Cloud-Based Warehouse Management Software
Invention of Barcoding System, and how its
evolution through
Smartphone-QR Coding System
helps the overall Warehouse Management Process!

Invention of Barcoding System
1948
Everything got started through a small food
vendor who realized how difficult it was to keep
a track of all his inventories and their prices
And, he decided to find an effective solution to
this problem

He got in touch with the Drexel Institute of
Technology to work out a feasible answer to the
problem 
4
Bernard Silver from the institute accepted the
challenge and started investigating the problem
5
He just started working to find out an effective
solution to keep record of the items being
sold. He, along with some of his students
realized that the answer belongs to something in
ultraviolet rays, scanner and ink
Norman Joseph Woodland, one of the students,
came up with an idea of using ultraviolet
sensitive ink
6
And the team brought a working prototype only to
realize that it must be too expensive and not
very stable for printing.
And, all of them decided to stop processing the
same.

Except One!
Norman Joseph Woodland
Woodland just decided to stand at the same
thought and believed that it is a workable idea
8
So, he made a full-stop on his days at the
Institute, and decided to concentrate on the
barcode solution
9
By October of 1949, both Bernard Silver and
Woodland got into a patent application
10
They, later came up with an idea of Morse Code
on a paper. But, instead of using dots and
dashes, they extended them and brought a series
of broad and thin lines
11
They again developed a device to scan the broad
and lines
And, that made an entry of Barcoding scanning
concept
12
Just a thought from a small food store owner has
brought a new era into the business world
Everything got faster
13
Introduction of Barcodes into business have
brought a great set of improvements in data
processing, especially on large scale industries
14
And, when this Barcode system is replaced with QR
code along with Smartphone scanning aspect, the
efficiency become even boosted
15
How QR Code system could be better than Barcodes
Barcode system stores the data only in
'horizontal' direction. But, when it comes to QR
Codes, it stores the data in both 'horizontal'
and 'vertical' directions.

Advantages of QR Codes

• QR code system is versatile
• This can encode different types of data, for
  example, alphabets, numeric, special, binary
  etc.
• Quick processing
• This is extremely faster than other techniques
• Tolerance is even better
• Even though some of the codes are damaged in one
  QR code, the information might still be
  available to decode
• Storage capacity of information
• This has more capacity to store information than
  barcodes
