The QR code system was invented in 1994, at the Denso Wave automotive products company, in Japan. [5] [6] [7] The initial alternating-square design presented by the team of researchers, headed by Masahiro Hara, was influenced by the black counters and the white counters played on a Go board; [8] the pattern of position detection was found and determined by applying the least-used ratio (1:1:3 ...
High Capacity Color Barcode. 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 ...
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 ...
ZBar is an open-source C barcode reading library with C++, Python, [2] Perl, and Ruby bindings. [3] [4] [5] It is also implemented on Linux and Microsoft Windows as a command-line application, [6] and as an iPhone application. [7] It was originally developed at SourceForge. [8]
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 barcode readers, of which ...

Barcode Scanner scanning a QR code. The application Barcode Scanner is an Android app, from the open-source project ZXing (short for Zebra Crossing ), that allows an Android device with imaging hardware (a built-in camera) to scan barcodes or 2D barcodes and retrieve the data encoded. [2] Information encoded often includes web addresses ...
PDF417. PDF417 is a stacked linear barcode format used in a variety of applications such as transport, identification cards, and inventory management. "PDF" stands for Portable Data File. The "417" signifies that each pattern in the code consists of 4 bars and spaces in a pattern that is 17 units (modules) long.
