Mobile Tags: From Paper to your Mobile
Finally the Netzguide Business Communication 2007 is out. I wrote an article about mobile tags in the annual publication. I try to show why we need ISO standard 2D barcodes (QR Code, Datamatrix) in the current european barcode babel and what the future will bring.

I also wanted to thank Thomas Bertrand from La Rivière aux Canards for his kind help with the QR code photo.

Datamatrix and QR codes will definitely become the ISO standard 2D codes. But what about the other open standard, Aztec?

Reading an Aztec code is orientation-independent, meaning there is no left/right or top/bottom. The other advantage to Aztec codes is that they do not require white space surrounding the code. This makes reading of the codes and placing them in applications or in print very efficient. When an Aztec code is read, it is read in layers from the inside out. Important or critical data can be stored near the center to reduce the loss of data and errors. Aztec codes also incorporate a much more sophisticated form of error correction making them an excellent choice for print materials. The codes are more resistant to errors experienced by wrinkled paper, or even stained paper.
