Security Imaging is always looking for ways to use new technology in the Security Industry. We now offer a new service allowing you to verify your employees using your Apple iPhone and QR barcode.
Please review the information below explaining what a QR barcode is, how Security Imaging's QR Verify program works and to see if your phone is compatible.
What is a QR Code?
Although initially used for tracking parts in vehicle manufacturing, QR barcodes are now used in a much broader context, including both commercial tracking applications and convenience-oriented applications aimed at mobile phone users (known as mobile tagging). QR barcodes storing addresses and URLs may appear in magazines, on signs, buses, business cards or just about any object that users might need information about.
QR Verify
Security Imaging is now offering a new service called QR verify, allowing you to verify your companies photo credentials using your Apple iPhone and a QR code.
Security Imaging can create a layout that fits the proportions of the viewing screen on the iPhone. We will create the QR barcode so when scanned it will open the file of the credential you need to validate. Digital files will be stored with an FTP service (Box.net) for viewing at anytime.
This service allows you or even your clients to view an employees badge to verify that they are an active employee and that their ID badge is valid. The service can also help with Emergency Management, Security Events, Membership & School Security.
How can I use my iPhone/Camera equipped phone to read QR barcodes?
Users with a camera phone equipped with the correct reader software can scan the image of a QR Barcode causing the phone's browser to launch and redirect to the programmed URL.
There are many applications available that allow you to read QR Barcodes, we use Neo Reader, you can checkout their website to see if your phone is compatible.
If using a phone not listed on the Neo Site please check with your phone carrier to see if your phone is capable of reading QR Barcodes and to see if there is software available.
