Quick Response Code (QR Code)
In the realm of barcode technology, a QR code, or quick response code, stands out as a matrix barcode capable of storing machine-readable data. When scanned using a mobile phone or similar device, QR codes unveil information related to the item they are attached to. This information can range from trackers and locators to unique identifiers that lead to mobile applications or websites. QR codes employ standardized encoding methods like byte/binary, alphanumeric, numeric, and kanji to securely store the data.
