The QR code system was invented in 1994, at the Denso Wave automotive products company, in Japan. [5] [6] [7] The initial alternating-square design presented by the team of researchers, headed by Masahiro Hara, was influenced by the black counters and the white counters played on a Go board; [8] the pattern of position detection was found and determined by applying the least-used ratio (1:1:3 ...
The Reed–Solomon code is actually a family of codes, where every code is characterised by three parameters: an alphabet size , a block length, and a message length, with <. The set of alphabet symbols is interpreted as the finite field F {\displaystyle F} of order q {\displaystyle q} , and thus, q {\displaystyle q} must be a prime power .
PDF417 is a stacked linear barcode format used in a variety of applications such as transport, identification cards, and inventory management. "PDF" stands for Portable Data File. The "417" signifies that each pattern in the code consists of 4 bars and spaces in a pattern that is 17 units (modules) long.
Near-field communication ( NFC) is a set of communication protocols that enables communication between two electronic devices over a distance of 4 centimetres (1.6 in) or less. [ 1] NFC offers a low-speed connection through a simple setup that can be used for the bootstrapping of capable wireless connections. [ 2]
IMEI number - an example. The International Mobile Equipment Identity ( IMEI) [ 1] is a numeric identifier, usually unique, [ 2][ 3] for 3GPP and iDEN mobile phones, as well as some satellite phones. It is usually found printed inside the battery compartment of the phone but can also be displayed on-screen on most phones by entering the MMI ...
The Code 39 specification defines 43 characters, consisting of uppercase letters (A through Z), numeric digits (0 through 9) and a number of special characters (-, ., $, /, +, %, and space ). An additional character (denoted '*') is used for both start and stop delimiters. Each character is composed of nine elements: five bars and four spaces.
A Swiss postal barcode encoding "RI 476 394 652 CH" in Code 128 (B & C) Code 128 is a high-density linear barcode symbology defined in ISO/IEC 15417:2007. [ 1] It is used for alphanumeric or numeric-only barcodes. It can encode all 128 characters of ASCII and, by use of an extension symbol (FNC4), the Latin-1 characters defined in ISO/IEC 8859 ...
A common size for cells inside cordless tool battery packs. This size is also used in radio-controlled scale vehicle battery packs and some Soviet multimeters. 1 ⁄ 2-, 4 ⁄ 5 - and 5 ⁄ 4-sub-C sizes (differing in length) are also available. Soviet 332 type can be replaced with R10 (#4, 927, BF, U8) or 1.5 V elements from 3 V 2xLR10 packs.
