An Advanced Approach for Barcode Modulation Using High Capacity 2D Barcode Technique

Barcoding techniques have boosted a lot in these recent days by making innovative techniques of barcoding larger data into smaller spaces and encode the data into a small barcode for making it readable over handheld devices such as barcode scanners and scanning machines. Using the traditional barcoding techniques requires a predefined barcode fonts and barcode scanning hardwares, which is the major drawback of the traditional system. The proposed system designs a novel barcode generation and barcoding reading technique without a need of hardware scanner and no additional hardware for interface between barcode generating and reading devices. The barcode generation of higher capacity is proposed using a new hashing technique, not used previously before in barcoding systems, for reducing the space required for storing the data in barcodes. In this paper, HC2D barcode i. e. High capacity 2D barcode technique for large capacity of barcodes is proposed considering the current market trend of android devices and need of large data encoding and secure transmission of data with less transmission overheads. Thus the proposed system designs novel HC2D barcode generation and reading technique along with secure and efficient barcode transmission technique to ensure the data security.
