Here’s a cool little app that adds another level of functionality to the Apple iPhone. This one’s called ZXing – that’s pronounced “Zebra Crossing”, by the way – and it lets you turn your iPhone into a handy barcode reader.
ZXing uses the iPhone’s built-in camera to decode both 1D and 2D barcodes. It doesn’t need to communicate with a server and generally takes about 1 to 2 seconds to process an image. As with any barcode reader, image quality plays a big role in decoding information, so focus issues and motion blur could cause some trouble when using this app.
This app supports the following formats:
- UPC-A and UPC-E
- EAN-8 and EAN-13
- Code 39
- Code 128
- QR Code
You can find out more about ZXing at the Source link. You can also check out this app on the iTunes App Store.
