Abstract


An optical label with machine-readable information about the object it is attached to is called a quick response (QR) code. QR codes frequently hold information for a tracker, locator, or identifier that directs users to a website or application. To efficiently store data, a QR code has four standardized encoding modes: kanji, byte or binary, alphanumeric, and numeric. As a means of identifying a wide range of commercial goods, including transactions, ads, and other public notices, the QR code gained popularity. In our web portal, the proposed QR code model synchronizes all the event details synchronously in the mobile calendar. QR code is used for web-to-mobile data transfer, saving events or meeting details in the mobile calendar. Anyone with a smartphone can view the data encoded in a QR code by scanning it. Although it makes it easier for end users to decode QR codes, verifying access to the encoded data is a cause for worry. Our proposed model validates access to data through the QR code, allowing only authorized personnel to access data. To ensure accessibility control, the proposed model has the functionality of a one-time password (OTP) that enhances application security. The model achieved an average decoding speed of 157 milliseconds with an error rate of 0.38%.
