SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR USE OF VOICE MAIL AND EMAIL IN A MIXED MEDIA ENVIRONMENT
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for updating hotspot information, the method comprising:
- receiving an image of at least a portion of a document;
transmitting for display on a capture device at least one hotspot received as a result of a match between the received image and a stored document data structure, the document data structure comprising;
a representation of the document,at least one media andthe at least one hotspot associated with the at least one media or at least one action;
receiving via the capture device a user selection of the at least one hotspot;
retrieving, with the processor, the at least one media or the at least one action associated with the at least one hotspot; and
performing the at least one action associated with a service provider.

Abstract
A mixed media reality (MMR) system includes an MMR user, a MMR computer, a user printer that produces a printed document, a networked media server, an office portal, a service provider server, an electronic display that is electrically connected to a set-top box, a document scanner, a network, a capture device, a cellular infrastructure, wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) technology, Bluetooth® technology, infrared (IR) technology, wired technology, and a geo location mechanism. The MMR system provides mechanisms for forming a mixed media document that includes media of at least two types, such as printed paper as a first medium and a digital photograph, digital movie, digital audio file, or web link as a second medium. Furthermore, the MMR system facilitates business methods that take advantage of the combination of a portable electronic device, voice mail or email, and a paper document.

17. A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer useable medium having a computer readable program for providing hotspot information, wherein the computer readable program when executed on a computer causes the computer to:
-
receive an image of at least a portion of a document; transmit for display on a capture device at least one hotspot received as a result of a match between the received image and a stored document data structure, the document data structure comprising; a representation of the document, at least one media and the at least one hotspot associated with the at least one media or at least one action; receive via the capture device a user selection of the at least one hotspot; retrieve the at least one media or the at least one action associated with the at least one hotspot; and perform the at least one action associated with a service provider. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
