It will be appreciated that a portion of the ware may be implemented on the user device so as to interface with the processor and may be activated on the user device 16 when desired by a user or may be adapted to scan or run automatically. The user device 16 then receives an inputted code into the user device 16 at step 44 and as illustrated in Figure 5. Optionally, if no code is entered, the processor 14 may select a default media file to present to the user. In particular, the user device 16 may prompt the user for their user code with a pop-up window 30 or the like. Optionally, the code may be stored in the user device and either automatically entered each time a user scans an image or presented in a popup window as is commonly known. After the image and the user code have been received, this information is transmitted to the processor which looks up the appropriate media in step 46. As set out above, each image that is included in the database may have several media files associated with it such that the specific inputted code is used to differentiate and personalize the media provided to that user. In step 48 this personalized media file is transmitted back to the user device in step 48 and displayed on the user device in step 50. In this way, each user may receive a personalized media file.

As illustrated in Figure 6, the media file 60, which may comprise a video is superimposed over the image of the object 8 as viewed through the camera of the user device. In particular, the media file 60 is superimposed over the image 6 which was utilized to select the media file previously so as to replace this image 6 when viewed through the screen of the user device 16 utilizing known techniques. In particular, the media file 60 may be indexed to the object 8 such that movement 100 of the object in a direction generally indicated at 100 results in movement of the media file 60 on the object 8 as viewed through the screen in a corresponding 102 so as to keep the media file 60 at the same relative position on the object as viewed through the screen.
The present system and method permits a unique or individualized media to be presented to a user based on their inputted code. This system may permit each user to receive a unique or personalized advertisement. In particular, advertisers may provide a code to each user which groups them according to their interests or language preferences. Each user group may then receive that advertisement which is deemed to me most appropriate for them. Additionally, gifting users may purchase or select an object, such as a gift card which has an image thereon included in the database. The gifting user may then record their own personalized message and associate it with a code. They may then give the article and the code to a receiving user who may then receive the customized message when they input the provided code. It will be appreciated that any object may be utilized for such purposes including gift cards, business cards, gift items such as stuffed animals or the like. Although the present system and method are described herein as providing custom content to a user, it may also be utilized to provide access to or unlock premium or additional content wherein only persons having the correct code and access to the correct scanned may be provided to the additional content.
