = {2}, pages = {46-51}, month = {12/2016}, issn = {1989-1660}, url = {http://www.ijimai.org/journal/sites/default/files/files/2016/11/ijimai20164_2_8_pdf_17392.pdf}, doi = {10.9781/ijimai.2016.428}, }
