New QR Code App in the additive RGB color system for higher accumulated information density : Free implementation in Google Colab for designers, freelancers, makers and Open Source coders

The decision to use Google Colab for this project is based on the need to make the technology accessible to a wider audience (especially traditional graphic designers – old-school pencil and paper artists –, freelancers and diverse makers and/or budding AI coders), including all those with no prior...
