    Appendix D Glossary This glossary focuses on terms related to QR Codes and Data Matrix codes which are matrix-type 2-dimensional codes. There may be some parts of this glossary that do not apply to other types of 2-dimensional codes. Data Matrix Data Matrix codes were developed by I.D.
  • Page 198 Appendix D Glossary Pixel Pixels are the points that make up images. The monitor screen is 512 pixels high and 484 pixels wide which means that the screen contains approximately 250,000 pixels. Adjust the field of vision so that the number of pixels per cell is at least 5. The number of pixels per cell can be measured in Image Analysis/Measure Length.
  • Page 199 Appendix D Glossary Cell These squares are the units that make up matrix-type 2-dimensional codes. Whether these cells are black or white determines the information carried by the code. Timing Pattern These patterns are used to determine symbol density and horizontal and vertical dimen- sions and thereby obtain a frame of reference for 2-dimensional codes.
  • Page 200 Appendix D Glossary Resolution The resolution is a measure of the detail with which images are displayed. The V530- C300E can display images (via a monitor) using approximately 250,000 pixels (512 ™ 484). This means that if the field of vision is 512 mm ™ 484 mm, the resolution will be 1 (mm/pixel).
