Verimatrix Documents the Increasing Role of Watermarking in Revenue Security at SMPTE 05

SMPTE 2015 Annual Technical Conference, Hollywood Oct. 22, 2015 Verimatrix, the specialist in securing and enhancing revenue for multi-network, multi-screen digital TV services around the globe, today announced its upcoming presence at Society of Motion Picture & Television Engineers (SMPTE) 2015 Annual Technical Conference & Exhibition in Hollywood, Oct. 26-29. VP of Advanced Technology Niels Thorwirth will present recent advances in the scope and role of digital watermarking and its increasing impact in video security, user behavior tracking, and the latest deployments in ultra HD (UHD) video services.

Thorwirth's presentation, Enabling Watermarking in a Diverse Content Distribution Infrastructure, will showcase his paper that explores the different scenarios for forensic watermarking, and practical solutions for a range of delivery networks, from DVB with one-way communication to adaptive bitrate (ABR) streaming with different integration workflows, on Oct. 27 at 4:45 pm during the Tracking Digital Content track in Salon 1.

Until recently, digital watermarking has often been an afterthought in design, creating a challenging environment to integrate and distribute digital watermarks, particularly within a multi-screen, multi-network architecture. Thorwirth will highlight the considerations for deploying a scalable process for watermarking embedding, including tradeoffs between client-side and server-side watermarks and show feasible implementation scenarios for a broad range of content delivery methods.

This year's SMPTE 2015 Annual Technical Conference & Exhibition in Hollywood is a three-day event that will showcase a breadth of symposium topics such as virtual and augmented reality, unique networking opportunities and overall insight into the future of the motion imaging industry.
