Almost all of us are very well familiar with barcode that is used normally on products and contains the information of the product. Barcode is the arrangement of vertical lines and it has particular meanings. Barcode has many limitations and to remove these limitations another improved code has been introduced. This new code is the quick response code and it contrast to barcode it is normally in the shape of a square. Quick response code also contains information just like the barcodes. But barcode has a limitation that only a small amount of data can be stored in them. On the other hand QR code provides more data storage that means you can transmit more information. Quick response code was in use for many years in Japan where Toyota used it for the identification of the cars in the factory. It was introduced by Toyota but later because of its improved capability it because popular in other cities of japan and now it is a popular code all over the world. One major reason behind the popularity of these codes is their scanning. These codes can easily be scanned with any smartphone. All you have to do is to install the quick response code reader in your phone. Because of the popularity of the code this application is available free of cost and can easily be downloaded over the internet. Another reason behind the success of the QR codes is their use. These codes can be used anywhere and then users can scan it easily with the help of their phone. So this is a really good source of transmitting any type of information like information about a product or company or any other information. Because of the popularity of these codes government has implemented no restriction on their use and truly speaking anyone can use them without having any license and information. Because of their free use they are becoming popular day by day and their use is increasing. Normally they are used on products where they contain the information about the product like its manufacturing date, expiry date and information about the company. Because of their free use QR code generator is easily available on the internet. This generator is free of cost and any one can generate his personal code that can contain any information. Now you can place this code anywhere you want and viewers will be able to get the coded information by just reading the code with their phone. If you are aware of the quick response codes then you can ask that what the uses of these codes are. Here I will tell you about some of the basic uses of the QR code. This code basically contains information so it can be used anywhere when you want to transmit information. These codes can be used for personal purposes. For example you can convert your cell phone number in the code and then by scanning this code anyone can get this contact number. If you are a business man then these codes are very useful for you. You can use them for the publicity of your product or your company. With their use you will be able to see that you have attracted more customers. To do this you must create QR codes that contain the information of your product and your company. You can also include the price of the products and can also tell people about the discounts on the products. Just put this information in the code and then place it anywhere you want. People will scan this code and they will come to know about your business and products. If they liked the information they will visit you very soon and will become your customer.
