What are 2D Barcodes? |
|
2D Barcodes are graphical symbols that hold a
piece of information. This information can be read by a specialized
machine, namely a 2D Barcode reader. The information is usually textual,
and can be of any length, and can be used for recording information or
act upon it.
For more information go to About mobile
Barcodes page. |

What kind of information can a
mobile barcode hold? |
|
By far the most common used type of
information you will find in a mobile barcode is - a URL. So the textual
information could be 'http:www.something.com", and when your phone
reads that, it will immediately shoot you to see that web site. But this
is not the whole story. A barcode can be printed on your business card
and hold your contact details (like name, phone number, email address).
Moving forward, a mobile barcode can appear on your electricity bill,
with description of your customer number and the amount to be paid. A
barcode can encode a unique coupon that is handed to you so that you can
get a bonus gift or price deduction. |

What smart actions are possible with
a mobile barcode? |
|
Upon reading a contact detail barcode, the
reader can offer you to save this persons contact details into your
phone book, or take immediate action like make a phone call. Similarly,
upon reading a bill detail barcode, the reader can then offer you to pay
your bill online. |
| 4. |
Why does a barcode need a title? |
|
The title is optional, but will help you and
others understand what to expect to see when the code is read. So if
whats inside is the URL of www.google.com, then it makes sense to type
Google below the code. |
| 5. |
How do you choose which type of
barcode to use? |
|
Both standards, QR Code and Data Matrix are
fairly similar so it remains a matter of your personal taste as to which
one to use. |
| 6. |
What is code size and how can you
choose the most fitting one? |
|
The term code size means the size (measured
in pixels in the digital image of the barcode) of the small black and
white squares that made the barcode. In order to allow most people to
read the barcode it is important not to go below one millimeter for
module size (1.5 millimeters is recommended). |
| 7. |
How is it possible to add a barcode
to my own website? |
|
Once the barcode image appears, you can copy
an HTML code to put directly into your HTML page so that it will appear
as a barcode image. |
