METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR INTERACTIVE COMMUNICATIONS

摘要

A method for interaction among individuals using mobile communication devices equipped with lasers and optical receivers without requiring use of mobile numbers. An initial message is either communicated in full directly from sending to receiving device or alternatively message contents are first uploaded to a common application server and a unique identification code is transmitted to the receiving device and used to retrieve the full message from the server. The method of transmission by sender device to be optical or infrared laser and received by devices equipped with an optical or infrared receivers. Interactions subsequent to the initial message may not require use of a laser and can be facilitated via the common application servers without any requirement for parties to divulge personal identifying information. Such initial interaction by method thus described may require permission from, or be limited by, venue operators or jurisdictional governance.
