AIM releases Chinese 2-D bar code
AIM, a trade association for automatic identification and mobility industry, this week announced the availability of Han Xin bar code for the Chinese market.
Han Xin code is a two-dimensional matrix symbology made up of an array of square modules arranged in an overall square pattern. Unique finder patterns assist in easy location of its position, size and inclination.
There are 84 versions of Han Xin code symbols. Module dimension is user-specified to enable production of two-dimensional bar codes by a wide variety of techniques, AIM said.
The Han Xin code has undergone a rigorous review process by AIM’s Technical Symbology Committee (TSC) to ensure it provides benefits to the users and that it is robust from both a printing and reading perspective.
“This symbology has already been deployed in a variety of applications within China and this standard will help vendors and end users adopt it for additional applications with confidence,” said Chuck Evanhoe, AIM board chairman. “China is a vital and vibrant market for bar code technology and the development of this symbology specification is a key for future global growth in the region.”
