+
+SPECIFICATION
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+DENSO WAVE public FrameQR material, including the product overview

+
+The distributed implementation is the original, non-certified Sythos
+Canvas QR profile `sythos-canvas-qr/1`, not DENSO FrameQR. It reserves a
+bounded artwork canvas inside a QR Model 2 ECC-H symbol and does not claim
