Research On Color Matching Model For Color Qr Code, Fei You Dr., Qingli Zhang Dr., Bruce Welt Prof.

Journal of Applied Packaging Research

Objective To provide a faster and more effective way for consumers to obtain the additional information of product, the color quick response (QR) code is printed on product packaging. To improve decoding accuracy of color QR codes. This paper constructs a color matching model with good performance, which restrains aliasing between two color encoding modules of color QR code. Methods By comparing and analyzing the character of several typical color spaces, the HSV color space was chosen for its favorable attributes. Based on the enlarging capacity principle of color QR code and the maximum rule of relative Euclidean distance, 2 …

Design Thinking As A Framework For Teaching Packaging Innovation, Javier De La Fuente, Irene Carbonell, Mary Laporte

Journal of Applied Packaging Research

Students in scientific/technical-oriented disciplines struggle with achieving good levels of innovation when exposed to design problems. Research indicates the need for implementing alternative pedagogical approaches in technical curricula that enhance students’ creative skills. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the implementation of a cross-disciplinary pedagogical approach with a focus on teaching innovation in the field of packaging engineering at a university in the United States. A Design Thinking Project-Based Learning (DTPBL) approach was used to improve the levels of innovation in student work. Its outcomes were compared with those of a Traditional Project-Based Learning (TPBL) approach. The implementation …
