Extracting Watermark from 3D Prints

We propose a method of extracting watermark from 3D prints created from 3D mesh data. The watermark is embedded to the 3D mesh in the spectral domain using a robust, imperceptible, and informed algorithm based on the spread spectrum technique, and then extracted from 3D prints by reconstructing the 3D mesh homologous to the original. A suspect 3D mesh is reconstructed accurately and robustly from noisy and incomplete 3D scans of the 3D prints,...
