Add fast EAN and UPC scanning to store apps, self-service kiosks and shopper apps. DeBlur reads motion-blurred product barcodes, Batch MultiScan counts a shelf in one view, and the Web SDK runs in the browser on kiosks, tablets and phones.
Retail scanning happens on the move: a shopper with a mid-range phone, an associate walking an aisle, a kiosk camera with no one to aim it. barKoder is built to read product codes in those conditions, inside your own app.
Bring the packs that cause trouble today:
The Web SDK and the barKoder demo apps include a Retail 1D template for UPC-A, UPC-E, EAN-8 and EAN-13 with DeBlur turned on. Try it in your browser, then apply the same settings in your app.
For a full app example, see the barKoder Shopping Cart example: create products, build lists and check items off by scanning them.

Scan products at a kiosk camera in the browser, or in a native kiosk app on Windows or Linux. Pool Digital runs the Web SDK in an unmanned grocery kiosk.
WASM Barcode Scanner SDK →DeBlur reads heavily blurred EAN and UPC barcodes, even when the bars have fused. Segment Decoding reads 1D codes on cans, bottles and crumpled bags.
DeBlur →Read every shelf label and price tag in one camera view. AR overlays can show stock availability, prices or promo tags over each code.
Batch MultiScan →An associate enters the product and points the camera at the display. The scanner keeps checking every visible code and highlights the one they need.
AR barcode scanning →Keep the camera open for checkout and shelf audits and scan item after item, with a delay so the same product isn't added twice by accident.
Continuous barcode scanning →By the end of 2027, retail POS systems are expected to scan GS1 2D codes alongside EAN/UPC. barKoder reads GS1 QR, GS1 DataMatrix and DataBar and parses GTIN, batch and expiry.
GS1 Parser →| Symbology | Where it appears |
|---|---|
| EAN and UPC | Product identification at checkout; the most common retail barcodes |
| GS1 DataBar | Product labels that also carry weight, dates or serial numbers (DataBar Expanded) |
| QR Code | Loyalty programs, promotions and GS1 Digital Link on packs |
| Data Matrix | Loyalty and product codes; GS1 DataMatrix with batch and expiry |
| Code 128 | Loyalty cards, internal logistics and inventory control |
| ITF-14 | Cases and pallets arriving in the stockroom |
Damaged QR and Data Matrix codes on loyalty cards and packs are read with MatrixSight®.

Yes. DeBlur is built for heavily blurred EAN and UPC codes, including bars fused by motion, lens or focus blur. It is off by default; turn it on with the UPC/EAN DeBlur setting or use the Retail 1D template.
EAN and UPC identify products at checkout. ITF-14 marks cases and pallets, and Code 128 is used for internal logistics and inventory control. Loyalty programs often use QR codes or Code 128, and GS1 DataBar, GS1 DataMatrix and QR codes carry extra data such as batch, expiry or weight. barKoder reads all of them.
No. The WASM Barcode Scanner SDK scans in the browser on phones, tablets and kiosks. If you already have a native shopper app, use the Android, iOS, Flutter or React Native SDK instead.
Yes. Batch MultiScan reads several barcodes in one camera view, and AR Mode marks which codes are already scanned. To look for a single product among many, use Search & Find.
Retail is moving toward GS1 2D codes alongside UPC and EAN by the end of 2027. barKoder reads GS1 DataMatrix and QR codes, including GS1 Digital Link QR codes. The GS1 Parser breaks GS1 element strings into GTIN, batch, serial and expiry fields; Digital Link web addresses are returned as text.
No. Scanning runs on the device, and the SDK doesn't store any information retrieved from a scanned barcode. It connects only for the license check, at least once every 30 days.
