Invisible Light</b> (<b>VEIL</b>) is a technology for encoding low-bandwidth digital data <a href="/wiki/Bitstream" title="Bitstream">bitstream</a> in video signal, developed by <a href="/w/index.php?title=VEIL_Interactive_Technologies&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="VEIL Interactive Technologies (page does not exist)">VEIL Interactive Technologies</a>. VEIL is compatible with multiple formats of video signals, including <a href="/wiki/PAL" title="PAL">PAL</a>, <a href="/wiki/SECAM" title="SECAM">SECAM</a>, and <a href="/wiki/NTSC" title="NTSC">NTSC</a>. The technology is based on a <a href="/wiki/Steganography" title="Steganography">steganographically</a> encoded data stream in the <a href="/wiki/Luminance" title="Luminance">luminance</a> of the <a href="/wiki/Composite_video" title="Composite video">videosignal</a>. </p><p>A recent application of VEIL, the VEIL Rights Assertion Mark (VRAM or V-RAM) is a copy-restriction signal that can be used to ask devices to apply <a href="/wiki/Digital_rights_management" title="Digital rights management">DRM</a> technology. This has been seen as analogous to the <a href="/wiki/Broadcast_flag" title="Broadcast flag">broadcast flag</a>. It is also known as "<a href="/wiki/CGMS-A" title="CGMS-A">CGMS-A</a> plus VEIL" and "broadcast flag on steroids." </p><p>There are two versions of VEIL on the market: </p> <ul><li><b>VEIL-I</b>, or <b>VEIL 1</b>, has raw speed of 120 <a href="/wiki/Bits_per_second" class="mw-redirect" title="Bits per second">bits per second</a>. It is used for unidirectional communication (TV→devices) with simple devices or toys, and to deliver <a href="/wiki/Coupon" title="Coupon">coupons</a> with TV <a href="/wiki/Advertising" title="Advertising">advertising</a>. It manipulates the <a href="/wiki/Luminance" title="Luminance">luminance</a> of the video signal in ways difficult to perceive to human eye.</li> <li><b>VEIL-II</b>, or <b>VEIL 2</b>, has speed of 7200-bit/s and is one of the technologies of choice for <a href="/wiki/Interactive_television" title="Interactive television">interactive television</a>, as it allows communication with VEIL servers through devices equipped with backchannels. VEIL-II-capable <a href="/wiki/Set-top_box" title="Set-top box">set-top boxes</a> can communicate with other devices via <a href="/wiki/WiFi" class="mw-redirect" title="WiFi">WiFi</a>, <a href="/wiki/Bluetooth" title="Bluetooth">Bluetooth</a>, or other short-range wireless technologies. VEIL 2 manipulates the average luminance of the alternate lines of the signal, where one is slightly raised and the other one is slightly lowered (or vice versa), encoding a bit in every pair of lines.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li></ul> <p>The symbols (groups of 4 data bits) transmitted by VEIL-II system are encoded as "PN sequences", sequences of 16 "chips". Groups of 4 chips are encoded in pairs of lines. Each line pair is split to 4 parts, where the luminance is raised or lowered (correspondingly vice versa in the other line). In NTSC, 4-bit symbols are encoded in groups of 8 scan lines. With 224 lines per field this equals 112 bits per field, or 7200 bits per second of broadcast. VEIL-II uses scan lines 34 to 258. The PN stands for "pseudo noise" and signifies the 0.5/0.5 relative frequencies of ones and zeroes. In practice, 20 chips per line are preferred, increasing redundancy and allowing for better error detection. The PN encoding is a form of <a href="/wiki/Spread_spectrum" title="Spread spectrum">spread spectrum</a> modulation. </p><p>Stripping the VEIL signal from the video is supposed to be more difficult than tampering with the VBI, therefore VEIL-I is proposed as a <a href="/wiki/Digital_rights_management" title="Digital rights management">DRM</a> tool. The signal can survive recording to video, and various sorts of digital compression. The detection devices are low-cost and can be used in a range of devices, from toys to cellphones. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Use_in_toys">Use in toys</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Video_Encoded_Invisible_Light&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Use in toys"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The technology was developed for <i><a href="/wiki/The_Batman_(TV_series)" title="The Batman (TV series)">The Batman</a></i> TV series, for transmitting data from the video on-screen to a line of <a href="/wiki/Batman" title="Batman">Batman</a> toys based on the series, supplying them with information about the series and unlocking their hidden capabilities.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>For example: </p> <ul><li>The Batwave Communicator Handheld Device, when within 10 feet in the line of sight from the TV, will show engine graphics, diagnostics, weapon systems, and enables various games stored in the device.</li> <li>Batwave Batman <a href="/wiki/Action_figure" title="Action figure">Action Figure</a> will pop wings from its back and light up the emblem on its chest when subjected to the videosignal from the TV.</li> <li>Batwave <a href="/wiki/Batmobile" title="Batmobile">Batmobile</a> with Handheld Device will turn on various LEDs acting as its lights, play sounds, and "capture" various weapons from the show.</li></ul> <p>This technology is also used in other toys, for example <a href="/wiki/Toby_Terrier" title="Toby Terrier">Toby Terrier</a>. </p><p>VEIL was used in various ad campaigns<sup class="noprint Inline-Template" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(geographic_names)" title="Wikipedia:Naming conventions (geographic names)"><span title="The geographic scope near this tag is ambiguous.
