This Recommendation specifies the service description and the requirements for multimedia
information access triggered by tag-based identification. This service enables users to access
multimedia information through users’ electronic devices equipped with ID tag readers and
communication functions.
The multimedia information is comprised of voice, sound, text, graphic, video and other media
which have various applications such as digital maps for way-finding and interactive 3D panorama
pictures. Users will receive its delivery via communication networks like fixed networks and mobile
networks according to their network access capabilities.
These applications and services are characterized by the use of the following:
1. Identifier: an identifier is assigned to each real-world entity such as a physical/logical object, a
place, and a person;
2. ID tag: an ID tag is tag, such as a barcode, a passive/active RFID, a smartcard, or an infrared
tag, used to store the identifier; and
3. ID terminal: an ID terminal is device equipped with an ID tag reader/writer used to capture the
identifier. Capturing the identifier triggers access to multimedia information via a network.
