A charge-coupled device (CCD), sometimes referred to as an LED scanner, uses a semiconductor and built-in light to convert light into electrical signals. The scanner has hundreds of tiny LEDs arranged in a row, which it shoots directly at a barcode, measuring the voltage of the ambient lig...
However, the main difference between these two types of barcodes is the kind of barcode scanner needed to read them. Traditional 1D barcodes, also known as linear barcodes, often use laser or charge-coupled device (CCD) scanners. Newer 2D barcodes often use imaging scanners for data capture...
