Abstract

See full text

A method of enabling a user to initiate an action via a printed substrate, said substrate comprising user information and coded data, said coded data being indicative of a region identity associated with the substrate and of a plurality of locations on the substrate, said method comprising the steps of: receiving, in a computer system and from a sensing device, mode data and interaction data, the sensing device being operable in a plurality of modes and the mode data being indicative of one of said modes, the interaction data being indicative of the region identity and at least one position of the sensing device relative to the substrate, the sensing device generating the interaction data, when operatively positioned or moved relative to the substrate, by reading at least some of the coded data; identifying and retrieving at least part of a page description corresponding to the printed substrate using the region identity; determining a mode of the sensing device using the mode data; identifying an action using said mode, said interaction data and said page description; and initiating said action.
