A barcode reader or barcode scanner is an optical scanner that can read printed barcodes and send the data they contain to computer. [1] Like a flatbed scanner, it consists of a light source, a lens, and a light sensor for translating optical impulses into electrical signals. Additionally, nearly all barcode readers contain decoder circuitry ...
Barcode. A UPC-A barcode. A barcode or bar code is a method of representing data in a visual, machine-readable form. Initially, barcodes represented data by varying the widths, spacings and sizes of parallel lines. These barcodes, now commonly referred to as linear or one-dimensional (1D), can be scanned by special optical scanners, called ...
Extended Channel Interpretation. Extended Channel Interpretation (ECI) is an extension to the communication protocol that is used to transmit data from a bar code reader to a host when a bar code symbol is scanned. It enables the application software to receive additional information about the intended interpretation of the message contained ...
High Capacity Color Barcode ( HCCB) is a technology developed by Microsoft for encoding data in a 2D "barcode" using clusters of colored triangles instead of the square pixels conventionally associated with 2D barcodes or QR codes. [1] Data density is increased by using a palette of 4 or 8 colors for the triangles, although HCCB also permits ...
Online Barcode Generator - Free online barcode generator, 1D and 2D. Sample code [ edit ] ZXing – Multiplatform open source barcode scanner / generator with versions available in Java (core project) and ports to ActionScript, C++, C#, ObjectiveC and Ruby.
JAB Code. JAB Code (Just Another Barcode) is a colour 2D matrix symbology made of colour squares arranged in either square or rectangle grids. It was developed by Fraunhofer Institute SIT (Secure Information Technology). [1] The code contains one primary symbol and optionally multiple secondary symbols. The primary symbol contains four finder ...
Co-inventor of the barcode. Norman Joseph Woodland (September 6, 1921 – December 9, 2012) was an American inventor and engineer, best known as one of the inventors of the barcode, for which he received a patent in October 1952. [1] [2] Later, employed by IBM, he developed the format which became the ubiquitous Universal Product Code (UPC) of ...
Barcode library or Barcode SDK is a software library that can be used to add barcode features to desktop, web, mobile or embedded applications. Barcode library presents sets of subroutines or objects which allow to create barcode images and put them on surfaces or recognize machine-encoded text / data from scanned or captured by camera images ...
