Claim 19:
20. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, storing program instructions executable via one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
detecting an attachment of a transparent surface to an electronic device, wherein detecting the attachment comprises detecting that the transparent surface is mounted to the electronic device;
based on detecting the attachment, obtaining image data from an image sensor of an electronic device, the image data corresponding to a transparent surface attached to the electronic device;
detecting a blink of a user of the electronic device;
obtaining one or more frames of data from the image sensor during the blink;
identifying a code in the image data based on detecting the code on the transparent surface in the one or more frames of data from the image sensor, wherein the code is detectable on the transparent surface by the image sensor without interfering with a function of the electronic device involving the transparent surface; and
providing content at the device based on the identified code, wherein the content is viewable through the transparent surface.
