Crowd Sourcing Broken QR Codes

Comments (1)

devmandan · 1d ago

A software tool should exist to repair QR codes. People could really benefit from it because QR codes are used everywhere.

I'd like to find a way to repair QR codes through software. However, that begins with collecting a bunch of broken and corrupted QR codes people stumble across and fixing them up by hand. This will help spot patterns in how they fail. So please help out by submitting your QR code that doesn't scan. Please don't create QR codes that don't scan just to submit them. Thank you! In the past I have fixed one QR code by hand and it is shown at the link.
