The Black Ice DataMatrix Barcode
Reading SDK/ActiveX toolkit is a robust and efficient library 2D
DataMatrix barcoding
functions, such as reading/decoding, searching barcodes,
and detecting barcode orientation. DataMatrix barcodes can store large amounts of data in a small symbol,
up to a maximum 3,116 Digits or 2,335 ASCII characters. Unlike
linear (1D) barcodes, which are typically used to store a record or
account number which then must be retrieved from a database in order
to get additional information, DataMatrix barcode symbols can
typically store all of the information associated with a particular
record. This way, using DataMatrix barcodes, developers can
eliminate database information retrieval, and can simply read all
account details from the DataMatrix barcode symbol itself.
