Abstract
Embodiments of the invention may provide an approach for mapping an image to an object using a matrix code. An associated method generally may include decoding a matrix code on a surface of the object to determine a network location of the image; downloading the image from the network location; retrieving a plurality of coordinate sets referenced by the matrix code; mapping the image to at least one region of the object according to the plurality of coordinate sets; and displaying the object with the mapped image. In one embodiment, the step of mapping the image to at least one region of the object according to the plurality of coordinate sets includes mapping a plurality of portions of the image to respective regions of the object according to respective pluralities of coordinate sets.
