Method of measuring length using new barcode symbology

A method of decoding a barcode structure, wherein said barcode structure comprises a plurality of ordered rows of barcode information, further each of said plurality of rows contains a plurality of data elements, a plurality of sub data elements, a plurality of break lines, at least one start element and at least one stop data element, said method compromising of

• Scanning said barcode structure at any location within said barcode structure;
• Identifying said plurality of break lines from said scanned data;
• Removing lead & trail data based on said identified break lines;
• Extracting data elements from said scanned data;
• Converting said extracted data elements into binary format;
• and
• Converting said binary format into a numeric scale unit.

A decoder for decoding a barcode structure, wherein said barcode structure comprises a plurality of ordered rows of barcode information, further each of said plurality of rows contains a plurality of data elements, a plurality of sub data elements, a plurality of break lines, at least one start element and at least one stop data element, said decoder comprising at least one means configured for

• Receiving scanned data from a scanner, wherein said scanned data is from said scanner scanning said barcode structure at any location within said barcode structure;
• Identifying said plurality of break lines from said scanned data;
• Removing lead & trail data based on said identified break lines;
• Extracting data elements from said scanned data;
• Converting said extracted data elements into binary format;
• and
• Converting said binary format into a numeric scale unit.

A method of decoding a barcode structure, wherein said barcode structure comprises a plurality of ordered rows of barcode information, said method compromising of

• Moving a barcode reader on said barcode structure, wherein slider pins on said barcode reader are in contact with data lines on said barcode structure and electric signals are passing through said data lines;
• Collecting said signals dynamically from said data lines;
• Converting said collected signals into a binary sequence;
• and
• Converting said binary sequence into a scale unit.
