BARCODE READING SDK
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
EymBarcodeReader.ocx is an ActiveX control that performs all necessary image processing and
decoding stages to locate and read a variety of standard 1D barcodes from a bitmap. You
may integrate it within your own application in a development environment such as Visual
Basic, where you can freely decide what the source of these bitmaps should be (e.g image
files of live video captures) and what you may use the decoded barcode data for.

REVISION NOTES
|
• Version 2.4: Version 2.4 has added a few controls that further optimize the system's speed and accuracy. It also fixed am intermittent bug in "Fast mode" - 07/01/2007
• Version 2.3: Version 2.3 has added support to color maps so that the host computer no longer needs to be set to true color (24 or 32 bits). This revision also added a new stage of "reality check" which should both decrease the occurrences of false positives and also slightly speed up the processing of large image files - 05/15/2006
• Version 2.2: Further optimizations leading to drastic speed increases that are most noticeable in thorough mode when processing large image files. Other minor fixes included the versioning number of the OCX file and the StartX, StartY, StopX and StopY properties so that they properly reflect cases when the barcodes are upside down or mirrored - 11/21/2005
• Version 2.1: Added support for Codabar (aka Ames Code/USD-4/NW-7/2 of 7 code) and Patch codes (1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and T) - 07/21/2005
• Version 2.0: Major update leading to improved accuracy and speed plus added ability to decode multiple barcodes from the same image - 05/21/2005
• Version 1.0.e: Correction of the symbol table for code 39 - 04/19/2005
• Version 1.0.d: Added support for Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) and better overall support for code 39 barcodes. This revision also included other performance enhancements - 03/29/2005
• Version 1.0.c: Fixed a reported bug located in the interleaved 2 of 5 decoding module - 03/12/2005
• Version 1.0.b: Barcode location perfromance enhancement increasing the chances of locating and decoding a barcode within a potentially large and busy image - 01/26/2005
