Quick Respond code (QR code) is first designated for the automotive industry in Japan.
QR code is a kind of two-dimensional barcode which stores various information such as
video, application, online registration and so on. The function of QR code is to facilitate
boat passengers to see the safety tutorial when on the ferry or boat without requiring
demonstration from the crew. This innovative project is in line with the development of
today's technology that uses smartphones as the primary medium in delivering
information. In addition, the main purpose of this project is to open the minds of
passengers on the importance of safety on the ferry or boat. This project is conducted
because of the lack of exposure to safety in the correct way. Almost all ferries and boat
have no demonstrator on how to properly use the safety equipment. By this innovation,
passengers will be much easier to follow safety measures during anxiety and repeatedly.
The advantages of this innovation project, as well as passengers, can learn safety
knowledge, passengers can also practice these safety measures at other times. Through
the participation in convention, it is hoped that this innovative project can be introduced
and practiced in a higher and widely used manner. The emphasis on this safety function
can be used as a guide for passengers to follow proper steps or methods using safety
tools during emergencies and have knowledge of the importance of safety either on the
passenger boat or otherwise.
