I only had my smartphone camera with me today. But it seems that 2D barcodes are used for rollercoaster train positioning systems nowadays. Wtf? I've only seen this being specified for systems at speeds up to 10 m/s which is likely exceeded here. I think it goes fully around. Any ideas on this fellow nerds?
