Pikes Makerspace (PPM) uses unique QR Codes throughout the building:

QR Code on our "Mall Map", which links to the PPM Wiki Main page.
QR Code to link to our Waiver.
QR Code to Check-in / Check-out to our Wood Shop.
QR Code on our storage cabinet in our Vented Room.

We use QR Codes to link to payment services such as Cheddar Up and PayPal.
We use QR Codes for promoting services such as King Soopers Rewards and events like Repair Cafe.

Finally, we have plans to incorporate QR Code usage even more extensively in the very near future, to link into our wiki, for example.
