Makes barcode scanning easier, it is no longer necessary to take a picture of the barcode - just point the phone at it.
dBarScan.SL 1D is a C# Silverlight component for Windows Phone that allows barcode images captured with the Windows Phone camera to be decoded. It lets you use your Windows Phone to scan barcodes, in effect your Windows Phone becomes a barcode scanner or barcode reader. dBarScan.SL 1D can decode Codabar, Code 39, Code 93, Code 128, GS1-13 (including ISBN, ISSN and ISMN, and supplementaries), GS1-128, UPC-A, UPC-E, and members of the 2 of 5 family. dBarScan.SL 1D can also analyze the barcode image and report on the validity of the image and the subtype changes within Code 128/GS1-128 symbols. dBarScan.SL 1D requires Visual Studio 2010 and the Windows Phone developer toolkit for building products. The package includes a sample project with C# source code. The sample project may be compiled in Visual Studio 2010 and may be deployed to Windows Phones or emulators. As the emulator does not contain a suitable camera, the sample project may be built in debug mode where it uses a sample picture for decoding.
This is an update release of dBarScan SL components for Windows Phone 7.5 (Mango) which enables developers to create Apps that scan most common 1D barcodes through the camera lens. The Mango update makes the components much more useful in creating barcode scanning Apps because it is no longer necessary to take a picture of the barcode - just point the phone at it.
dLSoft developed from a software house created in 1988 for the specific purpose of creating barcode and labeling software and components for Microsoft Windows. Through the dLSoft range of products the company has been providing labeling applications and barcoding components for a range of Windows developer environments since Windows 2, including more recently a range of components for the .NET and CE.NET environments. In 2004 dLSoft expanded its activities to include Java components, and in 2005 a number of products for the Mac OS-X platform were released.
