QR codes were invented by Japanese engineer Masahiro Hara at Denso Wave in 1994, originally to track car parts in Toyota factories. They went global during the pandemic. The maximum data capacity is about 4,300 alphanumeric characters — but the more you cram in, the harder the code is for a phone to read in low light.
