Barcode Scanning Software
Scanner Software Development Kits (SDK) and Utilities
Zebra’s Scanner Software Development Kits (SDKs) give you everything you need to easily create fully featured applications.
App Development As It Should Be
Capture and optimize images and control all aspects of your scanners and your data collection process. Upgrade firmware and enable multiple applications to simultaneously talk to one or more scanners. Keep enterprises ahead of the curve by solving tomorrow’s challenges. With these SDKs, you ensure peak and continuous performance of Zebra scanners, now and in the future.
Total Control of Zebra Scanners
Total Control of Zebra Scanners
Programmatically control your scanner to handle any business need. Set the beeper, LEDs and vibration feedback mechanisms to confirm accurate scanning. Configure scanners to capture images and only those symbologies you want. Minimize downtime with visibility into critical data, like cordless battery health, and simplify management with remote tools that let you upgrade firmware and query asset information.

Develop Scanner Applications for Windows Faster
Today's scanner applications need to do more than just handle barcode data. They need to support the capturing of images, set parameters, upgrade firmware and more. Advanced users may need to support multiple applications running on one PC, communicating with more than one scanner. The Scanner SDK for Windows meets and exceeds these needs. This "technology-agnostic" toolkit is compatible with multiple programming languages, multiple development environments and multiple communications protocols. No matter what scanners you have today, or what you may purchase tomorrow, you can develop and deploy applications faster and more cost-effectively than ever before.
Easily Develop Scanning Applications for Android Tablets and Smartphones
Your workers are using Android tablets and smartphones to streamline everyday processes — but the scanning functionality of their built-in cameras lack the speed, performance and ergonomics needed to capture barcodes quickly, easily and accurately. Now, with the Zebra Scanner SDK for Android, give your workers a powerful Bluetooth™ Zebra cordless scanner that can be controlled through your Android tablet and smartphone line of business applications. All scanner functions are easily integrated into your Android application, reducing development time and cost.
The result? Your workers get the enterprise-class scanning performance they need to maximize productivity in a scanner that brings all-day comfort to the most scan-intensive jobs.
Easily Develop Scanning Applications for Apple Tablets and Smartphones
Your workers are using Apple tablets and smartphones to streamline everyday processes — but the scanning functionality of their built-in cameras lacks the speed, performance and ergonomics your workers need to capture barcodes quickly, easily and accurately. Now, with the Zebra Scanner SDK for iOS, give your workers a powerful Bluetooth™ Zebra cordless scanner controlled through your Apple tablet and smartphone line of business applications. All scanner functions are easily integrated into your iOS application, quickly and easily, reducing development time and cost.
The result? Your workers get the enterprise-class scanning performance they need to maximize productivity in a scanner that brings all-day comfort to the most scan-intensive jobs.
Develop Linux Applications Faster
Today's scanner applications need to do more than just handle barcode data. They need to support the capturing of images, set parameters, upgrade firmware and more. The Scanner SDK for Linux meets and exceeds those needs. No matter what scanners you have today or what you may purchase tomorrow, you can develop and deploy applications faster and more cost-effectively than ever before.
Display Barcode Data in Your Application
Display Barcode Data in Your Application
Let users see all data in any scanned barcode to verify the right item was scanned — and help error-proof your processes.
Control LEDs, Beeper and Vibration Feedback
Control LEDs, Beeper and Vibration Feedback
Configure the three types of feedback indicators in Zebra cordless scanners to meet the needs of your specific environment. A busy retail store may enable the beeper and LED lights, while a hospital may choose to disable the beeper so sleeping patients aren’t disturbed.
Automatically Reconnect Scanner and Device
Automatically Reconnect Scanner and Device
Do you lose your connection when the scanner is carried out of Bluetooth range from your tablet or smartphone? No problem! When the scanner is back in range, it will automatically reconnect to the right device.
