QR Code on Headstones
Would it be possible to attach a QR code on headstones to enable those interested in learning more about a particular individual to scan the QR with their phone and get info from a person page or a brief life sketch with a link to Family Search for further info.

Surely that is a question to be addressed to the authority in charge of the graveyard / cemetery?

The possibility exists, but, as Adrian says, the cemetery and the owner of the plot would have to be consulted. https://monuments.com/store/headstones-accessories/living-headstones-qr-code https://www.npr.org/2012/09/29/162011967/qr-codes-for-headstones-keep-dearly-departed-close

Find a Grave does exactly what you want. You search for and find a name which has a photo of the tombstone and (maybe) some information about the person including where they were buried or what the disposition of their remains is. It depends on people taking the time to take an image of the tombstone and people to create accounts and provide the information. Is your intent that this QR code would require this be done all over again? Or would it just bring up the Find a Grave web page?
