FACT: Idahoans Will Soon Be Scanning Codes In Sky To Buy Stuff

The future of sales and advertising is here. Drones will be used very soon to promote companies and sell goods to human beings through laser beam QR codes, so don't be surprised if you see this technology being tested in the sky above Idaho in the next couple of years.

Get ready to have your mind blown. I read a story this week about China using drones to cast codes in the nighttime sky that allowed citizens to make purchases by scanning the images with their phones. This "AI marketing" stunt that recently made headlines originated in Shanghai, and it's something right out of Bladerunner and The Fifth Element.

To think that our view of the stars could soon be blocked by QR codes is a wild theory, but that's exactly what international technology brains are testing out at this very moment.

One hundred years ago, the majority of advertising came from television, radio, storefront window displays, magazines, and newspapers, and it's how people still get informed today. Well, it appears the next decade in advertising and purchasing will be revolutionized thanks to a successful public relations experiment overseas.

Can you imagine stepping outside of your home and scanning codes created by drones in the sky to buy goods or take advantage of special offers from companies? I remember being blown away a few years back when schools scrapped textbooks for tablets, but this development is absolutely crazy and is no doubt going to cause a major international marketing race to fine-tune the use of drones in this capacity.

To think that our view of the stars could soon be blocked by QR codes is a wild theory, but that's exactly what international technology brains are testing out at this very moment.
