Terence Eden’s Blog<p><strong>QR Business Cards and Moo.com</strong></p><p><a href="https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2011/06/qr-business-cards-and-moo-com/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">shkspr.mobi/blog/2011/06/qr-bu</span><span class="invisible">siness-cards-and-moo-com/</span></a></p><p></p><blockquote><p><a href="http://uk.moo.com/ideas/better-connections-with-qr-codes.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">An edited version of this paid-for post appeared at Moo.com on the 7th of June</a></p></blockquote><p>QR codes are <em>awesome</em>! I mean, you may think your <a href="http://moo.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">moo mini-cards</a> are pretty funky - but they're <em>nothing</em> without a QR code.</p><p>Why do you hand your card over to someone? You want the recipient to plug your contact details into their address book, right? So you give them a bit of card and then you expect them to tap away on their phone, like a primitive ape, until they've saved your number. And hope they've saved it correctly.</p><p>That's just so.... <em>analogue</em>... Isn't there a better way of doing things?</p><p>Yes. Yes there is. QR Codes are here and they are going to <strong>ROCK YOUR WORLD</strong>!</p><p><strong>Introducing QR Codes</strong></p><p>QR Codes are two dimensional barcodes which can quickly and easily be scanned by most camera phones. They're free to create, easy to use, and they look like this.Go take a look in your phone's app store - you'll find several free readers. If you can't, point your phone to <a href="http://GetReader.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">GetReader.com</a> to see what's available for your device.</p><p>QR Codes can contain many different types of data - URL, phone number, SMS, and vCard. I'm going to show you how you can integrate these into your Moo Cards.</p><p><strong>URL</strong></p><p>With a QR code on your Moo Card, you can point people straight to your blog.To your .tel website.Or any other site you like. Perhaps to search Twitter for your hashtag?</p><p><strong>Phone Number</strong></p><p>Scanning in this code will prompt your phone to give me a call. Why not leave me a message?</p><p><strong>SMS</strong></p><p>Want someone to scan your card and send you a message? Dead easy.</p><p><strong>vCard</strong></p><p>Scan this code and my address will appear in your phonebook as if by <em>magic</em>One thing to note is that these QR codes are rather large - it's probably best to print them on full size cards.</p><p><strong>Putting It All Together</strong></p><p>Here are some of my cards. I've used free or Creative-Commons images of phones and placed the QR code inside them.</p><p><strong>Resources</strong></p><p>There are several free sites you can use to create your QR Codes.I recommend using <a href="http://www.qrstuff.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">QRstuff</a> to generate these codes.You can also use <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20110721040646/http://code.google.com/apis/chart/image/docs/gallery/qr_codes.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Google Charts for QR Codes</a> if you want dynamic, highly customised codes.Finally, if you want to generate QR codes on your own site, there are several free resources. I use Swetake's <a href="https://www.swetake.com/qrcode/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">QRCode v0.50</a>.</p><p><strong>Final Tips</strong></p><p>Here are some tips to make sure you get the most out of your QR codes.</p><ul><li>Use black ink on a white background to ensure the code is readable.</li><li>Ensure there is some whitespace around the code.</li><li>If you resize the QR codes, don't use any interpolation.</li><li>QR Codes can have variable error-correction. Unless your codes are likely to get dirty, you can set this to "low".</li><li>If you're pointing people to a URL, make sure it's mobile friendly.</li><li>Make sure your phone numbers are in International Format (+44 for the UK).</li><li>Be creative! QR Codes are appearing on everything from <a href="https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2011/04/ubiquitous-qr-codes/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">advertising posters to urban graffiti</a> - make sure yours stand out.</li></ul><p></p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://shkspr.mobi/blog/tag/business-cards/" target="_blank">#businessCards</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://shkspr.mobi/blog/tag/howto/" target="_blank">#HowTo</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://shkspr.mobi/blog/tag/moo/" target="_blank">#moo</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://shkspr.mobi/blog/tag/moo-cards/" target="_blank">#mooCards</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://shkspr.mobi/blog/tag/moo-com/" target="_blank">#mooCom</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://shkspr.mobi/blog/tag/qr/" target="_blank">#qr</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://shkspr.mobi/blog/tag/qr-codes/" target="_blank">#QRCodes</a></p>

What if each individual pixel were a QR code?</p><p>There's two fundamental problems with that idea. Firstly, a QR code needs whitespace around it in order to be scanned properly.</p><p>So I focussed on the top left positional marker. There's plenty of whitespace there.</p><p>Secondly, because QR codes contain a lot of white pixels inside them, scaling down the code usually results in a grey square - which is unlikely to be recognised as a black pixel when scanning.</p><p>So I cheated! I made the smaller code transparent and gradually increased its opacity as it grows larger.</p><p>I took a Version 2 QR code - which is 25px wide.

