The world’s largest golf facility, Mission Hills Shenzhen, China claimed a world record “human” QR Code. The QR Code was formed by almost 2,000 of their staff with umbrellas. I have not been able to find a scannable photo. The QR Code is supposed to resolve to a campaign website promoting sustainable eco-tourism and a prize draw. Umbrella QR Codes seem to be fashionable at the moment, like this one from Taiwan.

Great Video, my local TV station WZZM 13 created a new WZZM-TV iPad app and created a new QR Code with their logo. they placed in a new TV ad to download the app. The graphic designer removed the quiet zone, so I could not scan it with my iPad no matter how hard I tried. Their original ad with a simple QR code works fine, see it here Original WZZM 13 QR Code TV Ad.

I think the best QR Codes for TV application will be created at Visual Lead or QRMovie (amazing).

Fused Glass QR Code Art
Michigan Artist Nina Cambron has created three awesome fused glass QR codes:
Check out her web page for more information: www.ninacambron.com! If you are into QR Codes, purchase one now before they are all gone. A great way to show what a QR code is capable of doing. I like that the messages on two of the art works are not static, she is using a technique similar to the one I outline in my QR Code URL post, only she is using audio files, giving inspiration or foretelling the future!

When a person suffers cardiac arrest, most people don’t know what to do. That’s why the Dutch Heart Foundation developed an IPhone app. The IPhone app provides audio support for performing CPR.
They wanted to encourage people to download the app by combining the problem and the solution in one visual. They developed a print ad with a QR-code, entirely made of real people.
Scan the picture, if you can or the video at 1:21 with a QR-reader and it will send you immediately to the app-store, to download the Dutch CPR app.
The IPhone app is in Dutch and the QR Code is difficult to scan, but it does scan (video at 1:21.)
