Powered by general detection model

Code
pip install inference-sdk
# 1. Import the library
from inference_sdk import InferenceHTTPClient

# 2. Connect to your workspace
client = InferenceHTTPClient(
  api_url="https://serverless.roboflow.com",
  api_key="API_KEY"
)

# 3. Run your workflow on an image
result = client.run_workflow(
  workspace_name="<YOUR_WORKSPACE>",
  workflow_id="<YOUR_WORKFLOW_ID>",
  images={
    "image": "YOUR_IMAGE.jpg"  # Path to your image file
  },
  parameters={
    "classes": "barcode, bar_code, detection, qr_code"
  },
  use_cache=True  # cache workflow definition for 15 minutes
)

# 4. Get your results
print(result)

About Barcodes Model

Barcodes and QR codes are images with black and white components that, when scanned, can be coded to transmit information. Barcodes are machine-readable and often used in retail, logistics, manufacturing, point-of-sale, event ticketing, shipping, delivery, and asset management use cases.

This dataset uses bounding boxes for detection of barcodes and QR codes. Once a barcode is identified within an image, an application could trigger the reading of the barcode or post-processing can be used to crop the barcode to be passed for an application to read the barcode.

Barcodes can be read with computer vision using mobile devices such as iPhones or Android devices.
