iPhone DataMatrix Reader Source Code

My iPhone DataMatrix Reader Xcode project is now available as free download on CocoaHeads Aachen. It works on the iPhone Simulator (using a barcode image stored in the application bundle) and on the iPhone. Because it uses the official iPhone SDK there is no need to jailbrake the iPhone, but you need the iPhone OS 2.0.

I will update the Xcode project soon so the DataMatrix Reader will work on the iPod touch as well. You may use the source code for personal use only. If you would like to use the Cocoa libdmtx wrapper for commercial use please drop me a line.

    Hi Stefan, the video hasn’t surfaced on http://hci.rwth-aachen.de/cocoaheads yet. Do you know where I could see the video of your presentation?

  2. Stefan Hafeneger,

    Hi Nik, we didn’t record a video on the CocoaHeads meeting. But I’ll do a screencast showing exactly what I did then. I’m still in San Francisco but I’ll do the screencast next week, when I’m back in Germany.

  3. David D,

    Please update Barcode to use the objective-C barcode reading library ported to iPhone called ZXING. It was created by google for Android and is well maintained.

  5. bluemukaki,

    Hey this is great~! Just downloaded it off the appstore. Any chance for a QR and Barcode decoder update in the future?

  6. Peter Bender,

    Thx for the app, Stefan. I would also like to request support for QR codes. I look forward to the update. Congrats on being the first to offer a barcode app.

  7. Ian,

    What kind of barcodes dose this reader working on?

  8. rk,

    Thx – Just downloaded the app. Any plans for QR and also I created a code with a URL and browser does not launch. Do you plan to add that feature??

  9. Rick,

    A few comments, first of all thanks for this app! Is it possible to filter the image to produce a higher contrast when taking snapshots of matrices that are behind glass, or on a CRT monitor? Does the program also unskew a matrix that was taken at an angle? or one that is not square because it is affixed to some non-flat surface?
    Thanks
    Rick

  10. Chris,

    Hi Stefan,

    i just got you Barcode App for my iPhone. i really like it since its not so sofisticated as NeoReader. with Barcode _i_ can decide, what to do with the decoded message…i regard this as a feature :-)

    but i do have a little problem or maybe i dont know how to operate the app properly.

    when decoding and SAVING the message it gets into this bookmark kind of folder. fine.

    but when i try to access saved messages, i just see the first words/letters of the text. i cannot open the whole one.

    am i doing something wrong or is there a bug?

    thx for this nice app & bye, chris

    Hi there, great thank you! I was just wondering if I’m doing something wrong, every time I go to take a picture the app freezes, do you have any ideas?

    Thanks
