QR Codes

​

A QR code (quick response code) is a type of bar code that is used to provide easy access to information through a mobile device such as a smartphone or a tablet. 

​

Through the use of the mobile device's camera, the QR code can be read using an app specifically designed for that purpose.  By scanning the QR code with such an app, the user can open the links that are embedded inside of it and interact with it.  Links typically open articles, emails, art, websites, phone numbers, videos, social media pages and much, much more. All you need is a camera lens on your device and a QR code app which can be downloaded online for free.
