We “deployed” QR Code Reader functionality here on an iPad by downloading and installing a mobile app. So far not too hard. But let me take you to “why now?”. Well, it was a “where” of life scenario, the sucker punch for me … a map with QR Codes next to places on the map whereby that QR Code read by a QR Code Reader app, effectively photographing it, leads you to “further reading” webpages.<\/p>\n

So, yes, QR Code usage is asking, in all practicalities of usage, for hard copy input, or another computer device screen with a QR Code showing, separate to the device you are using with the QR Code Reader app, that you photograph, to make all this functionality “shine” … but shine it did, in a “woh” moment, at least for us, and maybe for you?!<\/p>\n
