What is a QR code?
A QR code, short for "Quick Response", is a type of two-dimensional barcode that can store information in a way that is quick to read. It was created in Japan in 1994 by Denso Wave, a subsidiary of Toyota, to track vehicles during manufacturing. Since then it has found a wide range of applications in many fields.
QR codes are made up of small squares arranged in a black-and-white two-dimensional pattern. They can hold several kinds of data, such as text, URLs, contact details, links to websites or product information, among others. To read a QR code you use a mobile phone camera or a dedicated app. When it is scanned, the information embedded in the code is read and interpreted to take the user to the corresponding content or perform a specific action.
QR codes are widely used today for many purposes, such as marketing, digital tickets and passes, product tracking, links to additional information and payment methods, among many other applications across different industries.
