bcWebCam 2.5.7

bcWebCam is a versatile utility tool that allows you to easily scan barcodes and QR codes using your computer's webcam. With just a few simple steps, you can capture the barcode image and let the program handle the rest of the process, including reading the barcode.

This handy software is perfect for cataloging items or for use in online shopping applications like Amazon Marketplace or eBay. It is available for free, but there are also professional editions available with additional features.

One of the key features of bcWebCam is its ability to turn your webcam into a barcode scanner. However, it is important to note that you will need a high-quality webcam that can focus on close-up items for accurate scanning.

Upon launching the program, you will be guided through a brief tutorial that explains how to use the tool effectively. The interface is dominated by a live video window, providing ample space for the barcode to be displayed and read effortlessly.

bcWebCam supports various barcode types, including EAN barcodes and QR codes in the free edition. The professional editions offer support for additional barcode types, such as Code 128 ABC, Code 39, Code2/5, Code 128, Code 93, Code 11, PostNet, GS1 DataBar, Data Matrix, PDF417, and Aztec.

While bcWebCam efficiently scans barcodes and QR codes, it does have some limitations. For example, it does not offer the ability to search popular sites with the barcode information directly. Instead, you will need to navigate to the desired site yourself. Despite this, bcWebCam remains a valuable program solution for extracting barcodes and meeting your scanning needs.

Overall, bcWebCam is a reliable and user-friendly tool for scanning barcodes and QR codes using your computer's webcam. Whether you need to catalog items or use it for online shopping, this software provides a convenient and efficient solution.
