Flashcode: 2D barcodes in France
The flashcode service has launched in France. Flashcode(s) are basically Datamatrix barcodes that allow a user ( from SFR, Orange or Bouygues telecom) to scan the flashcode and access content situated in the Gallery portal of the carriers.
AFMM group was created by the French operators. Exactly, Flashcode is a Datamatrix (standard code). However, Flashcode is an encrypted code (2344055).
ReplyDeleteOpen barcode (http://www.): direct resolution (not patented)
Encrypted barcode (2343444): indirect resolution (patented by Neomedia)
Only Mobiletag and Hotscan readers can read the Flashcodes.
Mobiletag has partnered with Bouygues Telecom and Orange France. It seems that Wister/Scanbuy (Hotscan) has partnered with SFR.
There is a dedicated Flashcode Reader application... the download link is pushed to your phone if you enter your phone number on the website.
