Yes, they can. Anything you can put in a URL will work in a QR code. > Your mention of QRs opening URLs made me wonder if I could have the web > app collect each scan one at a time and store temporarily.

Well, if they're regular barcodes, the Android barcode reader might be able to read them just fine. I know that I've used mine to read several different barcode formats. I don't remember which ones any more because it was quite some time ago.
