Revolutionizing Barcode Scanning: How Dynamsoft's Batch Barcode Scanner is Changing the Game for Industrial Applications
In industries like warehouse management, inventory audits, and logistics operations, barcode scanning is the heartbeat of efficiency. But traditional scanners are slow, labor-intensive, and limited — each barcode must be scanned individually, often requiring perfect alignment and manual handling.
Dynamsoft’s Batch Barcode Scanner SDK changes the equation entirely. By combining cutting-edge AR tracking with advanced decoding algorithms, Batch Barcode Scanner enables real-time tracking of multiple barcodes, stitching results into a single panoramic image.
This is not just an upgrade. It’s a paradigm shift.

See How Batch Barcode Scanner Transforms Industrial Barcode Scanning
To truly appreciate the power of Batch Barcode Scanner, you have to see it. In this short demo video, you’ll watch how:
- Multiple barcodes are detected in real time.
- ARKit spatial tracking keeps each barcode locked in place.
- Results are stitched into a complete panoramic barcode map within seconds.

Now, you understand why warehouses, factories, and logistics hubs are calling Batch Barcode Scanner a true game-changer.
The Core Technology Behind Batch Barcode Scanner
Batch Barcode Scanner is powered by two key technologies:
- Dynamsoft Barcode Reader for fast barcode decoding
- iOS ARKit for precise, real-time spatial tracking
How it works:
- AR Spatial Awareness
- When scanning starts, the AR camera defines a world coordinate system. Every captured frame carries both camera position (T) and camera intrinsics (K), pinpointing its location in 3D space.
- Barcode Detection & Positioning
- Each frame is processed by Dynamsoft Barcode Reader for instant barcode decoding. The barcode’s 3D coordinates in the AR space are calculated from K and T.
- Tracking Nodes in 3D Space
- ARKit converts these coordinates into tracking nodes, keeping a persistent lock on each barcode in the scene.
The result? Real-time tracking of every barcode in view, regardless of motion or scanning angle.
The Game-Changing Panorama Stitching
In traditional barcode scanning, stitching images requires overlapping regions — no overlap means no stitch.
Batch Barcode Scanner breaks this rule.
Because each image has precise K and T data, the algorithm knows exactly where it is in 3D space. This allows it to stitch barcode results into a panoramic “barcode map*, even when the images don’t share a single pixel in common.
For large-scale inventory checks or warehouse aisles, this is revolutionary. Operators can sweep their devices across shelves, and Batch Barcode Scanner instantly produces a complete, stitched barcode panorama — dramatically reducing scanning time and labor costs.
Why ARKit and LiDAR Make It Even Better
While Batch Barcode Scanner works on any iPhone 6s or newer, Dynamsoft recommends iPhone 12 and later for peak performance.
Devices with LiDAR bring the experience to another level:
- Faster first-frame tracking
- Accurate multi-plane barcode detection
- Enhanced performance in complex environments
Recommended Devices:
- iPhone 12 Pro and newer
- Latest iPad Pro models
Industrial Impact: From Hours to Minutes
With Batch Barcode Scanner, industries can now:
- Scan hundreds of barcodes in seconds
- Reduce manual scanning labor by up to 90%
- Create a single, unified barcode map for entire shelves or pallets
- Improve accuracy and reduce missed scans
For warehouse managers, logistics coordinators, and inventory managers, this means real-time operational visibility with minimal disruption.
Conclusion: The Future of Barcode Scanning Is Here
By merging computer vision, AR spatial mapping, and mass-barcode decoding, Batch Barcode Scanner transforms scanning from a tedious, repetitive task into a swift, intelligent, and panoramic experience.
Whether you’re managing thousands of SKUs in a warehouse, tracking assets in a factory, or conducting large-scale inventory checks, Batch Barcode Scanner doesn’t just keep up — it sets a new standard.
The industry has been scanning barcodes the same way for decades. It’s time to change that.
