After recent improvements, our Barcode Scanner SDK is now capable of scanning up to 26 barcodes per second, taking only 0.04 seconds per barcode. This far surpasses the previous scan time of 0.2 seconds.
This speed breakthrough is the result of continuous improvements to the SDK’s underlying machine learning model and the computer vision algorithms. Yet our development team did not solely focus on the barcode scanner’s speed: Its accuracy and its ability to scan barcodes in adverse conditions such as poor lighting are just as important. After all, scanning speeds are one thing, but an enterprise-grade scanning SDK also has to have near-perfect accuracy, no matter the circumstances.
The viability of our comprehensive improvement approach recently became evident when we built an elaborate setup to put the latest iteration of our scanner to the test: We let a conveyor belt move 34 unique barcodes past an iPhone running our SDK at high speed for 10 seconds. The result: 260 barcodes scanned, without a single miss.
Another hallmark of our SDK is its ease of integration: Thanks to well-structured documentation and responsive developer support, companies can implement the SDK’s scanning capabilities in less than an hour. With the recently introduced RTU UI v.2.0, which offers app developers pre-configured, easy-to-implement user interface components for building the scanning screens, integration time can be cut down to mere minutes.
We are proud of our engineering team’s achievements. After all, they know best that code quality and well-thought-out documentation are key to a smooth integration process. That’s why they make sure our product is not only powerful, but also loved by fellow developers.
