How Barcode Scanning Works
Camera Scanning
Your device's camera captures live video. Our scanner analyzes each frame in real-time to detect and decode barcodes. Works best with good lighting and steady hands.
Image Upload
Upload a photo containing a barcode. The scanner will analyze the image and extract any barcodes found. Great for scanning barcodes from screenshots or saved images.
1D Barcodes
Traditional linear barcodes like UPC, EAN, Code 128, and Code 39. Found on retail products, shipping labels, and inventory systems.
2D Barcodes
Matrix codes like QR Code, Data Matrix, and PDF417. Can store more data including URLs, text, and contact information.
