"2D barcodes" are two-dimensional barcodes that, unlike conventional linear barcodes (1D barcodes), can store information both vertically and horizontally. They are capable of encoding a much larger amount of data and therefore offer various application possibilities in areas such as logistics, retail, healthcare, and more.
Typical functions of software in the 2D barcode domain include:
Barcode Generation: The software enables the generation of 2D barcodes from various data sources such as text, numbers, URLs, contact information, etc.
Barcode Customization: The software offers features for customizing 2D barcodes in terms of size, colors, formats, and other visual properties.
Reading and Decoding: The software is capable of reading 2D barcodes and decoding the data encoded within them, either through the use of specialized barcode scanners or by integrating image recognition algorithms.
Printing and Exporting: The software allows for preparing 2D barcodes for printing on labels, documents, products, etc., and exporting them in various formats.
