Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a computer-implemented method for detecting and generating a hash of content from a document, and sending it to another computer system to receive information corresponding to a related document.

  • The method involves detecting content from a physical document and generating a hash using that content.
  • The generated hash includes obfuscation content to protect the original content.
  • The first computer system sends the generated hash to a second computer system.
  • The second computer system responds to the hash with information corresponding to a related document associated with the original content.


Original Abstract Submitted

A computer-implemented method comprises: detecting, by a first computer system, first content of a tangible instance of a first document; generating, by the first computer system, a first hash using the first content, the first hash including first obfuscation content; sending, by the first computer system, the first hash for receipt by a second computer system; and receiving, by the first computer system, a response to the first hash generated by the second computer system, the response including information corresponding to a second document associated with the first content.
