![What are QR Codes?
According to Wikipedia: QR Code (abbreviated
from Quick Response Code) is the trademark for
a type of matrix barcode (or two-dimensional
code) first designed for the automotive industry.
More recently, the system has become popular
outside the industry due to its fast readability and
large storage capacity compared to standard UPC
barcodes. The code consists of black modules
(square dots) arranged in a square pattern on a
white background. The information encoded can
be made up of four standardized kinds ("modes")
of data (numeric, alphanumeric, byte/binary,
Kanji), or through supported extensions, virtually
any kind of data.[1]](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/qriousaboutqrcodes-120818202505-phpapp02/85/Q-rious-about-qr-codes-2-320.jpg)
