The present invention relates to detecting steganographically hiding images and information. In a preferred embodiment, an image is hidden within a media signal. The media preferably includes a cyan (C) color plane, a magenta (M) color plane, a yellow (Y) color plane and a black (K) color plane. In an alternative embodiment, the media includes a spot color. The image is converted into a black color channel image and is then applied to the media's K channel. The black channel image is inverted and the inverted image is applied to the media's CMY (or spot) color planes. For detection, the embedded media is illuminated with infrared light, which emphasizes the black color plane. An input device captures a digital image of the illuminated media. The image is detected or displayed based on the emphasized black plane.
1. A method to detect a first image hidden in a second image, the second image comprising a plurality of color channels, wherein the hiding of the first image in the second image comprises at least hiding a first image component in a first of the plurality of color channels, and in the same second i
1. A method to detect a first image hidden in a second image, the second image comprising a plurality of color channels, wherein the hiding of the first image in the second image comprises at least hiding a first image component in a first of the plurality of color channels, and in the same second image location, hiding the component in a second of the plurality of channels, the second channel component being inverted with respect to the first channel component, said method comprising: illuminating the embedded second image with infrared light; capturing a digital image of the illuminated second image; and analyzing the captured illuminated digital image to detect the first image. 2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the first image comprises at least one of a photograph, graphic, logo, barcode, digital watermark, image, text, message and orientation fiducial. 3. The method according to claim 2, wherein the first color channel comprises black, and the second color channel comprises cyan, magenta and yellow channels, wherein the second channel component is embedded in each of the cyan, magenta and yellow components, the second channel component being inverted in each of the cyan, magenta and yellow channels with respect to the first channel component. 4. The method according to claim 2, wherein the first color channel comprises black and the second color channel comprises cyan, magenta and yellow channels. 5. The method according to claim 4, wherein at least said black color channel conforms to standard web offset press (SWOP) standards. 6. The method according to claim 2, wherein the first color channel comprises black, and the second color channel comprises a spot color. 7. The method of claim 2, wherein the inverted nature of the second channel component with respect to the first channel component cancels localized luminance attributable to the hiding of the first channel component. 8. The method according to claim 1, further comprising shielding the media from visible light. 9. The method according to claim 1, further comprising the step of filtering visible light before said step of capturing a digital image. 10.
