INTERACTING WITH VISUAL CODES WITHIN MESSAGING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240281121 titled 'INTERACTING WITH VISUAL CODES WITHIN MESSAGING SYSTEM
Simplified Explanation: The patent application involves a system and method for interacting with visual codes within a messaging system. This includes displaying captured image data with a visual code, receiving user input to select the visual code, displaying an updated custom graphic, providing an animation showing the graphic moving to an interface element with user-selectable icons, and updating the icons to include additional features.
- The program and method allow for displaying captured image data with visual codes.
- Users can select visual codes to access specific features of the messaging application.
- An animation shows the movement of the custom graphic to user-selectable icons.
- The icons represent different features of the messaging application.
- Additional icons are added to access more features.
Key Features and Innovation: - Interacting with visual codes in a messaging system - Displaying captured image data with visual codes - Selecting visual codes to access specific features - Animating the movement of custom graphics to interface elements - Updating icons to include additional features
Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in messaging applications, marketing campaigns, interactive advertisements, and user interface design.
Problems Solved: - Enhancing user interaction with visual codes - Providing a visually engaging way to access features - Improving the user experience in messaging applications
Benefits: - Increased user engagement - Enhanced visual appeal - Improved accessibility to features - Streamlined user interface design
Commercial Applications: Potential commercial applications include messaging app development, marketing strategies utilizing visual codes, interactive advertising campaigns, and user interface design services for digital platforms.
Prior Art: Prior art related to this technology may include research on visual code interactions in messaging systems, user interface design innovations, and advancements in interactive advertising techniques.
Frequently Updated Research: Researchers may be exploring new ways to enhance user interaction with visual codes, improve the efficiency of accessing features in messaging applications, and optimize the design of user interfaces for better user experience.
Questions about Visual Code Interaction: 1. How does this technology improve user engagement with messaging applications? 2. What are the potential implications of using visual codes in marketing campaigns?
Original Abstract Submitted
aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for interacting with visual codes within a messaging system. the program and method provide for displaying, by a messaging application, captured image data comprising a visual code, the visual code including a custom graphic and being decodable to access a first feature of the messaging application; receiving user input selecting the visual code; displaying an updated version of the custom graphic; providing an animation which depicts the updated version of the custom graphic as moving from the visual code to an interface element comprising a group of icons, each icon within the group of icons being user-selectable to access a respective second feature of the messaging application; and updating the group of icons to include an additional icon which is user-selectable to access the first feature of the messaging application.
