When developing a comprehensive barcode reading application, a common practice to more rapidly and cost-effectively implement it may include the use of barcode reader Software Development Kits (SDKs). It may also include built-in or independent tools to test barcodes and implement barcode/data recovery techniques. During the barcode integration process, improving the accuracy of barcode recognition is crucial. How well a barcode can be decoded can go a long way toward reducing support incidents, improving workflow efficiencies, reducing human-error factors and enhancing robustness of captured data.
