A barcode sticker is a label that contains a series of black and white lines (bars) and spaces representing data in a machine-readable format. These barcodes are used to store and retrieve information quickly and accurately through optical scanning devices, such as barcode scanners or smartphones with built-in cameras.
The information encoded in a barcode sticker can vary depending on the application and the type of barcode used. Common types of barcodes include UPC (Universal Product Code) used for retail products, EAN (European Article Number) codes used internationally, Code 39 and Code 128 used for alphanumeric characters, and QR (Quick Response) codes used for storing larger amounts of data, including URLs, contact information, or product details.
The barcode stickers are widely used in various industries for purposes like product labeling, inventory management, tracking shipments, library cataloging, ticketing, and more. When a barcode scanner scans the barcode sticker, it reads the pattern of black and white bars and decodes the information stored in it, allowing businesses and individuals to access the relevant data quickly and accurately.
