E-Authentication Using QR Code and OTP

This document discusses using QR codes and one-time passwords (OTP) for electronic authentication. It describes how QR codes store data that can be accessed instantly, and how OTPs are automatically generated strings that authenticate a single transaction. The proposed system would have users register with basic details, then login and be sent a QR code or OTP for verification. If verified, the user would access the main page. Benefits include more secure login without complex passwords, while drawbacks require an internet connection.
