QR scanners, smart mobile phones with a camera. QR codes can be used
to link to any URL. They can also be used to automatically add

Code creation software and a special printer. A QR Code is a matrix
code (or two-dimensional bar code) created by Japanese corporation
Denso-Wave in 1994. The "QR" is derived from "Quick Response", as

speed.
