Universal Scanner-UrTools (QR)

The application Universal Scanner is an Mobile app, that allows a user to scan 1-D or 2-D "graphical barcodes" with the camera on their Android device. The program turns that scan into the original data that is represented by the barcode. This allows the user to get to web addresses, geographical coordinates, small pieces of text, and much more just by pointing their device's camera at a barcode. In this way the mobile based system works almost like a conventional Barcode Reader except that it is only composed of commodity hardware and this software application.

There are many different types of barcodes that are supported by this application, in addition to the original 1-D barcode. These are commonly provided on products such as food, books, clothing, DVDs, and most other products sold commercially. When the Barcode Scanner application scans the 1-D barcode on one of these types of items, it can automatically search the web for that product. With this functionality, the application can enable the user to quickly do comparisons between the price of an item they are looking at in a store with prices from online retailers.
