在現代人的生活中,購買商品及管理物料經常利用條碼幫助記錄品項及計算數量。隨著科技的進步,條碼不再只是黑白相間的長條狀排列,更因資訊量的提升,而發展出二維碼,且因應用領域的差異,上述二維碼更可進一步區分成數據矩陣(data matrix)、QR碼、PDF417碼等形式。In the life of modern people, when purchasing goods and managing materials, barcodes are often used to help record items and calculate quantities. With the advancement of science and technology, barcodes are no longer just black and white long strips, but due to the increase in the amount of information, two-dimensional codes have been developed, and due to differences in application fields, the above two-dimensional codes can be further divided into data matrix (data matrix), QR code, PDF417 code, etc.
