Disclosed is an object identification code attachable to a physical object as well as a corresponding method for identifying a physical object using the object identification code. The object identification code may comprise a plurality of machine-readable optical codes, wherein each of the plurality of optical codes may be configured to encode a unique identifier of the physical object, to be independently scannable by a camera of an electronic device, to cause upon being scanned an object identification procedure to be performed by an object identification application of the electronic device and to be dynamically linkable to each other to form a predetermined scan pattern for at least one of verifying authenticity of the physical object and/or reaching a target address associated with the physical object.

Method for identifying a physical object using an object identification code

The invention relates to a method for providing object-related communication that takes place based on a physical object (), including the steps: creating a digital representation () of a physical object (), preferably on an IoT platform (), the physical object () including at least one information carrier (I), the information carrier (I) including at least one identifier (UID), the physical object () being unequivocally assignable to its digital representation (), based on the identifier (UID), and the information carrier (I) being readable by means of communication devices () in order to at least partially access the particular digital representation (), providing a configurable information container () for the digital representation ('), it being possible for the information container () to include at least one static information packet and/or at least one dynamic information packet and/or at least one access-sensitive information packet and/or a gateway information packet, each static information packet being processable solely by communication devices () of information issuers (), each dynamic information packet being processable by communication devices () that are not solely information issuers (), each access-sensitive information packet being automatically supplemented based on an access by a communication device (), and the gateway information packet allowing communication between communication devices ().

Method for providing object-linked communication in relation to physical objects

According to the invention there is provided a method of connecting a crockery item to a contactless readable electronic information carrier comprising the steps: providing the crockery item, the crockery item comprising a material selected from a group consisting of glass, ceramic and plastic or a combination thereof, applying a carrier layer to a surface of the crockery item, applying the information carrier to a surface of the carrier layer, that is remote from the surface of the crockery item, wherein a base surface of the information carrier is smaller than a surface of the carrier layer, and applying a cover layer of printing ink in such a way that the cover layer at least portion-wise covers a surface of the information carrier, that is remote from the carrier layer, and the surface of the carrier layer, wherein the carrier layer includes a plastically deformable material, wherein application of the information carrier to the carrier layer includes impressing the information carrier into the carrier layer.

Method for connecting an item of dishware to an information carrier and apparatus comprising an item of dishware and an information carrier

The present invention concerns a method of connecting an item of dishware () to a contactlessly readable electronic information carrier () comprising the steps: providing the item of dishware (), wherein the item of dishware () comprises a material selected from a group consisting of glass, ceramic and plastic or a combination thereof, and attaching the information carrier to the item of dishware. Contactlessly readable electronic information carriers applied to a self-adhesive carrier film are known. They can also be adhesively bonded to an item of dishware for identification thereof. In comparison according to the invention the above-mentioned method is further developed in that it further includes the steps: applying a cover layer of printing ink in such a way that the cover layer at least portion-wise covers a surface of the information carrier and the cover layer extends over a portion, which is not covered by the information carrier, on the surface of the item of dishware.
