Two-dimensional, error-corrected barcode readout for point-of-care colorimetrie assays

We report a semiquantitative readout technique using structured Quick Response (QR) codes partially patterned with colorimetric assay. This allows error-corrected readout at point-of-care (POC) the assay using mobile devices while transparently enabling remote tabulation of population-level statistics through analysis of web traffic.