That will be the base image.</p><p>Take the original 25px code and blow it up to the size of the new marker, 300px * 300px. Place it on a new transparent canvas the size of the base image, and place it where the marker is - 400px from the top and left.</p><p>Next step is creating the image sequence for zooming in. The aim is to move in to the target area, then directly zoom in.</p><p>The whole code, if you want to build one yourself, is:</p><pre><code>#!/bin/bash# Input fileinput="25.png"# Add a whitespace borderconvert "$input" -bordercolor white -border 2 29.png# Upscaled image sizeupscaled_size=2900# Scale it up for the baseconvert 29.png -scale "${upscaled_size}x${upscaled_size}"\! base.png# Create the overlayconvert -size "${upscaled_size}x${upscaled_size}" xc:none canvas.pngconvert "$input" -scale 300x300\! 300.pngconvert canvas.png 300.png -geometry +400+400 -composite overlay.png# Start crop size (full image) and end crop size (target region)start_crop=$upscaled_sizeend_crop=350# Zoom-in target position (top-left corner)target_x=375target_y=375# Start with a completely opaque imageoriginal_opacity=0# Number of intermediate imagessteps=100for i in $(seq 0 $((steps - 1))); do # Calculate current crop size crop_size=$(echo "$start_crop - ($start_crop - $end_crop) * $i / ($steps - 1)" | bc) crop_size=$(printf "%.0f" "$crop_size") # Round to nearest integer # Keep zoom centered on the target crop_x_offset=$(echo "$target_x - ($crop_size - $end_crop) / 2" | bc) crop_y_offset=$(echo "$target_y - ($crop_size - $end_crop) / 2" | bc) # Once centred, zoom in normally if (( crop_x_offset &lt; 0 )); then crop_x_offset=0; fi if (( crop_y_offset &lt; 0 )); then crop_y_offset=0; fi # Generate output filenames background_file=$(printf "%s_%03d.png" "background" "$i") overlay_file=$(printf "%s_%03d.png" "overlay" "$i") combined_file=$(printf "%s_%03d.png" "combined" "$i") # Crop and resize the base convert "base.png" -crop "${crop_size}x${crop_size}+${crop_x_offset}+${crop_y_offset}" \ -resize "${upscaled_size}x${upscaled_size}" \ "$background_file" # Transparancy for the overlay opacity=$(echo "$original_opacity + 0.01 * $i" | bc) # Crop and resize the overlay convert "overlay.png" -alpha on -channel A -evaluate multiply "$opacity" \ -crop "${crop_size}x${crop_size}+${crop_x_offset}+${crop_y_offset}" \ -resize "${upscaled_size}x${upscaled_size}" \ "$overlay_file" # Combine the two files convert "$background_file" "$overlay_file" -composite "$combined_file"done# Create a 25fps video, scaled to 1024pxffmpeg -framerate 25 -i combined_%03d.png -vf "scale=1024:1024" -c:v libx264 -crf 18 -preset slow -pix_fmt yuv420p recursive.mp4</code></pre><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://shkspr.mobi/blog/tag/art/" target="_blank">#art</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://shkspr.mobi/blog/tag/qr/" target="_blank">#qr</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://shkspr.mobi/blog/tag/qr-codes/" target="_blank">#QRCodes</a></p>

Terence Eden’s Blog<p><strong>Why are QR Codes with capital letters smaller than QR codes with lower-case letters?</strong></p><p><a href="https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2025/02/why-are-qr-codes-with-capital-letters-smaller-than-qr-codes-with-lower-case-letters/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">shkspr.mobi/blog/2025/02/why-a</span><span class="invisible">re-qr-codes-with-capital-letters-smaller-than-qr-codes-with-lower-case-letters/</span></a></p><p>Take a look at these two QR codes. Scan them if you like, I promise there's nothing dodgy in them.</p> <p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Left is upper-case <code>HTTPS://EDENT.TEL/</code> and right is lower-case <code>https://edent.tel/</code></p><p>You can clearly see that the one on the left is a "smaller" QR as it has fewer bits of data in it. Both go to the same URl, the only difference is the casing.