barcode decoding from an image

Hai,
I gotta decode a barcode from an image ( ppm, bmp, or jpg). I realize the
first milestone would be to recognize a barcode with in the image:

I took a small window (say 80X80 pixels) and if a barcode is present in
this window all pixels horizontally would have the same values. Well as you
can see this is not perfect. I'm right now working with PPM image.

and then to decode the barcode itself (which i've no clue how to do).

I've searched the for a long time but could not find any help regarding
barcode decoding. I would appritiate if any of you can provide me any help
at all. I would also appriciate if you could give me a better algorithm for
detecting a barcode.

Thanks in advance.

Try comp.programmin g or comp.graphics.
The fact that you are implementing your algorithm in C doesn't make it
topical on a language group.

I have an asp.net application which loads a Crystal Reports ReportDocument, passes in parameters for selecting data from the report's database connection, renders the report for previewing on the client then allows the user to print the report on a networked printer.

I am working on an online promotional deal for a client where I need to be able to create a barcode that can be redeemed at checkout of one of their branch stores. Has anyone worked with this before? It seems pretty straitforward in terms of genrating the barcode dynamically from the numbers I'll be given, but doesn't a barcode have to print at a particular size and resolution in order to work? I was thinking of generating the barcode...

Hey all, I've written a VB.Net app that creates picture badges complete with barcodes. The problem is that the barcode quality is not good enough to be read by scanners. I'm using the DRAWSTRING function to place the barcode on the image, but no matter what graphics settings (.InterpolationMode/.CompositingQuality etc.) I manipulate, the barcode image remains poor quality. For exaple I'm using a solidbrush that is black, but some of...

Does anyone know of any decent (open source or commercial) python barcode recognition tools or libraries. I need to read barcodes from pdfs or images, so it will involve some OCR algorithm. I also only need to read the code 93 symbology, so it doesn't have to be very fancy. The most important thing to me is that it outputs in some python friendly way, or ideally that it is written in python. Any tips would be great!

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
