enioka Haute Couture Android Barcode Scanning Library

This library makes the integration of all barcode scanners easy in any Android application, avoiding vendor lock-in and lowering the cost of advanced scanner integration.

It is compatible with a wide variety of scanning devices, integrated or external, from different vendors such as Zebra, Honeywell, Athesi and more.

When there are no compatible hardware devices available, the library provides a camera reader based on ZBar (default) or ZXing.

Through a common abstraction, it provides access to the following methods (provided the hardware supports them):

  • press/release the scanner’s trigger

  • pause/resume scanning abilities

  • disconnect/reconnect scanners

  • enable/disable illumination from the scanner

  • enable/disable colored LEDs

  • set scanner enabled symbologies

Finally, it provides a ready to use Service that handles scanner lifecycles, as well as a template Activity, and a demo application, allowing you to use scanners in a matter of minutes.
