Error detection

The QR code uses the Reed-Solomon algorithm to add error detection and correction information to source data.

Error correction

QR Code uses the Reed-Solomon algorithm for error correction. Four selectable levels of error correction are available, which enables the barcode to be read even if up to 30 percent of the code is damaged.

Usage

Today, QR codes have become common in areas such as online or app payments, augmented reality, mobile operating systems, website login, loyalty programs, virtual stores, in marketing and advertising campaigns, and more.
