Abstract(in English) Since a QR-code includes lots of information in a small area, it is widely applied to systems of manufactures, logistics and sales. However, recognition of a QR-code needs high resolution. In practice, recognition of a QR-code becomes difficult when the camera is far from QR-codes, so it is necessary to capture images in a short distance. In this paper, we proposed the method to enhance the performance of QR-code recognition from low resolution images. In the proposed method, we enhanced the performance with the super-resolution techniques, which generates a high-resolution image from two or more low-resolution images. To fit images for recognition and enhance the performance, the features that QR-code made by binary pattern are used. The experiment showed that the recognition rate achives 98% in the low-resolution images which conventional methods can not handle. Compared to the conventional super-resolution method, the recognition rate of the proposed method increased by 15.7% in average and 38.0% in maximum.
