US Patent 11019407 Systems and methods for providing watermarked content

A content processing system obtains an identification associated with a device configured to receive content, generates a digital watermark reflecting the receiving device's identification, provides watermarked content by including the digital watermark in the content, and transmits the watermarked content from an edge computing device to the receiving device for the playback. The digital watermark is not visually observable during playback of the watermarked content, and it enables tracking of transmission of the watermarked content.
