Barcode Types:1D & 2D Barcodes for Retail, Healthcare, Grocery & More

Regarding the types of barcodes, all barcodes can be divided into one-dimensional barcodes and two-dimensional barcodes. The classification is based on how it is presented. A barcode is essentially a method of representing data in a visual, machine-readable form. One-dimensional or one-dimensional barcodes are represented by black and white parallel lines. Hence, they are also called linear barcodes. On the other hand, 2D barcodes are made up of hexagons, dots, and rectangles. Reading 1D and 2D barcodes requires a dedicated optical scanner, also called a barcode scanner or barcode reader. Today, a smartphone can also be turned into a barcode scanner by installing dedicated barcode scanning apps. Or you can use the online barcode scanner on your laptop or tablet to scan various types of barcodes.
