“…The major purpose of QR codes is for Smartphone users to link the website quickly or acquire the related data immediately without any typing. Because of its fast readability and greater storage capacity, recently, QR code has become popular outside and widely applied to applications of commercial tracking, transport ticketing, product labeling, personal contact information, and so on [2,4].…”

Quick response (QR) code is a convenient product for mobile phone user. People can use the Smartphone camera to capture the code, and then decode it through dedicated reader application. Usually the code stands for text, contact information, or a web hyperlink. Users scan the image of QR code to display information or open a website page in the phone's browser. QR codes appear everywhere on posters, publicity flyers, TV advertisements, and even business cards. Since QR code looks like random noise, its existence may hurt the picture of commodities. In this paper, we propose a data embedding scheme to camouflage the existence of QR code. Experimental results showed that the proposed scheme hides the QR code successfully. Moreover, the quality of stego-images is nearly to 30 dB.

Quick response (QR) code is a convenient product for mobile phone users. People can use a smartphone camera to capture the code, and then decode it through a dedicated reader application. Specifically, that code stands for concise text, contact information, or a web hyperlink. Its existence assists phone users in keypad typing more easily. This paper proposes an on-street parking fee payment mechanism based on the QR code of an E-bill. People can regard the code as a bill to pay their parking fee, where the parking information is recorded into a remote server by the fee collectors. The main idea of this mechanism is to save on resources such as reducing paper consumption. Simulation results showed that the proposed mobile application provides a new mode for E-bill payment for on-street parking in Taiwan. Furthermore, the said application also serves as an exemplary model for other parking payment methods.

“…Before linking to the website, a designated uniform resource locator (URL) must be inputted in advance. As we all know, it is more difficult and time-consuming to type using a phone keypad than a common keyboard [8,15]. To solve this problem, the quick response code [5,11,14], QR code for short, was introduced in 1994.…”

Quick response (QR) code is the prevalent trademark for a type of matrix barcode symbol. That code is always scanned to efficiently acquire data, especially for mobile device users. It involves the capabilities of data storage, reliable readability and strong error correction. This paper utilizes these properties of a QR code to propose an image tamper detection and recovery scheme for grayscale images. The image to be protected is first subsampled and decomposed the principal energy compaction for image blocks. These are regarded as the image authentication and recovery data and then are encoded into the pattern of a QR code. The QR code is subsequently embedded into the original image. Experimental results showed that the authentication and recovery data in a QR code is able to sustain certain perceptible distortions such that the proposed scheme can detect tampered regions clearly and recover them roughly. Moreover, the proposed scheme also provides a better embedded image quality in comparison with the previous method.
