This paper considers the problem of QR codes detection in digital images. In particular, the approach for detection of QR codes is proposed. The approach is based on histogram correlation between the reference image of QR code and the input image. In particular the input image is firstly divided into blocks. These are next used to build binary map of regions similar and dissimilar in terms of histogram to the image of QR code. On the binary map the morphological operations are next applied in order to remove outliers and identify the QR code. The results of applying the introduced approach to various images are presented and discussed. Different lighting conditions, image resolutions and orientations of QR codes are considered.
