Camera has problem reading barcodes with neoreader

xperiamusE — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 06:30:25 GMT

My Xperia E is not able to Scan barcodes with neoreader.

My model and a model in a Store have the same problem.

I tested it with a Xperia gio without problems.

The barocde is not sharp when i try to scan, but technical descriptions tell me that the xperia E has autofocus function.

I there any solution ?

Unfortunately you can run into this when the barcode is too small.

Sorry, but i speak about barcodes which are in normal size on packages and readed problemless with other xperia like gio or z in just one moment when the camera of them is detecting that there is a barcode.

The combination of Xperia E and neoreader is not able to read a normal sized barcode. Try it out at your reseller. It is not a problem of my device it is a fundamental Xperia E problem

There are a few possible resons for not being able to scan barcodes:

- the camera of Xperia E does not have auto-focus;

- barcodes can come in a variety of formats: see http://mdn.morovia.com/kb/Identify-Barcode-Format-10623.html for barcode formats;

- barcodes can be read using several algorithms, so your problem may be application-dependent.

Usually for reading barcodes a 5MP camera with auto focus is required, whereas in Xperia E the camera is only 3.2MP which cannot distinguishly see the bars on barcodes that is why you cant scan

P.S. : i'm too facing this problem:smileyplain::smileysad:

print pdf417 barcode in .net

Have you tested other scanners with Xperia?You'd better try some other scanners to see if the problem come from the app or your Xperia.
