HB Blog 102: How To Decode QR Code From An Image Programmtically???

A barcode is an optical machine-readable representation of data relating to the object to which it is attached.QR code (abbreviated from Quick Response Code) is the trademark for a type of matrix barcode (or two-dimensional barcode).
Various Android applications came on Google Play for scanning QR code and barcodes. For integrating QR code in Android you can follow my blog How To Integrate Barcode/QrCode Scanner For Android?

In this post, I would like to show barcode/QrCode scanner for android using Zxing library without  camera intent.We can scan QR code directly from a image which can be browsed directly from sd-card.

Refer the below link for complete sample code:-

Have a look on few code snippets,
