The paper provides an overview of some latest bar code technology, which involves the insertion of a small RFID (radio-frequency identification) tag. This beneath the skin to enable individuals to carry personal identification information or other data with them at all times. In particular, the paper considers the potential benefits and risks associated with the use of bar code implants for medical purposes, such as patient identification, monitoring and tracking of medical treatments, and emergency responses. Because of the importance of maintaining track of all products in one location, barcodes have become important elements of sales and product services. This Paper explores the different bar code technologies and applications used in segments of the retail grocery as well as consumer goods industries. It will examine the history and development of barcode technology, including the various applications it has been proposed for, and the ethical and legal considerations that arise from its use. Further, focus on the potential benefits and risks associated with bar code implants in the medical context used for patient identification, tracking of medical treatments, and emergency response. Authors also performed a comparative study on some characteristics like technology used, advantages in industry or market and also mention the future recommendation.
