While previous literatures on digital watermarking mechanisms mostly focus on 2D images, videos, sound, and text, relatively few works are on the 3D objects. In this paper, we have proposed a blind and robust watermarking mechanism for 3D polygon meshes based on geometry image. Since the geometry image is essentially stored as a 2D color image, we can apply most watermarking methods on 2D images as well. Through the experiments, we have found that the new blind watermarking approach to be very robust and efficient.
