Abstract
The present disclosure details apparatuses, methods, and systems for a Graphical Code-Serving Interface and Code Triggered Information Server (“GCSI/CTIS”). The GCSI/CTIS connects information encoding symbologies to graphical interface elements, thus expanding the useful information content and interactivity of graphical displays, advertisements, publications, broadcasts, and/or the like. In one embodiment, a method is disclosed for displaying information in an electronic system having a graphical interface that comprises displaying a first visual token and animating the first visual token to reveal a second visual token comprising a coded symbol.
Claims48
In an electronic system having a graphical interface, a method of displaying information comprising:
- displaying a first visual token;
- and
- animating the first visual token to reveal a second visual token comprising a coding symbol.
In an electronic system having a graphical interface, a method of displaying information comprising:
- displaying a first visual token;
- receiving a selection of the first visual token by a pointer interface element;
- and
- rotating the first visual token in response to the selection by a pointer interface element to reveal a matrix code on a proximate side of the first visual token.
An electronic system to display information, having a graphical interface and further comprising:
- means to display a first visual token;
- and
- means to animate the first visual token to reveal a second visual token comprising a coding symbol.
An electronic system to display information, having a graphical interface and further comprising:
- means to display a first visual token;
- means to receive a selection of the first visual token by a pointer interface element;
- and
- means to rotate the first visual token in response to the selection by a pointer interface element to reveal a matrix code on a proximate side of the first visual token.
An apparatus to display information, comprising:
- a processor;
- a memory in communication with the processor and containing program instructions;
- an input and output in communication with the processor and memory comprising a graphical interface;
- wherein the processor executes program instructions contained in the memory and the program instructions comprise:
- display in the graphical interface a first visual token stored in the memory;
- and
- animate the first visual token to reveal a second visual token stored in the memory, the second visual token comprising a coding symbol.
An apparatus to display information, comprising:
- a processor;
- a memory in communication with the processor and containing program instructions;
- an input and output in communication with the processor and memory comprising a graphical interface;
- wherein the processor executes program instructions contained in the memory and the program instructions comprise:
- display in the graphical interface a first visual token stored in the memory;
- receive a selection of the first visual token by a pointer interface element;
- and
- rotate the first visual token in response to the selection by a pointer interface element to reveal a matrix code stored in the memory on a proximate side of the first visual token.
A processor-accessible medium for displaying information, comprising:
- processor readable instructions stored in the processor-accessible medium, wherein the processor readable instructions are issuable by a processor to:
- display in a graphical interface a first visual token stored in a memory;
- and
- animate the first visual token to reveal a second visual token stored in the memory, the second visual token comprising a coding symbol.
A processor-accessible medium for displaying information, comprising:
- processor readable instructions stored in the processor-accessible medium, wherein the processor readable instructions are issuable by a processor to:
- display in a graphical interface a first visual token stored in a memory;
- receive a selection of the first visual token by a pointer interface element;
- and
- rotate the first visual token in response to the selection by a pointer interface element to reveal a matrix code stored in the memory on a proximate side of the first visual token.
