Bar coding has been part of the technology infrastructure of business for many years. While the technology is not new, uses for bar coding keep expanding from what has become traditional applications - inventory management, retail check out - to new, diverse applications where bar coding technology is only beginning to become relevant. New applications exist in many industries, such as healthcare, ticketing and apparel. There are also new applications in industries that have used bar coding technology for many years.
