A QR code is a piece of information from certain medias that look like a small box with no border and has tiny black squares inside it. These tiny black squares have information on each of them that can be scanned with a smart cell phone that takes you to the certain internet site that is imprinted on this square or it will tell you information about certain jobs as well or details about a specific product you are interested in buying.
You can generate smart codes by using the Open Source code that is usually an app on smart phones that allows you to take a picture of the QR code and it will give you information about what you took a picture of. The smart phone that is needed to allow you to scan the QR codes is either the Iphone or the Android phones. The QR codes are also used for a marketing technique as well. It is said that also Google as a tool that allows people to scan QR codes too. QR codes can be found in many places now, such as restaurants like Chili's or Applebee's. I know even Walmart has certain products, both food and non food items that has a QR code on it now. You would want to use a QR code on a printed product because it would allow your customers to retrieve more information about that product and will convince them to possibly buy the product if it interests them.
The reason why I would want to use a QR code on my printed project because then people would know more information about my project and about me, who made the printed project. I know people always want to know more information about who makes which project. There could be more than one of the same project. It's mostly unlikely , but if it ever happened and someone scanned the QR code then that individual would know who created the printed project and know more information about that person. I got all my information from the website, "What is a QR Code and Why Do You Need One?" It helped me so much when answering these questions for this class. Below is an example of a QR code that was off the site that gave me information over what QR codes actually were.
