Abstract

In this paper we introduce a method to extract the bar-space patterns directly from the gray-level two-dimensional barcode images, which employs the location and the distance between extreme points of profiles scanned from the barcode image. This algorithm proves to be very robust from the high convolutional distortion environments such as defocussing and warping, even under badly illuminating condition. The proposed algorithm shows excellent performance and is implemented in real-time.
