Hi guys today i am going to share with you what is bar code ? Already i was shared about qr code that also a type of bar code.

Bar codes were invented in 1962 to enable automatic tracking of railroad cars. Early in 1970, they were first used on grocery cartons, and a few months later, for automobile components tracking. Widespread adoption of modern bar coding occurred because it was simpler and easier to read than optical character recognition (OCR) technology, and it guaranteed accuracy - the same features now driving the use of bar codes in document imaging.

► Barcodes are mainly use in supermarkets and production companys for the purpose of tracing supply, sales and sales trends of specific items. They are normally used to distinctively identify specific items in supermarkets and companies. This eases checkout since prices and other details can be automatically looked up. It simplifies inventory because when an item is sold and leaves the store, the known quantity of stock decreases.




► To read bar codes a special device is needed called a bar code scanner. It is an hand held device similar to a pricing gun.
