What are barcodes?

A barcode represents the graph of a digital data (1D barcode) or alphanumeric (2D barcode) coding. It consists of a sequence of several bars and spaces whose thicknesses vary depending on the type of code. Reading a bar code is a linear laser beam through an optical drive (fixed scanners, PDAs, handhelds, embedded devices ...).

The resulting combination is transcribed in figures on barcode terminals or PCs. This number is the product reference that is especially associated with information such as the origin, the reference type and the producer.
