How to use QRreader for Desktop:
1: Make sure you have a working webcam and Adobe AIR installed.
2: Download and install QRreader.
3: Get a scan-able QR code (generated on a device, or printed)
4: Hold up the QR code to your webcam. Make sure your webcam can see the entire code, and that your code is evenly lit.
5: If your webcam sees the code, the white brackets will turn red. Then you will hear a *beep* sound once the code has been read properly.
