QR codes

A QR code is a two-dimensional code (2D code, matrix code), this means it contains data not only in one dimension (e.g. horizontally from left to right like the barcodes on the products in e.g. your grocery store) but also in a second dimension (vertical and horizontal). The acronym QR is short for "Quick Response".

QR codes are also often called 2D barcodes. However, this notation is not correct, because it means "a two-dimensional code consisting of bars" although a QR code consists of pixels (so-called "modules") instead of bars.
