Any Place, Any Time, Any Size QR Codes

Need QR codes the size of skyscrapers or those that need an electron microscope to be readable, then vector QR Codes are what you need.

Why?

Vector QR Codes, also known as line drawing barcodes, remain perfectly clear at any size they are used. This in contrast to bitmap or pixel based QR codes that degrade proportionately to the size they are enlarged. So if you're in the printing industry or want your QR codes printed, these are the sort of QR codes you want to get.

Less is More

Small file size has great benefits if you need to make thousands at point A and get them to point B as soon as possible because B is waiting. A typical problem for dynamic data printing processes. This puppy is a native and compressed PDF QR Code generator, harbouring the best of breed on all aspects. It's small, yet can be created at any size without loss of fidelity. Print ready for any digital or conventional press.

Is this possible?

It's not only possible, it's reality, try it yourself!

Effective, efficient and compact vector QR Code technology.

Good looking QR codes have a scan rate at least 4 times higher than normal black and white QR codes. But that's not all, branding QR codes with your company color and logo promotes brand awareness and provides additional and easy exposure to the mobile market.

Ch'ing-Wa Sheng

He's the mastermind behind the shop. He wanted that everyone should be able to make unique customized QR codes in a fast and easy way. We gave him our QR code generator, pots of paint, a roller and some brushes and asked him to show us what exactly he had in mind. And this is what he came up with....

We thought his idea was rather cool so we made it mobile friendly and added the ability to dynamically add new languages for him. It currently has five languages, managing translations and adding new languages is a breeze.

Active Navigation via QR codes

Mobile devices with GPS (Global Positioning System) capabilities and that have one or other navigation application onboard can make use of QR codes to activate as example, a route planner, for realtime navigation activation.

Like the sextant (six piece od a circle measurement) a nautical and astronimical device to determine the longitude using Greenwich time, our modern electronic devices need three components to make it work.

• GPS receiver and processor
• Navigation and mapping application
• QR Code reader capable of understanding geo-encoded data

Creating navigation QR codes

QR4 provides a free QR Code Navigation Generator

There are other geolocation and routing options

For devices that do not have GPS, nor mapping capabilities, but do have a QR code reader the use of an Internet service is the best choice to show where the co-ordinates you have encoded are on the globe. It stands to reason that navigation will need to be done externally by entering your current location in the online service.

The requirements for this type of service are:

• Available Internet connection (via any type of connection, teathered or wireless)
• QR code reader capable of understanding a request to go to a resource on the Internet

Passive geolocation and routing

QR4 provides a free QR code Geographic Generator

So now you can implement active and passive (via an external service) geo-location using QR codes.

Which type of QR geo-coding is best to use when and where?

Let me start off with: If it's printed, painted, projected or anything in the analogue world...use QR codes. If it's digital and portable DON'T!

Both types have their merritts. If you want people to know where you are, play safe and use the passive version, knowing that if that service fails or changes it's way of working, your published and printed QR codes could become totally useless. If you need to guide people to your location the navigation QR code is your best option, but will only work with mobile devices meeting the three criteria for direct navigation ability. The choice is yours. As complete measure you could consider providing both geo-location types to service as wide an audience as possible.
