Abstract

A hybrid tag interface system and an interfacing method therefor are provided. First codes for an object from a wireless recognition tag containing the first codes are received through wireless communication, a second code for the object from an image tag expressing the second code by using a 1- or 2-dimensional image is read through optical contact, and then information on the object is calculated from the first codes and the second code based on their correlation. By doing so, automatic recognition and visibility can be maximized using the hybrid tag combining a wireless recognition tag and an image tag.
