Generates artificial training data for use with machine learning. More specifically, it currently generates perspective transformed QR codes for the purpose of neural network based detection of QR codes. May output information about the generated pictures in CSV or JSON format. Work in progress.

These libraries are mandatory to run the generator script:

pyqrcode
cv2
numpy

To run the generator script, place it in the same directory (or within a subdirectory of the script directory) 
as a number of images that will serve as the background images. These images are preferably photos of realistic 
and/or common environments.

Then, simply run the generator script to add randomized QR codes to each image, this composite image is saved 
seperately as original_image_name.png. The region of the QR code in the new image is saved as either a CSV or
json file.
