The codes are all over Japan, you could probably use a smart phone from space,take a snapshot and get a coupon because they are so commonplace. There was 42.1% growth in USA in Q3 2011 with companies looking for new ways they can exploit this old technology. QR codes have been around for a while, even in the 90′s.
