The ubiquitous bar code (UBC), developed more than twenty years ago, is not a stagnant product. On the
contrary, the technology has been improved so that it can be used more efficiently. Much less expensive than a computer chip, the bar code can hold more information than it has in the past by adding a second dimension to the structure. The bar code consists of two different widths, although sometimes four-width are used, printed in black on a white background. Bar codes are used for entering data into a computer system. The bars represent the binary digits 0 and 1, just like basic computer language, and sequences of these digits can indicate the numbers from 0 to 9, which can then be read by an optical laser scanner and processed by a digital computer. And then Arabic numbers appear below the code.
