Recognize UPC BarCode using Python

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

 

For a developer, who is trying to scan custom UPC 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 UPC BarCode in Python

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

Recognition Requirements

  • For UPC 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 UPC Barcode?

A UPC barcode, or Universal Product Code barcode, is a type of barcode that is widely used in retail settings to encode product information. The UPC barcode consists of a series of vertical bars and spaces of varying widths, and is designed to be read by a barcode scanner. UPC barcodes typically consist of 12 digits, with the first digit indicating the type of product, and the remaining digits representing the product code and other information such as the manufacturer and the country of origin. When a UPC barcode is scanned, the information encoded in the barcode is transmitted to a computer system, which can use the data to identify the product and retrieve additional information, such as the price and inventory status. This makes UPC barcodes an important tool for managing retail inventory and streamlining the checkout process.
