Sem@code - navigating the web with a camera
A few years ago we had a client whose idea was to connect printed ads to web URLs using a small scanner that a user could connect to their computers. Now every camera enabled cell phone has that ability.
Recently, an advanced computing device came into millions of hands: the camera phone. Camera phones have powerful processors, substantial memory, internet connections, and run standard Java-based applications. This combines into a new platform for connecting the real world, with the virtual world. Many innovations will result from this development: one of them is the semacode.
