Bar Code Support

[TheBigDuck]

I'd like to create an app that uses the camera to read bar codes or QR Codes.

Does RunRev Mobile support this on either Android or iOS?

Hi Duck,

You can do it but there are a couple of problems you need to solve. Firstly, the camera doesn't currently permit you to overlay a mask within which the user can centre the bar code image. So once the picture of the bar code is captured, you need to do pixel-level analysis of the image to determine where the actual bar code lines are, and then read across those lines to determine what they say. All do-able, but it's likely to be painfully slow.
