Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- optically detecting an encoded pattern from source media, the encoded pattern associated with a gaming application;
decoding gaming data from the encoded pattern;
synchronizing the gaming data with the gaming application;
presenting device content based on the synchronizing of the gaming data with the gaming application;
processing a plurality of gaming interactions from a user during presentation of the programming content and the presenting of the device content; and
enabling a promotional opportunity based on the processing of at least some of the plurality of gaming instructions.

Abstract
Methods and system for encoded information processing are described. In one embodiment, an encoded pattern may be optically detected from source media. Gaming data and associated synchronization data may be decoded from the encoded pattern. The gaming data may be synchronized for use during gaming based on the synchronization data. Additional methods and systems are disclosed.
