Create a mapping of permutations of subsets of playing cards to data. These are arrangements, unless we also take advantage of the additional flexibility that some cards (namely A 3 5 7 9 of spades, hearts, clubs, but not diamonds) are different when rotated 180 degrees.
Create an app with which one can take a picture of a set of playing cards and have it translated to a string of letters. (Also instructions for going the other way.) We might use a dense encoding of English.
At least 227 bits possible as an arrangement; don't know how to count the additional possibilities from card rotation.
If cards have backs which are not 180-degree rotation symmetric, then even more data can be encoded, though not decodable just from the faces.
