Retail checkout is unforgiving: a scanner that misreads a UPC, chokes on a wrinkled GS1-128 logistics label, or stalls on a loyalty QR code slows every lane in the store. Choosing the right barcode reader means matching the symbologies, platform, and decode reliability that a point-of-sale (POS) terminal actually needs....

Choosing the right deployment platform for a barcode scanning feature — browser, Android app, or desktop — often comes down to accuracy on real-world images. This benchmark runs Dynamsoft Barcode Reader SDK against the same annotated challenging-image dataset on all three platforms (JavaScript/Web, Android/Java, Python/Desktop) using identical scan templates, making...

Evaluating the accuracy of a barcode SDK requires clean, human-verified ground-truth data — but building that dataset by hand is slow and error-prone. Running two independent engines in parallel, comparing their outputs automatically, and letting a developer resolve discrepancies is a far more efficient approach. This tutorial shows how to...

Developers integrating barcode scanning into iOS apps have several viable options — Dynamsoft Barcode Reader (commercial), Google ML Kit (free), Apple Vision (native), and ZXing-CPP (open source) — each with different accuracy, speed, and format coverage characteristics. This article walks through building a SwiftUI benchmark app that runs all four...

Reading barcodes and QR codes on the server side is a common requirement for document processing, inventory systems, and logistics applications. With the Dynamsoft Barcode Reader SDK and ASP.NET MVC 5 on .NET Framework 4.8, you can add accurate, multi-format barcode decoding to a web application in a few focused...

HTML5 is universally supported across all modern browsers — Chrome, Edge, Safari, Firefox, and Opera — on both desktop and mobile, as well as WebView components used in native Android and iOS apps. This cross-platform reach means a single ASP.NET web application can serve all users without maintaining separate native...

QR codes are a critical part of modern applications — from payment systems and ticketing to inventory management and document tracking. As a two-dimensional barcode, a QR code can store significantly more data than a 1D barcode and is decoded from a camera image using image processing algorithms. Choosing the...

QR codes1 are everywhere - URLs, payment flows, ticketing, inventory labels, patient wristbands. Building a browser-based QR code scanner means users get instant scanning capability on any device without downloading an app. This guide shows how to build one using the Dynamsoft Barcode Reader JavaScript SDK v11, which runs entirely...
