Thought I would share a useful find, something I had been testing for potential TEL projects. Its a handy bar code creator on TEC-IT website. Allows users to create specific barcodes with any alpha numerical text! Its free for non-commercial use..., hence the logo below, thank you TEC-IT ;)
Yes this one also says 'Hello World!'.
Google have a quick method for generating QR-type barcodes. If you take this string:
ReplyDeletehttp://chart.apis.google.com/chart?chs=150x150&cht=qr&chld=L%7C1&choe=UTF-8&chl=
...and add your URL at the end, after the '=' sign, then point your browser at the resulting address, you'll get a nice QR code of your URL.
An android browser plug-in for instantly generating QRs from URLs anywhere in a page would be nice, as would a 'Barcode Scanner' feature to scan an image file (e.g. .jpg or .png) and read barcodes from files.
Thanks John a very handy tip, a useful addition to this post. Thanks for commenting :)
