QR (Quick Response) Code is a Two-Dimensional barcode that is readable by Smartphones and QR Code Reader. It allows users to encode over 4000 characters in a two-dimensional barcode. The QR code consist of pixels also called modules instead of bars. QR code was invented by the automotive industry to identify components. Mostly this was originally used in industrial applications. And it is very easily printable in form and size as well as staying legible when partially destroyed or dirty.
