Yeah. Me too. Now i know it is invented in Toyoto subsidiary in Japan. They create it so that they can sell their cars more easily. Because barcodes takes too much time.
Video was informative & all, but it didn't really do much to explain why I have no memory or the barcode on the back of my neck... Oh hold on, two gentleman from the government have just showed up to "explain things" to me while we go for a ride in their car with the blacked out windows. Wish me luck!
Last year in my math class we had to make barcodes for different things and I got the "human barcode scanner award" for being the fastest to read a barcode in my class xD
Fantech have a cleaver youtube explanation on using QR codes as a support and information tool for already purchased products. They're such an underrated tool. I don't get why they aren't used more.
The venerable barcode is not going anywhere, its still very useful in the retail space and is basically just a quick way to read a serial number , which itself is often written at the bottom of the barcode just in case the barcode is damaged or unreadable. Also the barcode rarely stores anything more than just a serial number, the rest is stored on a database on a computer. While QR codes are great, they still need more high tech devices, barcode scanners are often cheaper and ubiquitous and very easy to use. Also barcode scanners are moving away from lasers for reading as the lasers could be harmful if pointed at the eyes. Newer models use LEDs and are still pretty accurate.
From Excel data to barcode labels - First enter multiple barcode numbers in Excel, then import them into our barcode generator software to make bulk barcode labels, this way canl great improve the work efficiency.
While UPC is probably the dominant barcode type in the US and Canada, EAN is by far the most common in Europe, with the most common one of those being EAN-13. Also, QR code scanning has become insanely fast, without using the cloud. In my group at university we are working with qr and bar code scanning libraries that don't connect to the cloud, so all the processing is done on the phone. The two limiting factors for all the phones we have tested are camera launch speed and autofocus speed, since the processing itself is instant.
+Christoffer Nørskov Datamatrix is getting more common , also I think code 128 is as common as EAN-13... and thankfully none of that crappy interleaved 2of5
Daemi Ax I have seen datamatrix a couple of places, but often for more specialty purposes, would say QR is still more common for the consumer to see. Don't think i have seen code 128 (or recognized it) anywhere. At least products in the store still use EAN 13 here.
Nah qr codes mess up way more than barcodes in retail. One wrinkle and it's dead. They're also slower to scan. I'm a checkout opporator they drive me and everyone else nuts. Apparently all the other departments like them though >.>
Can you please explain satellite internet? Why is it so slow? Why is the latency so high? Doesn't cabled internet have to go through a satellite? Wouldn't it be slower to go through a wire, then a satellite, then back? It doesn't make sense please explain satellite internet.
Hey guys, kinda out of context, but I'm really going through a dilemma as my PC parts are arriving through the post for my first build. My question is that my motherboard doesn't have a display port but my gpu has, as well as my monitor. Would it work to connect my monitor to my gpu through display port? Or would I need a new motherboard? Help appreciated, thanks
This guy has a future! He should have his own tech tips channel
lemme act like a boomer... "he does have a channed named Linus Tech Tips lol"
I would love to check out more than just his tip though.
when i was little i thought QR codes were a maze

Congratulations 👏👏👏. What type of barcode? UPC or QR Code
@@spanishrose213 Wow I forgot about this - I’m now a junior in college and that was in 8th grade for me lol but it was a UPC barcode

Agree so underrated.
To skip shit, jump: 5:27
Linus, I like your presentation so much better than anything else I've seen on TH-cam. Thank You!!! 🤣🤣
2:15 Franco stamps. nailed it.

Have you ever played hitman? If no, you should look up his character.

Is this free to do?
my mom uses qr codes in her store, she sells fabric, and whrn you scan the qr code, then you get a link to that item on her site.. pretty neat
"Cereal boxes to serial killers" fuck that was good Linus.

Hey Chris do you still dabble in QR codes?
A picture is worth a thousand words...
a video is worth trillions 🌚🎈
+Vip_50Fifty Well actually, this video is worth only 9,810,000 words. 30 FPS * 1000 words per frame * 327 seconds =9,810,000 words

Btw QR CODE is actually invented in Japan for Toyota Cars.

