This is why you need Barcode Scanner

4. Barcode scanners have to be able to
read the black-and-white zebra lines
on products extremely quickly and
feed that information to a Computer.
You can embrace the power of this
unique inventory management
software, and streamline every
operation under a single database.
1. Scanning head shines LED
2. The cell generates a pattern of on-off
pulses that similar to the black and
white stripes.
3. The binary digits are sent to a
computer attached to the scanner,
which detects the code as 11101011.

How does a barcode work?

5. There is no price information encoded in a
bar code. When the scanner at the
checkout line scans a product, the cash
register sends the UPC number to the
store's central POS (point of sale) computer
to look up the UPC number. The computer
sends back the real price of the item at that
moment.
If the price were encoded in the bar code,
prices could never change. On the other
hand, not encoding a fixed price gives the
store an easy way to rip off customers.

Is the price of my item in the barcode?

6. Barcodes representing data in the widths
(lines) and the dividing of parallel lines such
as Code128, Code 39, and UPC, are
referred to as Linear or 1D
(one-dimensional) barcode symbologies.
Linear Barcode
1. Holds under 85 characters (symbology
particular character limit).
2. A majority of customers are set up to
utilize Linear barcodes (Linear
scanner).
3. Creates a wide barcode.

What is a 1D (linear) barcode?

7. Two-dimensional (2D) barcodes, such
as data matrix, PDF417, and QR Code, may
have patterns of squares, dots, hexagons
and other geometric patterns. While
maintaining a fairly small size, these
barcode types hold much more data than
linear barcodes.
2D Barcode:
1. Can hold hundreds of characters.
2. Requires a 2D barcode scanner.
3. With the same data, creates a smaller
barcode than Linear.

What is a 2D barcode?

8. A solid inventory management system can
help you cut down on these scenarios,
making it easier to bill promptly and
accurately. Using barcodes or QR (quick
response) codes gives your business more
flexibility and power than traditional
inventory management ever could.
For scanning there are many codes and
protocols to choose, but we need the one
which is flexible and can be easily scanned
anywhere.
