semacode

The semacode is a 2D code characterized by the fact that it contains fixed coding on two side lines, which is shown in black pixels. In addition to the data, the URL of the provider's website is also embedded in the semacode.

This allows cell phone readers to establish a direct connection to the corresponding website via the built-in web browser.

In practice, a cell phone user could photograph the semacode from an advertisement or billboard, scan it, read it, store the data in the address book, and connect to the provider's website via the Internet address (URL) and the built-in smartphone browser. These fast interactions offer significant advantages in marketing and tourism, in games, and in the presentation and ordering of goods and merchandise of all kinds.
