Barcode
Scan capability overview
Anyline has leveraged our extensive computer vision and machine-learning expertise to develop a best-in-class 1D and 2D barcode symbology SDK. With the ability to tolerate real-world variations like reflections, warping due to cylindrical or curved surfaces, low contrast codes, damaged or obscured codes, and inverted polarity codes, customers can realize faster throughput and more accurate data quality in their front-line barcode scanning applications.
Single barcode scanning
Instantly detect and decode a single barcode with high accuracy. Optimized for real-time scanning across various barcode types, even in challenging conditions.
{
"pluginConfig": {
"id": "MyBarcodePlugin",
"barcodeConfig": {
"multiBarcode": false
},
"cancelOnResult": true
}
}For details, refer to the Plugin Config JSON schema.
Multiple barcode scanning
Capture multiple barcodes in a single scan session, improving efficiency for inventory tracking, logistics, and batch processing use cases.
{
"pluginConfig": {
"id": "MyBarcodePlugin",
"barcodeConfig": {
"multiBarcode": true
},
"cancelOnResult": true
}
}For details, refer to the Plugin Config JSON schema.
Full screen scanning
To enable fullscreen scanning for your plugins, remove the cutoutConfig node from the config JSON. This setup enables object detection anywhere within the scan view, without displaying a cutout.
{
"viewPluginConfig": {
"pluginConfig": {
"id": "barcode_fullframe",
"barcodeConfig": {
"barcodeFormats": [ "ALL" ]
},
"cancelOnResult": true
},
"scanFeedbackConfig": {
"style": "rect",
"strokeWidth": 1,
"strokeColor": "#0099FF",
"fillColor": "#330099FF",
"beepOnResult": false,
"vibrateOnResult": false,
"blinkAnimationOnResult": false
}
}
}This will allow objects being scanned to be detected wherever they are visible in the scan view. No cutout will be displayed.
In code, use the ALCutoutConfig’s defaultCutoutConfig method or pass a null value to the ALScanViewPluginConfig initializer.
While full frame scanning could technically be used on any Anyline plugin, this is only tested to work well with barcodes. Alternatively, you can simulate the clean look without the cutout by setting the strokeWidth and outerAlpha to 0 and adjusting the cutout region to fill as much of the scan view frame as possible.

Consecutive barcode results
Allows the same barcode to be scanned multiple times consecutively in continuous scanning mode.
Default: false – set it to true if you need repeated barcode results.
For details, refer to the Plugin Config JSON schema.
ParseAAMVA
Extract and process structured data from AAMVA-compliant barcodes, commonly found on driver’s licenses and ID cards in the U.S.
Default: false – set it to true to enable automatic parsing.
For details, refer to the Plugin Config JSON schema.
Supported Formats
Custom Symbology Selection: Configure the scanner to detect only the barcode types relevant to your use case, improving speed and accuracy.
