Text is for reading by humans.

QR codes are for reading by computers.

I wondered if it would be possible to have images that could be read by both 
humans and computers.

I am experimenting with trying to produce images that are in some ways similar 
to QR codes yet in many ways different from QR codes such that they could be 
read by both humans and computers.

I have produced a font to support this experimentation.

Here is a link to the High-Logic forum thread where there is more information 
and from where the font can be obtained.

The first and fifth posts in the thread are relevant to Unicode.

I am wondering whether the idea could have practical application for entering 
some characters that are not available on keyboards.

I am wondering whether the idea could have practical application for being able 
to enter characters without pressing keys, for example if someone is travelling 
without a keyboard or if someone is unable to press keys.

Please find attached an example image.
