QR Codes

 

What is a QR Code and what do you do with it?  

QR, short for "quick response", is a matrix bar code in two dimensions which allows dedicated QR Code readers, such as a bar code reader or camera smart phones, to quickly decipher the code for instant information.  The QR Code is made up of black modules (or other colors) arranged in a square pattern on a white background.  The information gathered from the matrix bar code can be text, URL, or other data.

 

 

The QR Code was originally developed by Toyota subsidiary Denso Wave in order to have better control of automotive parts inventory.  It has since developed into a great form of advertising which allows anyone to instantly gain information about your company by taking them directly to your web page.

 

All you need to do to read the QR Code is download a reader application to your smart cell phone such as "ZXing" (most Android phones have an application already installed) or "QR Reader for iPhone" for the Apple iPhone. Just take a photo of the QR Code and your cell phone will immediately go to the company's web page.
