WHAT are QR
(Quick Response) codes?
•

A QR code is a matrix barcode readable by smartphones, mobile devices
with cameras and more

•

Typically seen as white squares with black geometric shapes (also multicolor codes and logos)

•

Information such as text, a URL or other data can be easily encoded using a
QR Code generator

•

Users point their device, scan, and are quickly taken to the encoded data



QR code was originally invented in 1994 by Denso Wave, a
Toyota subsidiary, as a way to track vehicles as they were
assembled, and to scan components at high speeds. While
Denso Wave does hold the patent on the technology, it has
granted free license on it, going so far as to publish the spec
online, and allowing anyone to use it.



Can not only hold 100 times more data than 1D barcodes and
they can also be digitally scanned by anyone with a phone.
