Barcode technology is taking a revolutionary leap forward. New codes can be read by cell phones and deliver audio, video and text information to the cell phone through a connection to a proprietary media jukebox. The codes can be used in print, on TV, Web sites, in exhibitions and for industrial uses.

With the Mobi Barcode Reader, Mobile Assets has perfected the technology, has developed numerous potential revenue streams for the product and is preparing to take it to market. This technology gives the mobile individual access to enormous amounts of instant information. The application for this is global.


PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Mobi Barcode Reader is based on 2-D (two-dimensional) symbology originally developed by Denso Wave of the Netherlands and distributed in open source code. The technology uses codes which contain information in both vertical and horizontal directions. These codes can be read by most camera-equipped mobile phones or web cams.

Mobile Assets version of the original open source code has improved efficiencies and now provides the best use of the international language developed by Denso Wave.

To interpret the barcode, the cell phone or computer runs a small piece of software which can be quickly downloaded at no cost. Sponsors can easily create bar codes by accessing a password-protected Web site.


When the camera reads the Mobi barcode, it accesses our proprietary media jukebox which delivers the additional information that relates to the bar code. That information can be video, music or text.

Furthermore, the jukebox includes capabilities for profile management, suggestive selling, full e-commerce and numerous “smart” features that allow the user to manage and manipulate their information.

Depending on the usage, the sponsor of the information may choose to charge for access or carry the cost as a marketing and advertising expense.

We provide the sponsor access to the jukebox for multimedia content which they create. We charge for storage, updates, delivery, size of file, personal profile management, customer management, transactional front and back end with full accounting and device display and network independence.
