Guinness QR Cup Reveals Scannable Code When Full

We had the Korean retailer's 3-D sunlight-activated QR code, which was scannable only at lunch, when the shadows lined up. Now, we have this Guinness QR code on a beer glass, dreamed up by BBDO New York.

Shadow-Activated QR Code Actually Useful and Cool

That's why it's nice to see this case study from Korea, where a retailer increased lunchtime sales by 25 percent with a shadow-based QR code that's only scannable in the middle of the day. Emart's "Sunny Sale" codes are created with three-dimensional displays outside several dozen locations in Seoul. When the sun is at its zenith, the shadows line up, allowing the code to be scanned for access to coupons and online ordering. It's a smart idea that, in the short term at least, has generated plenty of strong PR and sales. Moving Brands - a global branding company.

From services to servers, printing to networking, storage to mobility and far beyond, HP have lead the market in almost every category in which they operate. However, after over 50 acquisitions in five years, the business had lost its forward-leaning culture, and the once iconic brand was deemed “dull” and “lifeless” by consumers and business customers alike. The power of the portfolio could only be fully leveraged by aligning it behind a compelling vision. Horse-pen.
