Some varieties of barcode include Linear types, which are a sequence of vertical black bars and white spaces, DataMatrix barcodes that may be printed as a square or rectangular symbol made up of individual dots or squares. Finally, QR codes, which consist of black modules (square dots) arranged in a grid of white background.
