The Origins of Coding Technology

The origins of barcode labels are rooted in the need to make the retail industry and commercialism more efficient and accountable. Coding technology began 67 years ago in America when the son of a grocery wholesaler in Massachusetts proposed a punch card system that would dispense products bought to customers – the first steps towards an automated checkout. Modern day barcode labels however date back to 1949 when Norman Joseph Woodland at the Drexel Institute of Technology began research into capturing product information. He devised a code that would work in the same way Morse Code worked, using dots and lines to create a visual Morse Code. Barcode lables are now used in every conceivable sector and industry, including retail. Asset tracking is integral to many business operations that need to account and track papers, goods or products.
