         *
         * The default coordinate system (code space) for the 2D locations of the modules is defined as follows (similar to images):
         *   * the x-axis points right,
         *   * the y-axis points down, and
         *   * the origin is in the top-left corner of the QR code
         *   * the pixel origin is in the top-left corner of each pixel
         *
         * In the example below, `s` is the number of modules per side:
         *
         * <pre>
         *   (0, 0)          (s, 0)

         *            y-axis
         * </pre>
         *
         * The coordinate system for 3D locations of modules in its (normalized) object space is defined as follows:
         *  * the x-axis points right in the QR code plane
         *  * the y-axis points up in the QR code plane
         *  * the z-axis points upwards (normal of the QR code plane, pointing towards the camera)
         *  * the origin is in the center of the QR code
         *  * the pixel origin is in the center of each pixel
         *
         * <pre>
         *               y
         *   (-1, 1, 0)  ^    (1, 1, 0)
         *           +---|---+

         * </pre>
         *
         * The conversion from the first coordinate system (2D) to normalized object space (3D) is defined as follows:
         *
         * <pre>
         *  x' = ((2 / s) * x) - 1
         *  y' = ((-2 / s) * y) + 1
         *  z' = 0
