The technology behind the Visualead’s visual QR codes is a unique, patent-pending image processing system developed by Visualead's image processing and algorithms experts.
The platform enables its users to merge a QR Code with an image while preserving it as a fully operational QR Code.
Visualead’s technology doesn’t abuse any of the error correction cells in order to improve the aesthetics of the QR Code.
The technology’s ingenuity lies in the fact that it transforms the QR Code into a visually appealing attractive image that is still recognized by a standard QR Reader application as a typical, untouched black and white QR Code which it can decode regularly.
Creating a Visual QR Code with the use of Visualead's Visual QR Code Generator is quick & easy and takes less than a minute.
All you have to do is select any image you want from your computer or from Visualead's image gallery, define your QR Code’s destination and place the QR Code anywhere onto your desired image.
Visualead’s generator will then instantly produce your Visual QR Code by merging the QR Code with the image of your choice.
