Question

________ are two-dimensional barcodes with a high storage capacity that are typically used to point the consumer to a particular Web page when he or she scans the barcode with a mobile device's camera. Select one: a. MSI barcodes b. CPC Binary Barcodes c. QR codes d. MaxiCodes e. Viral codes

Answer 1

QR Codes

Step-by-step explanation:

From option A to E, QR best fills in the gap.

Literally, QR codes are extensions of conventional barcodes; but they (the QR codes) contain machine readable codes. They are used to store up to a hundred times more information than on a conventional horizontal barcode and are used to direct users to a URL on the web page or other information. This can only be achieved when the phone is used to scan the code. Once the scanning is successful, the user is directed to an address on the webpage. In addition to this, the scanning can be done in 360° (any direction).

A QR code looks like a two dimensional array of black and white squares barcodes.

In conclusion, the QR code can be used to home information such as a phone number, an SMS or email message, contact details and lots more.
