Scanning barcodes from still images
In addition to detecting barcodes from a live camera stream, the Barcode Scanner SDK can scan barcodes from still images imported from the gallery or any other source.
Initializing the SDK
Before using the Scanbot SDK, it must be initialized.
Processing the image
Obtaining the image
Image picking is platform-specific in KMP. Implement platform-specific logic for Android and iOS, then convert the result to ImageRef.
Scanning barcodes
Call ScanbotSDK.barcode.scanFromImage() with the source image and a scanner configuration.

Result.Success— contains theBarcodeScannerResultwith the detected barcodes.Result.Failure— contains the error if the scan could not be completed.
