VCMS/AV Finished Detectors for Embedded Platforms

The Verance Copy Management System for Audiovisual Content (VCMS/AV) employs proprietary audio watermarking techniques to enable the communication and enactment of use policies for audiovisual content across a broad range of distribution channels and devices.

VCMS/AV has been adopted as a component of the AACS content protection system and inclusion of a the VCMS/AV Detector will be required for all Blu-ray and HD DVD players manufactured after November 1, 2008.

To facilitate Blu-ray and HD DVD component and player manufacturers with the successful and timely integration of VCMS/AV technology with their products, Verance is offering a line of ready-to-use object-code libraries (“Verance Finished Detectors”) that implement the VCMS/AV Detector technology. This enables Verance Finished Detector customers to reduce their engineering effort, product costs, and time-to-market.

Verance Finished Detectors have been certified by Verance to comply with the requirements of the VCMS/AV Detector specifications. There is no need for additional detector compliance validation or optimization, no source code to maintain and protect, and no requirement for specialized watermark technology or digital signal processing (DSP) expertise. Software robustness (i.e., tamper resistance) technology is not included, and must be applied to products including Finished Detectors prior to sale.
