Abstract
A system and method for interactive printed media are disclosed in which a mobile or wearable computing device has an application that captures an image of a piece of printed media and associates a link to the piece of printed media using a backend component to make the piece of printed media interactive. The system and method may be used to generate a piece of printed media that is interactive that may be sent to third parties or to make an existing piece of printed media interactive.
Claims14
A system for generating interactive media, comprising:
- a computing device having a processor, memory, an imaging device and a display, the computing device being one of a mobile computing and a wearable computing device;
- a backend component that can be coupled to the computing device;
- the computing device being configured to select a piece of media and record a piece of interactive content using the imaging device for each of a plurality of recipients, each piece of interactive content having a unique identifier for one of the recipients and the piece of media having a code;
- and
- the backend component being configured to associate a link between the piece of media code and the unique identifier of the piece of interactive content for each recipient to generate an interactive piece of media for each recipient, wherein the piece of media is the same for each recipient and the interactive piece of media is unique for each recipient.
A method for generating interactive media, comprising:
- selecting, by a computing device having a processor, memory, an imaging device and a display, the computing device being one of a mobile computing and a wearable computing device, a piece of media;
- recording, by the imaging device of the computing device, a piece of interactive content for each of a plurality of recipients, each piece of interactive content having a unique identifier for one of the recipients and the piece of media having a code;
- and
- associating a link, at the backend component, between the piece of media code and the unique identifier of the piece of interactive content for each recipient to generate an interactive for each recipient, wherein the piece of media is the same for each recipient and the interactive piece of media is unique for each recipient.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a computer system having a processor, memory and a plurality of lines of code configured to:
- receive a piece of media from a computing device, the piece of media having a code;
- receive a user generated piece of interactive content generated by an imaging device of the computing device for each of a plurality of recipients, each piece of user generated interactive content having a unique identifier for one of the recipients;
- and
- associate a link between the piece of media code and the unique identifier of the piece of interactive content for each recipient to generate an interactive piece of media for each recipient, wherein the piece of media is the same for each recipient and the interactive piece of media is unique for each recipient.
