AI & Artistic QR Codes
Standard QR codes are functional but often look utilitarian. **Artistic QR Codes** change the game by blending data patterns with brand aesthetics. whether you're using high-contrast colors or AI-generated textures, the goal is to create a "digital bridge" that users *want* to interact with.
Design Tips for Scannability
Contrast is King
Always maintain a high contrast ratio between the foreground (dots) and background. Light gray dots on a white background will fail most scanners.
Eyes are Off-Limits
The three large corner squares (Position Markers) must remain clear. If your logo or art overlaps these, the code becomes unreadable.
The Technical Side: Stable Diffusion
How does AI create those "hidden" QR codes? It uses a process called **ControlNet**. The AI is shown the QR code image as a skeletal structure. It then generates an image (like a forest or a city) that follows the dark and light patterns of the QR code dots.
