QR Code Stands for Quick Response Code, is a type of 2D BarCode which was First used in designing automotive Industry. It is Presently Very Popular as it is very Fast Readable and has large storage Capacity as compared to the Barcode The Code Consists of Black modules arranged in a Square pattern on a White Board. Invented by the Toyota subsidiary Denso Wave in 1994 to track vehicles during the manufacturing process. It was designed to allow its contents to be decoded at high speed. In recent years consumers have grown used to seeing them in consumer advertising and packaging, because the dissemination of smartphones "has put a barcode reader in everyone's pocket" for the first time. For Commercial, hardware scanners available in several technologies; no more expensive than other barcode scanners. For Causal use, software generators and readers are available for free in the Internet and many Apps for PC and Mobile (which have camera) .

QR Code has started in India since 2years. Indian Commercial Companies use QR code in their Advertisements to promote their Product

QR Code is Scanned through the Mobile and it is Decoded Online and Gives a fast response

QR Code is encoded in 4 Types1. Numeric - 3 characters are encoded to 10bit length. In theory, 7089 characters or less can be stored in a QRcode.

2. Alphanumeric - 2 characters are encoded to 11bit length. In theory, 4296 characters or less can be stored in a QRcode.

3. 8bit byte data- In from of 0 & 1 In theory, 2953 characters or less can be stored in a QRcode.

4. KANJI - A KANJI Character(this is multi byte character) is encoded to 13bit length. In theory, 1817 characters or less can be stored in a QRcode.

The Size of QR Code defined as version. Version is from 1 to 40. Version 1 is 21*21 matrix. And 4 modules increases whenever 1 version increases. So version 40 is 177*177 matrix.

QR- Code Scanner uses three Corners as Markers, regardless of Position Scanned

The QR Code can be of any Color Other than Black and of any Size With Various Patterns and Designs.

Very Fast Decoding - It takes a second or two to decode the Information from the encrypted in the QR Code. About 5-6KB of Information is transferred online to The server and it responds very faster as compared to The General Barcode.

High Density This QR Code can contain up to 1852 characters (a total of 1,264 characters of ordinary/ASCII text ).

ZXING is an open-source, multi-format 1D/2D barcode image processing library implemented in Java, with ports to other languages. However the project can be used to encode and decode barcodes.
