A Quick Response (QR) code is a two-dimensional code that is capable of 360-degree (omni-directional) high-speed reading and stores a larger amount of information per unit area. It has a pattern of black squares that are arranged on a square grid with a white background and imaging devices, such as smartphone cameras, that can be used to read these QR codes. While scanning a QR code, the horizontal and vertical patterns of the matrix are decoded by the software on smartphone and are further converted into a string of characters. Depending on the command of those characters, the smartphone opens a browser link, confirms payment information, and verifies geolocation.
