Speed Tough Barcodes Reading Rate

Barcode Scanning at a Speed of 500+ per Minute

Dynamsoft's barcode scanning SDK is the best in the industry. It can easily handle various scenarios, including:

Scanning video streams on mobile phones
Scanning static images from high-resolution industrial cameras
Scanning large images and PDF files in an automated desktop service

Dynamsoft Barcode Reader SDK also has a leading edge on reading multiple or dozens of barcodes at once. This can greatly boost efficiency, especially when it comes to industrial manufacturing and inventory management where speed is important.

Scan Unreadable Barcodes and QR Codes

Dynamsoft's enterprise-grade barcode reader SDK is a robust solution for decoding the most challenging barcodes. It can easily handle various tough codes that are:

Curved
Tiny
Marked Up
Angled
With Glare
Wrinkled
In Shadow
Incomplete
Dense
In Low Light

With customized scanning parameters, application developers can read damaged barcodes easily, significantly improving barcode recognition accuracy and decoding rate. Manual human reviews can be eliminated to cut costs and streamline processes.

QR Code Reading Rate Benchmark Comparison

Dynamsoft Barcode Reader is a robust and reliable QR Code SDK. With an enterprise-grade barcode detection algorithm, OCR capabilities, and the addition of camera enhancing functionality, it is much more accurate and recognizes more QR Codes than the industry's 2nd best.

We wrote the barcode tool in C++ and used examples provided by the Dynamsoft team, which were very helpful. As a result, we now have a high-quality SDK integrated in our application to easily scan barcodes. We’re very happy with the SDK and help received from Dynamsoft.

– Martin Held, German Red Cross

Dynamsoft DBR exceeded our expectations. With our previous solution, sometimes the image quality was not good enough, and therefore we missed a lot barcodes. Given our volume, that is significant. So using Dynamsoft means we bring our system from 90% scan rate to 100%. It also finds less false positives.

— Jorian Kalse, Lead Product Manager – TicketSwap

We opted for a technology partnership with Dynamsoft for their barcode reader SDK and we quickly realized many technical and business advantages. Dynamsoft’s SDK allowed us to implement barcode technology within a week’s time. Had we opted to try and do it ourselves it could have taken nearly a year. Dynamsoft’s SDK not only helped provide the robust software we wanted to develop, it also saved us extensively in development time and money.
