NoiR Code — a QR code that's also a noir comic panel

NoiR Code

Your message, hidden in the shadows of a nocturnal city of rain.

NoiR Code is a QR-like visual encoder where the code<br>is a noir comic panel. It turns text into a scannable,<br>rain-soaked halftone cityscape — a low-resolution engraving of a city<br>whose cell centres carry the data — and decodes it back from an<br>uploaded image, a remote image URL, or a live camera scan.

Encode any short text or link into a unique noir panel.

Decode by upload, by image URL, or with your camera.

Reed–Solomon error correction survives glare, blur and creases.

Works from phone photos, screenshots and uneven lighting.

Open noir-code.suncake.xyz in a modern browser to<br>encode and decode interactively. Source on<br>GitHub.
