JailHelper 1.1 details

A barcode (also bar code) is a machine-readable representation of information in a visual format on a surface. The mapping between messages and barcodes is called a symbology. The specification of a symbology includes the encoding of the single digits/characters of the message as well as the start and stop markers into bars and space, the size of the quiet zone required to be before and after the barcode as well as the computation of a checksum. Barcodes are widely used to implement Auto ID Data Capture (AIDC) systems that improve the speed and accuracy of computer data entry. JailHelper provides the ability to search for a barcode on a page, recognize its symbology and recognize the data within. Highlights include the following: Selection of symbologies for recognition Setting barcode properties (i.e., color, orientation, density, image quality) Getting distinct barcode text and other information found Return the barcode region JailHelper provides recognition of the following 1D symbologies: CODE 39 CODABAR INTERLEAVED 2 OF 5 INDUSTRIAL 2 OF 5 BCD MATRIX EAN 8 EAN 13 CODE 128 UPCE UPCA CODE 93 JailHelper can help you save valuable time while maximizing the number of documents that can be processed daily.
