Bar Codes on Billboards
As Technology is vastly improving everyday people are using it more and more. Bar codes are usually known for being used in magazines and newspapers or even on objects when shopping and then they are scanned to then pay for your items. Recently there has been a new type of bar code that has been brought out and seems to fit in well with the day and age. This is known as a QR code, although it has been around since 1994, they have updated it a lot and now people are able to scan this code on their phone and it instantly comes up on their phone with the link. This is an amazing use of technology and is starting to become more popular all over the world.



The amazing thing about using a QR code on a billboard is if i wanted i could simply just have a plain white billboard with this QR code on it. This in ways can surprisingly be effected as that is the only thing visible so people will want to scan the code to see what the billboard actually is.

 

 This imagine stood out the most for me as i found it inspiring to those billboards that use the QR code. This is so cleverly done and draws a main attraction to the place as well as the billboards. By billboards being well known it can become global. This is why using objects and using locations is imortant when producing my own billboard.
