Semacode. A System of using a printed image, similar to bar codes which a Mobile camera phone can scan in and link to a relevant WAP site. This saves the users having to type in WAP site addresses. It may be used for longer address which are difficult to type in correctly.
This may seem complex -- and technically, it is -- but on the surface it is a very simple system to use and learn. By connecting users from physical media to mobile
content
management system, the system creates new ways to interact with the objects and media that surround us (including augmented reality, remote presence, social software and location tagging). In each field, be it marketing, tourism, games, etc., there are a number of opportunities to use this technology to improve the way people interact and communicate.
In addition, this is an open system. Anyone can create as many semacode tags for as many different URLs as they wish. Millions, even. As long as you own the domain name, the tagging system is completely unrestricted. Better yet, all of the software tools are available freely for non-commercial use. Therefore it is possible to build a complete system (for non-commercial purposes) without restrictions.
With the correct type of Mobile camera phone and software you should be able to take a picture of this and it will link to our WAP site without having to type the WAP address into your browser.)
QR
Codes are a type of two-dimensional barcode, which are also known as
hardlinks or physical world hyperlinks. QR Codes store text, which can
be a URL, contact information, telephone number, even whole verses of
poems! QR codes can be read by any device that has the appropriate
software installed. Such devices range from dedicated QR code readers to
mobile phones.
What if you could decide where to shop, eat or hang out, with a
little help from local Google users?
To scan the codes, you'll need a phone with a camera and an app that can read QR codes. For Android-powered devices,
including the Droid by Motorola, we recommend using the free Barcode
Scanner app. For iPhone,
QuickMark app,
to offer the app for free for the first 40,000 downloads. For other
devices, we recommend searching for "QR reader" in your app marketplace,
if it has one, or searching for the
model of your phone and [qr reader] on Google.
BeeTagg
and NeoReader are two
other apps that we've found to work well with the decals.
Bokode A
system takes a good bit of mathematics and a healthy enthusiasm for optics.
It conveys its secret information to anyone who knows the trick. The material
MIT published, and frankly there is quite a bit, and thought finding a low tech
way to play and spread the technology around would be pretty fun.
The Camera Culture group presents Bokodes, tiny imperceptible barcodes that can
be read by a standard camera positioned up to four meters away to decode
identity, and six-degree-of-freedom pose (angle and distance).
Bokode Wikipedia
Dubbed the
Bokode, the system uses a clever focusing technique that allows a
small beam of light to hold a wealth of easily accessible information.
Bokodes are based on the "bokeh effect" in photography, where light
blurs into a round blob as a lens focuses to infinity. The LED in the
center of the image above is actually projecting a series of tiny 2D
barcodes through a lens that defocuses the images. Even though these
images appear out of focus to the naked eye, when your camera lens
focuses to infinity the tiny 2D barcodes can be read. The visual demo in
the video below helps conceptualize how the technology works. Because
the system is able to hold so many 2D barcodes in a such small space, a
Bokode can store thousands of bits of data. There's enough storage space
on a Bokode that it can both identify what you are buying at the grocery
store and display the entire nutritional facts label.

Advice: Recommended. This will make it easier for users to find more information about your product. Wireless Technology is improving all the time. There are a limited number of WAP, Wireless Applications Protocol, sites compared to WEB sites. This could mean that a WAP site has a better site of being found. The time take to initially resolve WAP pages and expense of mobile phone time while viewing WAP sites may be off putting. Therefore smaller WAP sites which state your main products and service and your main web site address is a better idea. Pint-out on leaflets and other off-line items, etc.
There has bee a MAJOR growth in the publishing of and use of Mobile Phone App's. Multi-Millions of users have and use mobile phone applications. Mobile phone applications should be one of the ways you shout market your products and services. Keep a close interest on this developing market potential. There may still be issues relating to the implementation of code of various Mobile Phone makes and types. The market is still developing and you may need to make consent changes to stay up to date.
Recommended if not abused. This will make it easier for users to find more information about your product. Wireless Technology is improving all the time. Using Pixecode on things could help drive more visitors to any Mobile App as these will make it easier to discover any Mobile address, etc.
