This is an extension of QR or Data matrix, to also include
human editable boxes.
Next to the barcode is extra marks for "Optical mark
recognition(OMR)" or "Optical Character Recognition
(OCR)".
----
So if you have a url like "http://example.com", you can
print out standardized stickers
with extra OMR or OCR
markings.
To program the sticker, you just fill in the markings.
E.g. next to the search box, you write "The Man"
"http://example.com?s=The+Man"
So what's the purpose of this? Good point...
----
For simple "psudo OCR", perhaps OMR arranged as 7
segment ( Or 16 segments for alpha numeric marking).

Perhaps for easier reading of human readable characters, have OCR marking for alpanumeric markings [mofosyne, Apr 17 2015]
16 segmented character recognition for URLs

Visual Recognition of Sketched Symbols (Tom Y. Ouyang) (Randall Davis) (2009)
http://rationale.cs...uyang2009Symbol.pdf
This paper presents a new approach to sketched symbol recognition that preserves as much of the visual nature of the symbol as possible. Our method is robust to differences in drawing style, computationally efficient, and achieves excellent performance for several different domains. [mofosyne, Jul 17 2016]

QR codes have error checking, but I suppose it may just be possible to arrange it so that changing a single boxes colour would tip the url from one url under your control to another. Then you could put a note next to it on a leaflet saying which one to fill in to get to the new place. Easiest if the target (light) box was surrounded by dark ones.
Or you could not say which box, and have a QR treasure-hunt. |
