Windows 8.1 - QR reader

[Craig_W]

Has anybody successfully deployed a QR Reader for Windows 8.1 that makes use of a tablets webcam? There are some on the Windows store, but I have yet to figure out how to deploy these on mass (if possible at all!) and would just like something that is possibly msi format to deploy with GPO. Alternatively if anybody can advise how to deploy from the Windows Store?

 

Have tried Quickmark with no joy.

 

Thanks

Didn't know whether to revive this thread or create a new one, and then I thought..to heck with it...

 

I have been asked to put a QR scanner on all 70 lenovo YOGA laptops. Has anyone done it and can tell me how?

1. Go to www.the-qrcode-generator.com/scan. Grant access to webcam. Scan QR Code.
   
2. Job done!

Hmmm

Granting permanent access to webcam for students to use the above site isn't proving very easy

Did you add the URL above to the Chrome GPO called "URLs that will be granted access to video capture devices without prompt"? It works for me.

We managed to get a QR code reader working on the lenovos but the camera doesnt seem to be good enough to read any code, which surprised me. There doesnt seem to be anything I can do about it, sadly
