Barcodes

EAN
UPC
Databar
Datamatrix
Aztec
QRCode
The one-dimensional barcodes are today present on all consumer goods represented by a EAN in Europe or a UPC in North America. Those codes are standardised by the GS1 worldwide organisation. EAN-128 are widely used in logistics to allow data exchange between makers and distributors. Our 1D reader also supports Code 39 and DataBar (RSS).
The two-dimensional barcodes are the future of 1D as they allow containing more information and thus giving the possibility to identify each item uniquely or to encode a full URL.
