For reference, it is used to indicate the kind of goods conforming to the World Product Code (UPC), or to manage sales information (POS) in supermarkets and the like. There are several methods of encoding such as World Product Code, CODABAR, MSI, Code 39, Korea Common Product Code (KAN), and Japan Common Product Code (JAN). When using such a barcode, numeric information can be stored in one direction. Since the one-dimensional information storage method, the amount of information stored is extremely limited, and the same information is uniformly distributed without distinguishing users without personalizing most of the information. Will be provided. In order to overcome the shortcomings of the information providing method using the bar code, a conventional information providing method using a QR code is proposed. In this case, the QR code is a matrix two-dimensional code representing information in a black and white plaid pattern. QR code is mainly used in Japan, and its name comes from DENSO WAVE's registered trademark Quick Response. In particular, the two-dimensional bar code that overcomes the limitations of the conventional bar code capacity and expands its format and contents can store data of characters in addition to numbers by having vertical and horizontal information. We read by digital camera and exclusive scanner and utilize.

In other words, a general barcode can store numeric information in one direction, whereas a QR code can have more information by having a two-dimensional form in the vertical and horizontal directions, and can store character data such as alphabets and Chinese characters in addition to numbers. If the color tone can be determined, the color may be included. The QR code can contain up to 1,891 Asian characters, including up to 7089 digits, up to 4296 characters (ASCII), up to 2953 bytes in binary 8 bits, and Chinese characters. In particular, the recognition rate is good and the processing speed is considerably fast.
