With the rapid development of computer technology and network communication technology, copyright protection caused by widely spread digital media has become the focus of attention in various fields. For digital media watermarking technology research emerge in endlessly, but the results are not ideal. In order to better realize the copyright identification and protection, based on the embedded intelligent edge computing detection technology, this paper studies the zero watermark copyright protection algorithm of digital media. Firstly, this paper designs an embedded intelligent edge detection module based on Sobel operator, including image line buffer module, convolution calculation module and threshold processing module. Then, based on the embedded intelligent edge detection module, the Arnold transform of image scrambling technology is used to preprocess the watermark, and finally a zero watermark copyright protection algorithm is constructed. At the same time, the robustness of the proposed algorithm is tested. The image is subjected to different proportion of clipping and scaling attacks, different types of noise, sharpening and blur attacks, and the detection rate and signal-to-noise ratio of each algorithm are calculated respectively. The performance of the watermark image processed by this algorithm is evaluated subjectively and objectively. Experimental data show that the detection rate of our algorithm is the highest, which is 0.89. In scaling attack, the performance of our algorithm is slightly lower than that of Fourier transform domain algorithm, but it is better than the other two algorithms. The Signal to Noise Ratio of the algorithm is 36.854% in P6 multiplicative noise attack, 39.638% in P8 sharpening edge attack and 41.285% in fuzzy attack. This shows that the algorithm is robust to conventional attacks. The subjective evaluation of 33% and 39% of the images is 5 and 4. The mean values of signal to noise ratio, peak signal to noise ratio, mean square error and mean absolute difference are 20.56, 25.13, 37.03 and 27.64, respectively. This shows that the watermark image processed by this algorithm has high quality. Therefore, the digital media zero watermark copyright protection algorithm based on embedded intelligent edge computing detection is more robust, and its watermark invisibility is also very superior, which is worth promoting.