</p><p>What's going on?</p><p>Your first thought might be that there's a different level of error-correction. QR codes can have increasing levels of redundancy in order to make sure they can be scanned when damaged. But, in this case, they both have <strong>L</strong>ow error correction.</p><p>The smaller code is "Type 1" - it is 21px * 21px. The larger is "Type 2" with 25px * 25px.</p><p>The <a href="https://www.qrcode.com/en/about/version.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">official specification</a> describes the versions in more details. The smaller code should be able to hold 25 alphanumeric character. But <code>https://edent.tel/</code> is only 18 characters long. So why is it bumped into a larger code?</p><p>Using a decoder like <a href="https://zxing.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">ZXING</a> it is possible to see the raw bytes of each code.</p><p>UPPER</p><pre><code>20 93 1a a6 54 63 dd 28 35 1b 50 e9 3b dc 00 ec11 ec 11 </code></pre><p>lower:</p><pre><code>41 26 87 47 47 07 33 a2 f2 f6 56 46 56 e7 42 e746 56 c2 f0 ec 11 ec 11 ec 11 ec 11 ec 11 ec 11ec 11 </code></pre><p>You might have noticed that they both end with the same sequence: <code>ec 11</code> Those are "padding bytes" because the data needs to completely fill the QR code. But - hang on! - not only does the UPPER one safely contain the text, it also has some spare padding?</p><p>The answer lies in the first couple of bytes.</p><p>Once the raw bytes have been read, a QR scanner needs to know exactly what sort of code it is dealing with. <a href="https://www.thonky.com/qr-code-tutorial/data-encoding#step-3-add-the-mode-indicator" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">The first four <em>bits</em> tell it the mode</a>. Let's convert the hex to binary and then split after the first four bits:</p>TypeHEXBINSplitUPPER<code>20 93</code><code>00100000 10010011</code><code>0010 000010010011</code>lower<code>41 26</code><code>01000001 00100110</code><code>0100 000100100110</code><p>The UPPER code is <code>0010</code> which indicates it is Alphanumeric - the standard says the next <strong>9</strong> bits show the length of data.</p><p>The lower code is <code>0100</code> which indicates it is Byte mode - the standard says the next <strong>8</strong> bits show the length of data.</p>TypeHEXBINSplitUPPER<code>20 93</code><code>00100000 10010011</code><code>0010 0000 10010</code>lower<code>41 26</code><code>01000001 00100110</code><code>0100 000 10010</code><p>Look at that! They both have a length of <code>10010</code> which, converted to binary, is 18 - the exact length of the text.</p><p>Alphanumeric users 11 bits for every two characters, Byte mode uses (you guessed it!) 8 bits per single character.</p><p>But why is the lower-case code pushed into Byte mode? Isn't it using letters and number?</p><p>Well, yes. But in order to store data efficiently, Alphanumeric mode only has <a href="https://www.thonky.com/qr-code-tutorial/alphanumeric-table" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">a limited subset of characters available</a>. Upper-case letters, and a handful of punctuation symbols: <code>space $ % * + - . / :</code></p><p>Luckily, that's enough for a protocol, domain, and path. Sadly, no GET parameters.</p><p>So, there you have it. If you want the smallest possible <em>physical</em> size for a QR code which contains a URl, make sure the text is all in capital letters.</p> <p>This blog post was exhibited at <a href="https://qrshow.nyc/retrospective.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">QR Show, NYC</a></p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://shkspr.mobi/blog/tag/qr/" target="_blank">#qr</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://shkspr.mobi/blog/tag/qr-codes/" target="_blank">#QRCodes</a></p>
