Would be nice if they provided more information about their implementation. I currently pay for a barcode API that doesn't have the dumb binary off/on pixel logic of the free version of zxing almost everyone else uses. It's just better UX for users if their bar codes can be recognized even with out of focus images, for example. There's nothing on this site about if the Google library is better or worse than popular open source offerings, however.

- nly 11y agoLast I looked, Clef, who rely on barcode scanning as the basis for their entire product, were using ZBar[0] on Android. It's a C library. I think it's unmaintained these days though. No commits on sourceforge for 3 years. [0] http://zbar.sourceforge.net/index.html http://zbar.sourceforge.net/index.html
