Gaming:
The “Barcode Battler” released in 1991 is an
actual video game that uses barcodes labels to create characters and
wage battles.
Infant Protection:
A barcode label is now the first “accessory” that most infants ever wear
in their lives. In the maternity ward, barcode labels with
identification information are printed on blank labels and attached to
the mother’s wrist and the infant’s ankle. The infant is not
permitted to leave the maternity ward without verifying the identity of
the mother.
Travel & Leisure:
90% of US airlines use direct thermal barcode label technology to print
barcode labels on traditional and e-tickets, boarding passes and luggage
tags. Just imagine, without streamlined barcode labels and
technology, even MORE bags would turn up missing!
