Abstract
Physical product samples provided with at least one physical product sample code. Physical product sample codes for the purpose of providing a physical product related information. Methods for compiling such a physical product sample code. Methods for providing a physical product sample with such a physical product sample code. Methods for acquiring physical product sample related information, wherein said physical product sample is provided with such a physical product sample code. Systems for compiling a physical product sample code using the method for compiling said sample code.
Claims27
A physical product sample, the physical product sample comprising:
- at least one unique physical product sample code, said physical product sample code comprising at least one sample code string of sample code segments, said sample code segments comprising at least a sample owner identifying code segment, and a sample identifying code segment,
- wherein:
- the sample owner identifying code segment specifies an Internet address of an owner of the physical sample;
- and
- said sample code string identifies both the physical product sample and a reference to a unique digital location via which information related to the physical product sample can be accessed.

14-15. (canceled)
A method for compiling a unique sample code for a physical sample, comprising:
- defining at least one sample code template comprising multiple sample code segments to be used for building a sample code for a physical sample, said sample code segments comprising:
- a sample owner identifying code segment;
- and
- a sample identifying code segment;
- specifying the content of the sample code segments to be used for building said sample code, wherein the sample owner identifying code segment specifies an Internet address, in particular an IP address and/or a domain name, of an owner of the physical sample;
- stringing the specified sample code segments to form the sample code;
- and
- defining a digital path to a digital location via which access can be gained to physical sample related information.

24-42. (canceled)
A system for compiling a unique sample code comprising:
- at least one sample code template generator for defining at least one sample code template comprising multiple sample code segments to be used for building a sample code for a physical sample, said sample code segments at least comprising a sample owner identifying code segment, and a sample identifying code segment;
- at least one sample code segment specification module connected to said template generator for specifying the content of the sample code segments defined by means of the code template generator, wherein the sample owner identifying code segment is specified by an Internet address, in particular an IP address and/or a domain name, of an owner of the physical sample;
- and
- at least one code generator connected to said template generator and said specification module for stringing the specified sample code segments to form the sample code.
