Recognize DOTCODE BarCode using Python

Scan BarCode Images via your Python applications without installing any other software.

 

For a developer, who is trying to scan custom DOTCODE barcode images via Python application, Aspose.Total for Python via .NET API can help to automate the barcode reading and recognition process in any color or size according to business needs. It’s a full package of various APIs dealing different formats as well as 1D, 2D and Postal barcodes. Aspose.BarCode for Python via .NET API that is part of Aspose.Total for Python via .NET package makes this scanning process easy. Moreover, developers can adjust the parameters of the recognition engine to enable fast barcode scanning or improve reading accuracy.

How to Recognize DOTCODE BarCode in Python

  • Use BarCodeReader class object with DecodeType.AllSupportedTypes as parameter
  • By calling read_bar_codes() to get all the DOTCODE code
  • Iterate through all result to print it

Recognition Requirements

  • For DOTCODE Barcode scanning, Python 3.5 or later is required
  • Reference APIs within the project directly from PyPI ( Aspose.BarCode )
  • Or Use the following pip commands pip install aspose-barcode-for-python-via-net
  • Moreover, Microsoft Windows or Linux based OS (see more for BarCode )

What is DOTCODE Barcode?

DotCode is a type of two-dimensional matrix barcode that is designed for high-speed printing applications, such as labeling on production lines. It was developed by the AIM Inc. in 2009 and has been adopted as an ISO standard (ISO/IEC 24778:2008). DotCode consists of a series of dots arranged in a square or rectangular matrix, with each dot representing either a binary “0” or “1”. The data is encoded by varying the size and location of the dots, with the larger dots representing “1” and the smaller dots representing “0”. DotCode has the ability to encode up to 50 alphanumeric characters in a single code, which makes it ideal for printing small amounts of information on products. One of the key advantages of DotCode is its high-speed printing capability. It can be printed at high speeds on a variety of surfaces, including paper, plastic, and metal. This makes it an ideal choice for labeling products on production lines, where speed and accuracy are critical. Another advantage of DotCode is its small size. The matrix can be as small as 0.125 x 0.125 inches (3.18 x 3.18 mm), which allows for printing on small products without taking up too much space. Additionally, DotCode is able to be read from a range of angles, making it a versatile choice for a variety of applications.
