World’s First Intelligent Stamp by the UK Royal Mail

UK Royal Mail has launched the world’s first Intelligent Stamp through its latest Great British Railways Special Stamps edition.

The Intelligent Stamp is the first to work with image recognition technology and can be accessed on an iPhone or Android Smartphone via the Junaio application.

The application is available from iTunes and Android Market free of charge, and the stamps themselves are available from www.royalmail.com/stamps.

The Junaio app contains a Royal Mail channel which activates the phone‘s camera and launches the exclusive online content featuring Bernard Cribbins reading W H Auden’s poem, Night Mail.

Philip Parker, Head of Stamp Strategy, Royal Mail, says:

This is the first time a national postal service has used this kind of technology on their stamps and we`re very excited to be bringing intelligent stamps to the nation`s post.
