Although an EPC Station makes it’s service appear
simple to the public and autonomous in its operation, there
is a high degree of integrated and coordinated technology
taking place ‘behind the scenes’.
The following is a schematic of the overall functioning
of the ‘system’:

These of course, are the postcards that were chosen to
be sent electronically via e-mail, however what happens
to those that were chosen to be hard-copied and mailed?
The technology doesn’t quite end there though, as
the recipient and the user (when he/ she returns home) may
choose additional services from the EPC web-site ‘store’
called, ‘The Hard-Copy Café’ This on-line
store allows individuals to order additional hard-copies
of their postcards, as well as personalized items such as
mugs, t-shirts and other gifts from a specific location
visited.
