We want to create an IP which can curb Intelluctual property theft using Stegnography alogorithms(LSB - bit manipulation). By this, each image will be having a secret Identifier embedded in it which is not visible to human eyes, which can be used to check the ownership.
Since Intelluctual property theft is becoming a common act in current world scenario, companies or authorities can use this ip to embed secret identifiers in their media productions. So that we can easily identify plagarized images by checking the byte data. Doing small changes to the values for some pixels of one colour image won't be possible for human eyes to see those modified pixels but It is possible to do it on a software. These modified pixels represent a message somehow.
**Use Case 2** :
Doing small changes to the values for some pixels of an image won't be possible for human eyes to see those modified pixels but It is possible to do it on a software. These modified pixels represent a message somehow.
Use Case 1: once decided on the area for embedding information we can use follow bit manipulation technique

In order for both parties to agree on the secret, An algorithm must be implemented. This Algorithm accepts the user message and change some pixels values of an Image. Pixel values modification is based on a specific criteria (not decided yet). For example , If the sender wants to send the number "5" as a secret message , The algorithm could change 5 pixel values in the image which makes these 5 pixels have a unique value. and in the receiver part , the algorithm will calculate the number of modified pixels and identify the sender message.
1. Setting the pixel area for embedding the secret identifier through register map.
2. Sending the images bytes as stream
3. udpating or manipulating the pixels
