Barcode Reader Source Code Available Soon

July 17th, 2007 [ Posted by admin ]

After receiving several interested comments related to the source of the barcode reader I created for the developer comp. last year, I had a chat with the powers that be here and we decided that the best option for all folks involved would be to opensource the code.

I have to tidy up the code to make it presentable and compatible with Flex 2.01 but expect another announcement in the near future.

    Has there been any updates on releasing this code? I noticed the blog hasn’t been updated in a while, I was really looking forward to seeing this released. If there’s a way to get the code directly, or discuss projects involving it, I’d be happy to talk to you directly.

    Hi Guys,
    Firstly sorry for the delay in responding but we had a demo to get ready for the Adobe AIR launch here in Oz and I was flat out for a couple of weeks (there’ll be a post regarding what we did shortly). You’ll be pleased to know that I am now working on getting the code tidied up and will have it released in some form ASAP. Sorry this has taken so long, but fortunately for us we’ve been really busy.

    Mike.

    does the scanner work on fixed focus webcams like the ones in macbooks?

    Peter,
    It depends on the quality and size of the image produced. Generally I would say no but if you are using larger than standard barcodes of course that will make it more likely.

    Mike.

    Hey Mike any progress with this? I was looking into doing something similar with QR Codes, so if it is opensource maybe I can slot an extra barcode type in.

    Cheers.
    Pete
