Barcode Scanner in here (Like the G1) [APP]

Awesome. Works great, thanks.

I think the key is that this program takes a picture and interprets the bar code.

The program makes it very simple to replace google with any other online lookup.

So, if you find a better site that will search pricing based on a UPC, then you can use that.

I saw some people in the xda thread were using pricegrabber.

Nice App!

Heh, I wrote my own, and its in similar state to the one linked. I'm not half-assing mine though, its going to do real time video interpretation, none of thos trying to take the perfect picture crap.

Get this app and info here:

You'll have to do a manual install and create your own programs folder shortcut. After you run the program for the first time edit your settings.txt file to reflect these changes:

RUN=\windows\OperaL.exe
RUNARGS=http://google.com/products?addr=[your_zip_code_here]&q=!###!&scoring=p

Replace the "[your_zip_code_here]" with your actual zip code. These changes will point the program to a google products page (with shipping costs to your zip code) in Opera.

Enjoy!

Awesome Util ! Thx to all from XDA and PPCgeeks that brought it to us!
Tested and confirmed. It works like a charm. I would suggest to keep the phone about 3+ inches or so away from the Barcode ( depending on the barcode of course). I tried it both in Landscape and Portrait mode and it read the barcode very fast. Also if you want to add the the different website it very easy to do and you don't have to change it on the phone...When you have ur phone connected to ur PC navigate to the file location of Barcorama and drag and drop the settings.txt file to your desktop and open it with notebad and simply change the settings as listed by Daveotero or add the website of your liking. Hope this Helps.

Been using Barcorama for a while, in the XDA thread there is another site (fastpricechecker or something) you can use. It's just online stuff obviously, I don't think there's any way you're going to query local stores' databases.

I find that it doesn't pick up all barcodes, and if it's going to read it, it'll happen almost immediately. I have heard of a few people working on a realtime scanning reader, including baffles above.

Does anyone know how to get the program to show up in the list of programs once installed? I unzipped the .exe to my program files folder, but I can't get it to be recognized by the program list to add to the quick launch screen
