Ubiquitous Wikipedia

Semapedia combines the physical annotation technology of Semacode with the availability of high quality information using Wikipedia. Semapedia aims to provide free relevant ad-hoc high quality information to mobile users in the real world.

Using Semacode Nodes, real-world objects such as a museum, a statue or anything that exists in the real-world and which happens to have a Wikipedia.org article will be tagged with the relevant Wikipedia article URL. A passer-by can use their Smartphone and 'click' (take a picture and decode the URL) on the Semacode Node in order to obtain the relevant Wikipedia article on the subject that they are standing in front of. The Semacode Node is created and attached by either the owner of the subject or someone else who thinks passers-by should be able to learn more on the subject using this technology.
