Recognizing and processing object and action tags from stickers

Abstract

Handling data for a photographic image, includes detecting a reference pattern in the data, detecting at least one sticker in the data, determining an action associated with the at least one sticker, and performing the action on the data. The reference pattern may be a uniform grid pattern of dots preprinted on paper. A paper type may be determined according to the reference image. Determining an action associated with the at least one sticker may depend, at least in part, on the paper type. Detecting a particular one of the stickers may cause data for the photographic image to be stored in a particular location. Detecting a particular one of the stickers may cause data for the photographic images to be assigned particular tags used for organizing and searching.
