Abstract

Systems and methods for generating, reading and transferring identifiers are disclosed. In one embodiment, a handheld system for associating a selected audio content with an object includes an identifier applied to a surface of the object and having a predetermined graphical format that is configured to encode the selected audio content, and a handheld device operable to encode the identifier and further operable to detect an audio content associated with the identifier.

1. A method to record a document transaction comprising:

producing a first identifier that encodes a first audio content spoken from a first person including at least one selected from the group consisting of the visually impaired and the mentally challenged;

comparing the first time spoken message from the identifier with the second time point spoken message to verify the identity of the individual.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein producing the identifier further comprises providing the first time point spoken message to a handheld device operable to encode the identifier.

5. The method of claim 3 , wherein applying the identifier further comprises reading the identifier with a handheld device.

6. The method of claim 3 , wherein acquiring the second time point spoken message includes delivering same to a handheld device operable to encode the second time point spoken message.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the transferring the first and second time point messages to a voice recognition device further comprises communicating the first and second time point messages to a computer having voice recognition software.
