Introduction

In this task we are going to design The Quick Response (QR) codes are ubiquitous in cities around the world today, scanned by users with smartphones for contact tracing purposes, or to access local information The trademark for a sort of matrix bar code first intended for the automotive industry is QR code (abbreviated from Quick Response Code). The QR code is now widely employed across many industries. In this work, we offer smartphone devices implementation that uses libraries and coupled algorithms to read any QR code quickly, accurately, and easily.

Methodology

In this ask we developed the QR decoding MATLAB script which reads the QR code and Extract the Useful information and displayed on the title of the image as output. The use of the QR is huge because of simple and easy to store the information, in recent years, QR codes have grown increasingly popular in consumer advertising. A smartphone is typically used as a QR code scanner, showing the code and translating it to a useful format, such as a standard URL for a website, eliminating the need for the user to type it into a web browser. Because it gives a faster way to access a brand's website than manually typing a URL, QR codes have become a focus of advertising strategy.BackgroundThe Japanese car company Denso Wave created the QR code (Quick Response code) in 1994 as a sort of matrix barcode (or two-dimensional barcode). A barcode is an optical label that provides information about the item to which it is attached and can be read by machines. In actuality, QR codes frequently include data for a locator, identifier, or tracker that directs users to a website or application. The black and white pieces on a Go board were the inspiration for the first design. Its goal was to track cars while they were being built, and it was built to facilitate high-speed component scanning. QR codes are being employed in a much larger context, including industrial tracking applications as well as smartphone convenience apps.When an open standard for payment information interchange, the Short Payment Descriptor, was established and supported by the Czech Banking Association as the official local solution for QR payments in November 2012, QR code payments were adopted on a greater scale in the Czech Republic. The European Payment Council issued standards for the EPC QR code in 2013, allowing SCT to start inside the Eurozone. QR codes began to be utilized as a "touchless" technique to display information, present menus, and give updated customer information once the COVID-19 epidemic spread, notably in the hotel industry. Restaurants substituted QR code decals on the table for paper or laminated plastic menus, which launched an online version of the menu. This eliminated the need to discard single-use paper menus or implement cleaning and sanitization processes for permanent menus after each usage.
