Retrieving contact details using a printed medium
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of retrieving contact details using a print medium, the method comprising the steps of:
- sensing data encoded on a surface of the print medium using a sensor module, the sensed data encoding at least;
a print media identifier which uniquely identifies the print medium; and
a two-dimensional position with respect to the surface of the print medium;
determining the print media identifier from said sensed data;
determining the two-dimensional position of the sensor module relative to the surface of the print medium from the sensed data;
retrieving contact details referenced by the print media identifier and the two-dimensional position of the sensor module from a database.

Abstract
A method of retrieving contact details using a print medium is disclosed. Data encoded on a surface of the print medium is sensed using a sensor module. The sensed data encodes a print media identifier which uniquely identifies the print medium, and a two-dimensional position with respect to the surface of the print medium. The print media identifier and the position of the sensor module relative to the surface of the print medium are determined from the sensed data. Contact details referenced by the print media identifier and the position of the sensor module are then retrieved from a database.