Linus you are my online professor...:) love you!
''Cereal boxes to Serial Killers'' hahahahaha
That line just killed me...
Wow this was 5 years ago
The greatest series for curious people with ADD
Anyone else carefully and painstakingly edit the QR code at 3:42 to make it flat only to find that it didn't work in any QR scanner they tried?
nope, just you
"Found on everything for cereal boxes to serial killers" Best line
A suggestion for the next episode: How to delete internet data properly. For example e-mail accounts, game data and so on.
I was really curious about the suspense in the beginning what was it about ! though I search for how bar codes and QR codes work.
3:18 LoooL, tasty zophobas worm

I loved "from cereal boxes to serial killers" soooooo much
they’re all just serial numbers
@ 0:11 What are the names of those pictures where you stare and you can see the hidden picture?
Linus,
Here are a two video suggestions:
1. Bitcoin Mining
2. Port Forwarding
Fantastic Hitman reference.
Before phone camera got Badass 🔥
🤣🤣
Google Goggles and Now on Tap con now do this to some degree. I recall an old sample tech called Sixth Sense that can do the same
2:11 WTF is a dictator doing in a Techquickie video?
OMG Franco stamps, srsly?
because berkle...look again
+Miguel Jorge Galindo Ramos Tu tambien te has dado cuenta, ¿no?
Yeah Linus, that ended up looking as anything BUT professional
Yo también me he dado cuenta
Who?
"Serial boxes to serial killer" well that took an unexpected turn...
Bar Code:
1) Order a drink
2) Pay for it
3) Consume it
Nah qr codes mess up way more than barcodes in retail. One wrinkle and it's dead. They're also slower to scan. I'm a checkout opporator they drive me and everyone else nuts. Apparently all the other departments like them though >.>
Sample QR code!
from cereal boxes to serial killers... made my day. lol
Ok serial killer with hitman was pretty witty ill give you that
Hahaha 2:14 xD The stamp at the top :D
Look at the subtitles at 4:50, I never knew that an accounting software could be so violent.

The stamps that appears in the minute 2:14 have the image of a spanish dictator, not very appropiate for this vídeo...

There is a QR code etched into my cam shaft. The future has arrived.
Should've also covered Microsoft Tag
or pdf417, datamatrix and aztec. microsoft code looks cool though
Do people still use it? I see fewer instances now.
2:13 nobody noticed those Spanish dictator Francisco Franco stamps? LOL
Wow! Couldn't you use any other postal stamps at 2:12? That guy is Francisco Franco, the spanish dictator.
Oh snap! Almost forgot to watch out for those killer penguins.
When you said serial killers, it said of Siri. Lol
tldr : Agent 47 will soon use QR Code instead of bar code.
freshBooks: Excel for people who don't know it exists
Who pulled out their phone and scanned all the QR codes in the video? I know I did.
I'm watching on my phone 📱
The only good youtuber left and luke xD
The beep kept scaring me
from cereal breakfast to serial killer LOL...
These are amazing...bar none!! 😀
Now I'm just wondering why the stamps the editor chose as an example in 2:15 have Franco in them.
subnetting as quick as possible. the episode will probably take an hour
XD ^horizontal and Vertical!
Could you do an episode on Locked bootloaders please?
...evertything from cereal boxes to serial killers... lmao
I just got an ad about Barcodes from 2D revolution
last time I was this early, I got arrested for breaking into a mall
I was eating a marmite (vegemite) and cheese sandwich while watching this. True story.
Linus is Agent 47 confirmed.
Who is that guy falling at 2:09 ? He's also in your other video O-o
a second there I thought you were talking about Chuck and intersect program
In europe the most common one is the EAN (European Article Number) instead of the UPC (Universal Product Code).
Also in certain areas in Asia, they use a modified EAN symbology.
I use to think that QR code’s were mazes
Could you make an as-fast-as-possible on projectors and prjectorscreens/paint etc.?
my serial killer didnt come with a barcode should i check his authenticity??
hmmm...
I think little NFC tags will replace QR in about 10 years.
Scan the QR code on 2:32
"That's where QR codes, developed in 1994, come in".
MaxiCode: *sad 1992 noises*
I saw a couple dressed as barcodes and I asked if they were a item
damn.
[Fr] J'ai enfin la réponse à ma simple question: Comment les codes barre fonctionnent? Thanks a lot
BTW, why can't phone cameras include a QR code reader? What's up with that?!
i wouldve thought nfc wouldve been the replacemeny
When I looked up how barcodes work, I didn't expect linus but im stoked
Would we ever run out of combinations?
yo what.. lol the marmite bit
Would've been nice to mention it was created by an IBM engineer
