What are the uses of QR Code?

QR Code is the abbreviation for “Quick Response Code”. It is a two-dimensional bar-code, capable to store and present much more data, containing virtually any type of information, including URL links, geo coordinates and text, which is the main reason behind its increasing popularity as compared to the standard barcode.
A key feature of QR Code is that it can be scanned by many modern cell phones easily, instead of requiring a chunky hand-held scanner. QR Code was initially designed for the automotive industry in Japan for high speed component scanning, but nowadays it is used in a much broader context, including both commercial tracking applications and convenience-oriented applications in a wide variety of ways.
There is really a huge scope for the use of QR Code, particularly in the advertisement and marketing of brands, products, services and anything else one can think of. QR Code can be used on shop displays, product packaging, advertisement boards, and also in emails and websites. QR Code can also be used in our daily life such as on fliers, name cards, and also as a payment system.  In this way it can contribute to make our routine activities convenient.
QR Code can be utilized at factories and in logistics operations for various business purposes. The efficiency and accuracy of the admission procedure can be improved by using QR Code for admission control at an event or seminar venue. QR Code can also be helpful in medical field. Mistakes in preparing a medicine can be prevented by matching data on a medicine preparation instruction with the medicine codes shown on actual medicines.

Since QR Codes are now used vastly in approximately every filed, in the near future they will become an indispensable tool in our lives.
