Samples

Basic Barcode Reader Samples

Sample	Description
ReadAnImage	This sample demonstrates the simplest way to read barcodes from an image file and output barcode format and text.
ReadMultipleImages	This sample demonstrates the simplest way to read barcodes from directory with image files and output barcode format and text.
BarcodePerformanceEvaluator	This sample demonstrates how to read barcodes from files in the specified directory and return results plus performance metrics.
GeneralSettings	This sample demonstrates how to configure general used settings and read barcodes from an image file.
GridBarcodeScanner	This sample demonstrates a multi-phase pipeline for decoding a large barcode grid from a single image, maximizing the decode rate with low latency.
MultiThreadDecoding	This sample demonstrates how to read barcodes and get barcode results in self-managed thread.
ParameterTuner	This sample demonstrates how to adjust and test different parameter settings to optimize barcode recognition performance.
ReadDPMBarcode	This sample demonstrates how to read DPM (Direct Part Marking) barcodes and get barcode results.
ShowLocalizedVSDecodedBarcodes	This sample demonstrates how to highlight successfully decoded and only-localized barcodes with different styles of rectangles.
VideoDecoding	This sample demonstrates how to read barcodes from video frames.

Additional Samples using Capture Vision SDK

In addition to the classic barcode decoding samples listed above, the following samples go a step further by parsing the decoded results and showcasing more structured workflows.

Important

These samples use the dynamsoft-capture-vision package instead of dynamsoft-barcode-reader. If you're switching to these samples, make sure to download and use the correct package.

Sample	Description
DriverLicenseScanner	Shows how to capture and extract user's information from driver license/ID.
GS1AIScanner	Shows how to extract and interpret GS1 Application Identifiers (AIs) from GS1 barcodes.

License

The library requires a license to work, you use the API InitLicense to initialize license key and activate the SDK.

These samples use a free public trial license which require network connection to function. You can request a 30-day free trial license key from Customer Portal which works offline.
