GS1 Healthcare Barcode Scanner App is a healthcare Automatic Identification and Data Capture (AIDC) application with the following main purposes:
- Use the Check mode to scan barcodes one by one, validate them against GS1 data format standards and collect information about the product, manufacturer, scanning location, etc. Use it to demonstrate the advantages of GS1 DataMatrix when used in healthcare applications for Automatic Identification and Data Capture (AIDC) marking of trade items.
- In Survey mode the app can be used to measure the prevalence of GS1 bar codes marked on healthcare products. With this function, users are able to gather information about changing trends in bar code use. Barcode symbol data can be collected and statistically analysed. Multiple symbols can be scanned, and information added about location, product type, packaging level, pictures and comments.
- The GS1 Digital Link enables access to digital content by scanning a GS1 barcode. The Digital Link mode is designed to demonstrate how Digital Link works. In Digital Link mode you can scan a GS1 barcode (e.g., attached to a pharmaceutical or medical device) and access one or more pieces of digital information about that item.
