Abstract
A method of operating first and second electronic devices includes providing the first device with a display screen, and providing the second device with a camera. A tag is displayed on the screen. The tag is associated with information stored within the first device. An image of the tag is captured by use of the camera. The captured image is processed within the second device to thereby recognize the tag. In response to the recognition of the tag, the second device is used to initiate a transfer of the information to the second device.
