QR Code Recognition

QR code recognition is an AI algorithm that rapidly reads and decodes QR codes, Data Matrix codes, barcodes, and other symbologies from camera images. It is utilized across a wide range of industrial fields including production line traceability management, logistics receiving and inspection, and retail POS checkout.

Algorithm Overview

It rapidly detects code regions in images, automatically determines the code type, and then decodes it. It provides robust reading performance even with tilt, distortion, low contrast, and partial damage.
