“A QR code (Quick Response code) is a form of 2D barcode designed to be quickly scanned by smartphones and QR scanners. It displays a pattern of black squares on a white surface, arranged in a precise grid. These codes can hold different types of information, including URLs, text, and various data, which can be instantly retrieved when scanned by a compatible device.”
