Composite Symbology

The International Symbology Specification was developed by AIM, Inc., the worldwide trade association for manufacturers and providers of automatic identification and data collection (AIDC), products, services and supplies.

Composite Symbology, which incorporates a linear component with a two-dimensional composite component, helps address supply chain applications not being met currently. It will allow for the co-existence of symbologies already being used and can be supported by both laser - and imaging based scanning equipemnt. By using a linear component as a finder pattern for the 2D composite component, scanning performance can be enhanced.
