Digimarc Corporation, an innovative technology provider based in Oregon, invented the patented, imperceptible Digimarc Barcode for automatically identifying and interacting with virtually any media. Imperceptible to most consumers, these machine-readable Digimarc Barcodes do all that visible barcodes do, but perform better. They can be applied to audio, video, imagery and product packaging, making each more powerful by delivering near instant access to data and interactive experiences. These remarkable capabilities support content protection and antipiracy applications for documents, photos and ebooks, and drive faster retail checkout, power greater product transparency, and empower interactive media and entertainment.
