  EAN 13
  The EAN 13 (European Article Numbering 13 digits) are bar codes used worldwide on all consumer products (sometimes EAN 8 is used for small sized objects)..
  
  
  • The first two to three digits are defining the country of origin of the product or a class of standardized products,
    
  • 4 or 5 following digits are the code number of the company participating in the EAN system,
    
  • 5 following are the item number of the so marked product,
    
  • 13th is a check digit calculated according to the preceding twelve.
    
    
  
  
  
  
  
  QR CODE
  The QR code is a 2D barcode (matrix code) that can store up to 7089 digits, 4296 alphanumeric characters (unlike the usual 1D barcode which can only store 10 or 13 characters) or 2953 bytes. Advantageously, it can store lots of information while being small and fast scanning. Thus, the "QR" abbreviation is derived from "Quick Response" because the content can be decoded quickly.
  
  The QR Code was created by Japanese company Denso-Wave in 1994. The QR code is widely used in Japan, where it is the most popular 2D tag.
  The Japanese standard for QR Codes, JIS X 0510, was published in 1999, and the corresponding ISO standard, ISO / IEC 18004, was approved in June 2000.
  The use of QR code is free of fees.
  
  
  
  
  DATAMATRIX
  The DataMatrix is a high density 2D symbology barcode, allowing storage of an important amount of information on a small area : up to 2 335 alphanumeric characters or 3 116 numeric 3, on about 1 sq. cm. The DataMatrix code is in the public domain, meaning that it can be used in any application without royalties. It meets ISO iec16022.
