What are QR codes?

A QR (Quick Response) code is a way to safely and securely store data that you want to access instantly. QR codes were created in the Japanese motor industry to track car parts and components in the production cycle, but their efficiency in the storing and accessing of data are such that the advertising industry soon made use of them to send customers to websites without having to type in their website URL.
