Yes, I learn much better when the audio randomly becomes super loud for less than a second & goes back to normal..Especially learn the best whenever he says anything with a 'b' or a 'p' sound & it explodes a deep thunderous 'puff' sound.
For anyone wondering , this is UPC-A barcode generation algorithm . There are many others , for example "Code 128" barcode generation algorithm is capable of encoding alphanumeric characters from ASCII character set.
I showed a photo of a paint can with a small bar code on it to an employee who scanned the screen and instantly brought up the same product on his phone. I work in a pretty tech industry and it's pretty cool that such a simple design works so well
Easily one of THE most informative videos per minute that I've seen! I learned more about bar codes in four minutes than I did in seventeen years in the grocery biz! Thanks!
Interestingly, I've noticed no one has pointed out that the right side's number codes are just the inverse of the left side's. Example: Left side 1: 0011001 Right side 1: 1100110
I might have missed it, but I think you forgot to mention that the numbers on the right side are inverted to those on the left (0 becomes 1 and vice versa). Zero on left: 0001101; Zero on right 1110010
It's funny, me and my dad were having a conversation about this when I was visiting him, and by chance I saw this video about 40 minutes before he phones, thanks a lot for the upload, this is a great channel.
In the case of the barcode, the binaries are just a standard, not the binary equivalent for the decimal number. To convert a binary number to a decimal number you can use this: For example, converting 10101010 into decimal, 1*2^7+0*2^6+1*2^5+0*2^4+1*2^3+0*2^2+1*2^1+0*2^0 So the binary 10101010 is equivalent to the decimal 170.

Love the way you have explained how barcode works. But how does one know exactly which manufacturer and product has which code? Is there an administered international database that we have to register into? Provided that there is no administered database, can anyone generate their own EAN barcodes for free, with their favorite numbers as manufacturer and product code?
Use Excel data to print bulk barcode labels - In order to improve work efficiency, you can first enter the value of the barcode in Excel, and then import it into our barcode generator software to make barcodes in batches.
QUESTION! ---- I'd really LOVE TO KNOW the extent of what a barcode can tell me --- I work in a warehouse & I've been told that the first 3 numbers tell you the country it was made in (true or not?), you mentioned the first digit showing standard or weighted things; what about 4 through 9? & do you know of a link or any reading material anywhere for me to look through? I've been looking on the web for ages but this video has told me more then all the other research I've done. Thank you!
That is only one of barcode types commonly used around, the EAN-13. Probably it is the most common one in Europe but even there it is not the only one. Americas have their own similar but not identical ways of doing the same thing. And that is only considering simple linear barcodes. Today 2D barcodes start to gain popularity especially in specific cases like airplane tickets and interactive ads. The video just barely scratches the surface of the whole barcode universe.
The people who figured out this complicated system, what planet are they from? Whew! Excellent job with the video but I have to go now as my brain is now full! Best of luck!
BokanProductions To answer the question for anyone curious 2 years later here, the code will continue to be allocated to the product for awhile even after discontinuation ad many stores will still be selling the item for awhile, and many suppliers will still have leftover product for awhile. But in the long run yes it will eventually be recycled.
Life /noun/ 1. The condition that distinguishes animals and plants from inorganic matter, including the capacity for growth, reproduction, functional activity, and continual change preceding death. 2. The period between the birth and death of a living thing. I hope that helps c:
@boombasticLee If you are attempting to calculate a 13th digit, then you are creating a symbology known as EAN13 (looks similar to UPC). In this particular example, UPCa takes 11 digits and produces a 12th (check digit).
[# 6671] Two friends sitting outside a café, watching the pedestrians passing by. A pretty girl appears, her dress with irregular vertical lines... "Oh dear, this fashion now- adays...", the one sighs. The other: "Just scan this pattern with the barcode reading app -- maybe it's her phone number!" ☺
Yep, but a computer does all that idying in a gazillionth of a second, so once the method is programmed with all it's triple security checks, the machine will do it for you at practically no cost and no time...
Especially if you are looking at the much compressed versions that define most of the equations by employing operators such as the gradient, divergence, curl or del operators. Then you have to look all of those up and learn that the bolded letters are actually Vector potentials or Vector fields, and how those function. Then you learn partial derivatives and cross and dot products. By then you will have just scratched the surface. Math, helping the universe confuse us.
The left and right guards only contains three bits "101" and both the left-side and right side code for the number six contain 7-bits, "0101111" and "1010000" respectively. Since "101" is not the same as "0101111" or "1010000" there is no 666. In the UPC code you must have all seven bits for a number to be recognized. Even if you treated "101" as a plain old binary number, it would be a five and not six. FYI, six looks like "110" in plain binary, and 666 would look like "1010011010".
Hi in the 4 digits assigned for manufacturers section,each digit can take the place of (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9)so basically each digit can have 362880 ways to represent that digit value(9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1)so when we have 4 digits the number of ways for manufacturer can be represented as (362880*362880*362880*362880).Hope you get the idea!
How do you make the translation from binary to decimal ? Left side the binary 0011001 is translated as 1, but on the right 1100110 is 1. I can see a logic in that on the right side the 1 becomes 0 and vice versa, but i can't see the further logic. I haven't been searching too much tbh. :)
