Challenge

The project involved integrating barcode scanning into an unmanned grocery kiosk, where fast and reliable product scanning is essential for a smooth customer experience. Before implementing the barKoder SDK, barcode scanning with mobile cameras was slower and less efficient. The main challenges were improving scan speed and accuracy in order to make the kiosk workflow faster and more dependable.

Solution

The team chose barKoder SDK because of its strong overall performance, with speed being the main factor that stood out compared to other options. There was no single feature that drove the decision; instead, the combination of fast scanning, reliable barcode recognition, and smooth implementation made barKoder a strong fit for the unmanned grocery kiosk use case.

Result

After implementing barKoder, the kiosk workflow became faster and more efficient. While the exact percentage of performance improvement is difficult to measure, the team clearly experienced faster barcode scanning compared to their previous mobile camera-based solution. Implementation went well overall, and the main reason they would recommend barKoder is its scanning speed.
