I really like the idea, described in that BBC article, about supplementing GPS systems with QR blocks at "landing strips". My car's GPS never knows where I am when I leave from my parking spot in the big garage by my office; if the car could "look" at a QR square at the front of the parking spot, it would know just where I am even though shielded from the GPS satellites.
