System and method for embedding dynamic marks into visual images in a detectable manner

摘要

Systems and methods for providing a dynamic mark with a video, The methods comprise: receiving a sequence of symbols uniquely identifying an entity and video; mapping each symbol to an image pattern of a plurality of different image patterns to form a sequence of First Active Image Patterns, Each FAIP exclusively comprises first pattern regions for encoding symbols. At least two pattern regions are rendered with at least one color other than a background color for the image pattern. The first pattern regions are arranged in a non- grid like pattern. Each first pattern region has a non-square shape with a single side boundary line directly abutting a single side boundary line of at least one other first partem region. The FAIPs are then caused to be displayed along with the video in a detectable and decodable manner
