A barcode reader (or barcode scanner) is an electronic device that can read and output printed barcodes to a computer. Like a flatbed scanner, it consists of a light source, a lens and a light sensor translating optical impulses into electrical ones.

A QR code uses four standardised encoding modes (numeric, alphanumeric, byte/binary, and Kanji)  to efficiently store data. It consists of black squares arranged in a square grid on a white background, which can be read by an imaging device such as a camera, and processed using QR reader software until the image can be appropriately interpreted. The required data are then extracted from patterns that are present in both horizontal and vertical components of the image.

Generally, a smartphone is used as a QR code scanner, displaying the code and converting it to some useful form (such as a standard URL for a website.QR codes storing addresses and URLs may appear in magazines, on signs, on buses, on business cards, or on almost any object about which users might want information. Users  equipped with the correct reader application can scan the image of the QR code to display text, contact information, connect to a wireless network, or open a web page in the telephone's browser.
