The QR code(二维码) has become an important part of our lives. We use it almost every day. But have you ever wondered who invented the QR code?
In the 1960s, supermarkets began to appear in many neighborhoods in Japan. Cashiers(收银员) had to put the price of each product in the computer by hand. It was really hard work.
Later, the barcode(条形码) came out and solved the problem. It made its users' work easier, but there was a new problem: the barcode could just hold a little information.
So, a lot of developers started working to improve the barcode. Masahiro Hara was one of them. He thought, “With t

With 2D codes, information can be coded in two directions: across and up/down.” So, Hara set out to develop a new 2D code holding a large amount of information. To make it be read as fast as possible, he made the code black and white, and square.
In 1994, Hara's QR code came out. The QR means quick response(反应). It was soon used by a car company and later in the food industry. It was such a success that Hara could use it to get plenty of money, but he didn't. He made it public so that anyone could use it freely. “The more people use it, the more new ways of using it there will be. I think this is why the QR code was
