New Approach for Hiding Data in Colored Images

This research produces a new method for hiding text messages in a colored image by converting the text to a sequence of bits that are embedded within the image. The algorithm depends on a secret key between sender and receiver, and part of the pixels of the original image; it also depends on mathematical functions and matrices to increase the complexity. The embedded data will never affect the image in any recognized manner for the human eyes since the changes made on each group of pixels are no more than one or two least significant bits.
