Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided are a method of recognizing a quick response (QR) code in image data, and an apparatus and method for converting a QR code in content data into a touchable object. The method of converting a QR code in content data into a touchable object includes a step in which a computer device receives content data including a QR code, a step in which the computer device recognizes the QR code in the content data, and a step in which the computer device converts an image in which the QR code is shown into a touchable object for executing a command included in the QR code. The converting step includes interpreting, at the computer device, the command included in the recognized QR code, and modifying, at the computer device, a code of the content data to convert the image into the touchable object for executing the command.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of recognizing a quick response (QR) code in a content data, comprising: displaying, using a computer device, a visual content of a content data on a display device; receiving, using the computer device, a signal for selecting a region in which the QR code is shown; and recognizing, using the computer device, the QR code based on an image data of a QR code in the content data, wherein the image data is identified by analyzing a computer code of…
