DATA STRIP AND METHOD FOR CODING AND DECODING PRINTED DATA

摘要

The invention relates to a data strip for storing coded data having a high density. The printed surface of the data strip is divided up into cells and one of at least two different patterns (1, 2) having a characteristic, predefined form is respectively printed in a two dimensional cell having a predefined form. The invention also relates to a method for coding and decoding data on printed supports. Coding occurs in the form of two dimensional cells and cells are positioned at specific points on the support , respectively containing at two different patterns having a characteristic an d predefined form and the inner structure of the cells is used for decoding.
