The XPAND Code, Super Contactless Linking ToolXPAND K.K.
It compensates for the weaknesses of the QR Code, such as harmony with the landscape and design, and reading the code from long distances.
At a football stadium, we have successfully read the XPAND Code from a distance of 215 meters.
When read from the same distance, XPAND Codes can be installed in less than 20% of the area of a QR Code.
Use the QR Code for short distances and small spaces, and use the XPAND Code for long distances, large spaces, and places where high design quality is required.
This allows you to make the most of limited space and link from any physical object to your smartphone.
It can help create new services, such as linking store signage and delivery vehicles to smartphones.
Both XPAND Codes and QR Codes can be read by the same apps.
In addition, we have also launched a reading app with no installation required.
The XPAND Code can be downloaded immediately from a dedicated website.
Moreover, a free plan is also available.
We invite you to try this new experience of connecting things to your smartphone.
Try It and You’ll See!
The XPAND Code is available for free immediately.
Please try it!
