Retrieving a document via a coded surface
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of retrieving a document using a print medium, the method comprising the steps of:
- printing information representative of the document on the print medium using a printer module of a mobile telecommunications device;
sensing by a sensor in a media feed path of the printer module first coded data in a linear pattern while the print medium is being printed upon, the first coded pattern encoding a print media identifier which unique identifies the print medium;
associating the print media identifier and one or more positions on the print medium with the document;
sensing second coded data disposed at a position on the print medium using a sensor module of the mobile telecommunications device, the second coded data being in a two-dimensional pattern and encoding the print media identifier and the position of the second coded data sensed by the sensor module on the print medium;
determining by a processor of the mobile telecommunications device the print media identifier from the coded data sensed by the sensor module;
determining by the processor and from the second coded data the position of the second coded data sensed by the sensor module and the print medium identifier;
retrieving, using the mobile telecommunications device, the document associated with the print media identifier and the position; and
displaying the document on a display of the mobile telecommunications device.
