Abstract
Systems and techniques include using a sensor of a computing device to detect the presence of a first portion of a code, the code including at least the first portion and a second portion, where the first portion of the code is decodable and includes an identifier and the second portion of the code is non-decodable. The computing device recognizes the identifier in the first portion of the code and obtains instructions for decoding the second portion of the code using the identifier and/or data associated with the identifier. The instructions to decode the second portion of the code are processed to generate a decoded second portion of the code. The computing device performs an action defined in the decoded second portion of the code.
