Jordan Frith, "Barcode" (Bloomsbury, 2023)

Jordan Frith, "Barcode" (Bloomsbury, 2023)
Q: What benefits do barcodes have over more powerful things within their own category?
Barcodes endure because they are simple and have incredibly established infrastructure that is easy to scan, unlike more advanced technologies like RFID which are more complex.
Jordan Frith, "Barcode" (Bloomsbury, 2023)
Q: How do barcodes actually work?
A barcode works on the principle of looking for black ink or white space, where each set of lines represents a number. The scanner translates these patterns into numbers through a binary process.
