Matrix barcode enhancement through capture and use of neighboring environment image

摘要

A method of enhancing a matrix barcode with environment image. The method comprises generating, by a server, an original matrix barcode based on source information, capturing, by a camera, an image of the original matrix barcode in a graphic environment comprising the matrix barcode and at least part of the graphic environment information, and parsing the image to obtain the source information and the at least part of the graphic environment information. The method further comprises generating a key based on the at least part of the graphic environment information, encrypting the source information with the key to obtain encrypted source information, encoding the encrypted source information into a first matrix barcode, and encoding the key into a key matrix barcode.

1. A method of enhancing a matrix barcode with environment image, comprising:
generating, by a server, an original matrix barcode based on source information; capturing, by a camera, an image of the original matrix barcode in a graphic environment comprising the matrix barcode and at least part of graphic environment information; parsing the image to obtain the source information and the at least part of the graphic environment information; generating a key based on the at least part of the graphic environment information; encrypting the source information with the key to obtain encrypted source information; encoding the encrypted source information into a first matrix barcode; encoding the key into a key matrix barcode; transmitting, by a data store, to a user equipment the first matrix barcode and the key matrix barcode; scanning and decoding, by a second matrix barcode reader, the key matrix barcode being displayed on a display of the user equipment to recover the key; scanning and decoding the first matrix barcode to obtain the encrypted source information; and decrypting the encrypted source information based on the key to recover the source information of the first matrix barcode.
