Inventors Hall of Fame Inducts Fathers of Barcode

noreply@blogger.com (Sachith) — Thu, 17 Mar 2011 09:34:29 PDT

Share The pair of Drexel grads who are in large part responsible for the birth of the barcode industry receive recognition for this formidable invention, over half a century later. Bernard Silver and N. Joseph Woodland, inventors of the first optically scanned barcode, are 2011 inductees into the National Inventors Hall of Fame™.

The National Inventors Hall of Fame™ honors the legendary men and women whose innovations and entrepreneurial endeavors have changed the world. Founded in 1973 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the National Council of Intellectual Property Law Association, with its 2011 Induction the Hall of Fame will have 460 Inductees. The National Inventors Hall of Fame and Museum is located in the atrium of the Madison Building on the campus of the United States Patent and Trademark Office in Alexandria, VA.

The National Inventors Hall of Fame annually accepts nominations for men and women whose work has changed society and improved the quality of life. The candidate's invention must be covered by a United States patent, and the work must have had a major impact on society, the public welfare, and the progress of science and the useful arts.

Silver and Woodland began working on the barcode in 1948 after Silver overheard a food chain executive asking a Drexel dean to research the possibility of automatically capturing product information at checkout.

After an initial attempt consisting of a pair of lines and circles based on Morse Code, the pair's collaboration resulted in the creation of a shape of concentric circles, or what became known as the “bulls eye” symbol, which became the first code to be scanned. Some sources claim that the idea came to Woodland on a Florida beach near his grandfather's apartment, where he lived after quitting his teaching job to work on the barcode project. It is said that while considering the problem, he began to draw lines and dashes in the sand, similar to the Morse Code, then pulling the symbols downward with his fingers, inspired the idea of a 2D Morse Code, which would go on to become the "bulls eye" symbol. In 1951, Silver and Woodland built an actual barcode reader which could read the code electronically. This same year, Woodlands took a job at IBM, in hopes that their idea would be further developed. In October1952, three years after submitting the application, Woodland and Silver received US Patent 2,612,994 ("Classifying Apparatus and Method"). In 1973, 10 years after Silver's death, a rectangular barcode promoted by IBM, after substantial design input by Woodland, was formally adopted as the Universal Product Code (UPC).

Of course, today we enjoy the myriad applications of the barcode; tracking shipped packages, boarding passes and luggage routing for air travel, tickets for entertainment events, store registries, patient identification in hospitals, floor control in warehouses to name only a few. The GS1 US estimates that five billion scans take place worldwide every day.

Some of the other 2011 inductees into the Inventor's Hall of Fame include, George Devol, the man responsible for the first digitally operated programmable robotic arm; Diffie, Hellman and Markle, the triad that gave the world public key cryptography (PKC), a radically new method for securing electronic communications, thereby securing the internet; Eric Fossum, who developed CMOS Active Pixel Image Sensor, the reason we have cameras in our phones; and Steve Sasson, the inventor credited with the invention of the digital camera. A number of inventors will also be honored posthumously, included are the inventors of the windshield wiper, quartz clock, loading coil, margarine, and cash register.

"We're pleased to present such a stellar group of 2011 Inductees," said Edward Gray, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the National Inventors Hall of Fame, "We hope that their accomplishments remind us of the great innovation in America's past and the importance to America of continued innovation today."

The 2011 induction, sponsored in part by the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the Kauffman Foundation, will take place on May 4 at the historic Patent Office Building, now the Smithsonian American Art Museum and the National Portrait Gallery, in Washington, D.C. The location is particularly relevant this year because the 2011 class of inductees includes a group of 29 historical inventors who will be recognized posthumously, most of whom would have submitted patent applications to the very same building in which they will be honored.

