  • Abstract
    2D barcodes typically store data such as a product´s lot number and expiration date, and a URL for the manufacturer´s website. They could also take a user to an advertiser´s website. The barcodes are most widely used for marketing, such as to enable customers to get coupons, obtain store or product information, or participate in promotional contests.
