Assume you apply barcode technology to the logistics conveyor belt for scanning parcels. A problem you may face is how to recognize barcodes from blurred images. Although we can use advanced algorithms to deal with this complicated case, we’d better improve the image quality ...
-
Building Android camera apps is much more complicated than building iOS camera apps due to the different vendors and hardware specs. Since from API level 21, the old Camera class was deprecated and a brand-new Camera2 class was born. In this post, I want to use the least code ...
-
Some developers used JNA to call native C/C++ interfaces of Dynamsoft Barcode Reader in Java program. The app ran slowly and sometimes crashed. Based on the use case, I created a simple project for building JNA and JNI on Windows. The sample does not only show how to invoke n ...
-
The article is not about how to create Java native methods invoking C/C++ APIs. It aims to help developers to build a jar package containing JNI shared library, made with Dynamsoft Barcode Reader, for Windows, Linux, and macOS from scratch. I will demonstrate how to create JN ...
