iOS 7 brings a wealth of new features that set it apart from all other mobile operating systems. Both major additions and minor improvements have been made, offering developers new or updated frameworks and APIs to work with, and the opportunity to provide single users with a much richer experience. The AVFoundation framework is just one of them, as it has accepted great enhancements and new class additions that make even more tools available. One of the new features that the AVFoundation incorporates, is the ability to discover and read bar codes in real-time, and one of the supported bar code types that we especially interested in at this tutorial, is the QR Code.
