2D Barcodes are read by camera technologies to take a snapshot of the barcode, then process and interpret the symbology type, and translate the data. The data is typically delivered in the ASCII character range, ex: it translated(A, B, C and special characters), through a keyboard type interface, mainly USB Keyboard style. Most 2D devices can take a snap shot like a camera, if the software allows for that delivery capability. Obviously, encryption is used on some 2D devices where sensitive data is used and is somewhat effective.

Incorrect hospital barcode labeling in the lab can have dire consequences. What happens when a lab specimen label contains incorrect information? According to the study by the College of American Pathologists, over 160,000 adverse events in U.S. hospitals occur annually because of sample identification errors. When it comes to the health of our loved ones and us, such numbers are concerning.

This is our new blog setup to be a full featured site to review and demo barcode equipment. Our main site of A1 Barcode Systems is located at aonebar.com. Drupal is the choosen site for this blog after using Wordpress for a year or so. This will be slow to develop but might become our main site too.
