I am unable to scan the following barcode image on Android:

barcode

It encodes a 13-15 digit number and using an online barcode reader gives the type as CODE_39.

Is there any specific way to handle reading such barcodes on Android?

  • What scanner packages are you attempting to use? Do you have a specific error message that you're getting when attempting to scan? It will help us if you post some of your code you're currently using to scan the barcode. – Ryan C Oct 15 '18 at 13:46
  • I'm not sure of the reason since I'm unable to scan it using even using apps such as https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.qrcodescanner.barcodescanner – S_S Oct 15 '18 at 14:56
  • @GhostCat I am myself unsure of the reason and am looking for a helpful explanation. – S_S Oct 18 '18 at 16:01
  • The problem is: it is not even clear if you talk about a *programming* problem. – GhostCat Oct 18 '18 at 16:31
  • @GhostCat I am not sure here but is it because of a violation of the quiet zone in the barcode image provided in the question? – S_S Nov 05 '18 at 10:51
  • This community is about **programming** problems. Do you have a problem with code you wrote? – GhostCat Nov 05 '18 at 12:55

I believe you just need to zoom out a bit by moving your camera away. I'm not entirely sure though.
