    From QR code wiki page, first sentence..
    "A QR code (short for "quick-response code") is a type of two-dimensional matrix barcode, invented in 1994, by Japanese company Denso Wave for labelling automobile parts."
    Please don't just say something because you think it makes sense. This took 7 seconds to fact check.. there's no reason you couldn't have fact checked your script before shooting.