Did you know the first product to use/have a barcode was a packet of Wrigley's chewing Gum

noreply@blogger.com (Sachith) — Thu, 17 Mar 2011 09:32:06 PDT

What is bar code? It is method of automatic identification and data collection. The first patent for a bar code type product (US Patent #2,612,994) was issued to inventors Joseph Woodland and Bernard Silver on October 7, 1952. The Woodland and Silver bar code can be described as a "bull's eye" symbol, made up of a series of concentric circles.

Examine the 1958 patent drawing to the left that depicts the Woodland's and Silver's bar code label and the 1958 patent drawing below right of the inventors' bar code scanner technology. The photo below left is an example of today's U.P.C. bar code on a product package.

In 1948, Bernard Silver was a graduate student at Drexel Institute of Technology in Philadelphia. A local food chain store owner had made an inquiry to the Drexel Institute asking about research into a method of automatically reading product information during checkout. Bernard Silver joined together with fellow graduate student Norman Joseph Woodland to work on a solution.

Woodland's first idea was to use ultraviolet light sensitive ink. The team built a working prototype but decided that the system was too unstable and expensive. They went back to the drawing board.

On October 20, 1949, Woodland and Silver filed their patent application for the "Classifying Apparatus and Method", describing their invention as "article classification...through the medium of identifying patterns".

Bar code was first used commercially in 1966, however, it was soon realized that there would have to be some sort of industry standard set. By 1970, the Universal Grocery Products Identification Code or UGPIC was written by a company called Logicon Inc. The first company to produce bar code equipment for retail trade use (using UGPIC) was the American company Monarch Marking in 1970, and for industrial use, the British company Plessey Telecommunications was also first in 1970. UGPIC evolved into the U.P.C. symbol set or Universal Product Code, which is still used in the United States. George J. Laurer is considered the inventor of U.P.C. or Uniform Product Code, which was invented in 1973.

In June of 1974, the first U.P.C. scanner was installed at a Marsh's supermarket in Troy, Ohio. The first product to have a bar code included was a packet of Wrigley's Gum.

Beginning with 1932, when an ambitious project was conducted by a small group of students headed by Wallace Flint at the Harvard University Graduate School of Business Administration. The project proposed that customers select desired merchandise from a catalog by removing corresponding punched cards from the catalog.

Intermec is pleased to announce the immediate availability of the PF8t Thermal Transfer printer with 12.7 mm (0.5 inch) ribbon core option which will allow our customers and partners to continue to use the same high quality media and ribbons that they have used with the PC4 desktop printers. The new printers will also allow easy migration from competitor’s desktop printers with 0.5 inch ribbon core and EPL printer language.

PF8t is now available with either 12.7 mm (0.5 inch) ribbon core or 25.4 mm (1.0 inch) core Thermal Transfer in addition to the PF8d Direct Thermal version. Please note: It is not possible to modify current PF8t printers with the 25.4 mm (1.0 inch) core to a 12.7 mm (0.5 inch) core. This is a factory built option only.

PF8t is a compact, sturdy, quiet printer, ideal for healthcare, government, office, or retail environments printing less than two rolls of labels per day. Typical applications include Office shipping, asset and file labels, Manufacturing or Retail product labels, Retail shelf labeling, and Healthcare file, patient record, laboratory and specimen labeling.

The low price combined with a competitive feature set make PF8 the best value in a desktop printer.

Features include:

Compact desktop printers for applications where space is limited
Connect to Print™ for easy set up
High throughput with print speeds up to 4 inches per second
Choice of 203 or 300 dpi print resolution
Longest ribbon length in a desktop printer for the 25.4 mm (1.0 inch) core, with a capacity of 274 m. The 12.7 mm (0.5 inch) core version has a 100 m ribbon length.
USB v.2.0 interface, RS232 and Centronics/Parallel come standard
More memory for faster printing of logos, pictures, or long labels (32 bit processor versus 16 bit processor in the PC4). The PF8t Flash memory can also be expanded up to 1 GB with an optional Compact Flash card slot module that includes a real time clock (RTC) to time stamp labels when printed for perishable items or time sensitive products.
