Welcome to the first lesson in the QR Codes For Business Crash
Course. Over the next few days you will receive several lessons that will
help you learn the ins and outs of effectively using QR Codes for your
business.
In this first lesson let's talk a little about what QR codes are and what
they can do for your business.
First a little bit of history!
Well, in plain truth, the QR codes are nothing more than fancy version
of
the bar code. The only difference between the two is that a QR code
carries a lot more data than a traditional bar code.

The QR code was in fact developed by none other than Denso Wave, a
subsidiary of Nippondenso, that is in turn owned by Toyota. The QR
code was invented in order to improve the speed by which they
assemble the cars in the factory according to the specific
orders of each and every customer.
When you look closely, you will see that the average QR has multitudes
of black dots inside a square. Just like how a barcode is computed,
these dots represent either a 1 or a 0 (zero) in binary code and when
combined in a series the dots and spaces make up what the QR code
is saying.
Normally, the QR code is read starting from the bottom right corner
going up to read the first line, then it shifts one row to the left and starts
down again. This up and down reading method allows the data that is
written inside the QR code to be electronically available by using a high
definition camera and interpreted electronically.
The data that is derived from this code will then determine what kind of
vehicle the assembly line is making now. When it was designed and
perfected, the QR code was used to differentiate the different kinds of
vehicles that were assembled in the different assembly lines of
Toyota’s factories.
This kind of assembly system necessitated a different kind of
identification that is to be used. Remember that during this time, Toyota
was one of a very few car manufacturer’s that was assembling vehicles
using the same systems or within a single factory. Normally, you
needed a different set of robots, welders, computers and programs to
assembly on that line of cars.
Since Toyota was using one factory to assembly different vehicles, they
needed an effective way to identify which car needed what parts,

painted in what color and received what tires. The QR code gave them
the edge they needed to be able to integrate a whole lot of systems in
order to assemble cars, vans, pickups, suv’s, within the same factory
using the different parts of these vehicles.
The QR code is very handy when it comes to having to put a lot of the
things you want to say in a very small package. Since then, the QR
code and its successors have been showing up more and more in
all types of businesses. But unlike barcodes the QR code is mostly
used in systems that need a lot of data in a limited printable area that
you cannot do on a barcode.
There is also one other use of QR Codes in business, and that is
embedded messages. The QR code is very handy to tell a message
that can only be decoded by a mobile phone that has the necessary
program to decode it, which is what makes them such a handy
promotional tool...
