Les techniques de dissimulation de données sont généralement appliquées au filigrane numérique ou aux empreintes digitales, utilisées pour protéger les droits de propriété intellectuelle ou pour éviter les copies illégales des œuvres originales. Il a été souligné que la dissimulation de données peut être utilisée comme moyen de communication. Dans les cadres de tatouage numérique conventionnels, il est nécessaire que la différence entre les objets de couverture et les objets stego soit assez petite, de sorte que la différence ne puisse pas être reconnue par les systèmes sensoriels humains. D'autre part, les auteurs ont proposé une technique de masquage de données « audibles » pour les signaux audio pouvant véhiculer des messages secrets et pouvant être naturellement reconnus comme une pièce musicale par les oreilles humaines. Dans cette étude, nous étendons l’idée selon laquelle les données audibles se cachent dans les signaux vidéo en utilisant les effets visuels. En tant qu'effets visuels, nous utilisons des effets de fondu d'entrée et de sortie qui peuvent être utilisés comme une sorte de rendu visuel pour les transitions de scène. Dans les schémas proposés, les messages secrets sont générés sous forme de codes-barres unidimensionnels qui sont utilisés pour des effets de fondu entrant ou sortant. Le présent article montre que les schémas proposés présentent une grande précision dans l’extraction des messages intégrés, même à partir des signaux vidéo capturés par les smartphones ou les tablettes. Il est également démontré que les signaux vidéo transmettant les messages intégrés peuvent être naturellement reconnus par les systèmes visuels humains grâce à des expériences d'évaluation subjective.

Abstract: Data hiding techniques are usually applied into digital watermarking or digital fingerprinting, which is used to protect intellectual property rights or to avoid illegal copies of the original works. It has been pointed out that data hiding can be utilized as a communication medium. In conventional digital watermarking frameworks, it is required that the difference between the cover objects and the stego objects are quite small, such that the difference cannot be recognized by human sensory systems. On the other hand, the authors have proposed a ‘hearable’ data hiding technique for audio signals that can carry secret messages and can be naturally recognized as a musical piece by human ears. In this study, we extend the idea of the hearable data hiding into video signals by utilizing the visual effects. As visual effects, we employ fade-in and fade-out effects which can be used as a kind of visual rendering for scene transitions. In the proposed schemes, secret messages are generated as one-dimensional barcodes which are used for fade-in or fade-out effects. The present paper shows that the proposed schemes have the high accuracy in extracting the embedded messages even from the video signals captured by smartphones or tablets. It is also shown that the video signals conveying the embedded messages can be naturally recognized by human visual systems through subjective evaluation experiments.
