Small-scale took to promote its standard two-dimensional bar code, called HCCB (High Capacity Color Barcode). This is a color bar code, which in theory should be more compact than QR Code. However, how to use it in black-and-white printing remains unclear.

The reader for HCCB can be downloaded from the mobile site gettag.mobi (Windows Mobile, J2ME, Blackberry and Symbian S60) or from iTunes, for iPhone, called Tag Reader .

HCCB is a closed standard and is promoted under the Microsoft Tag label, exclusively for creating mobile tags. On Microsoft Tag, you can generate your barcode, but the data will be stored on the website, and only the identifier in the barcode itself.
