Hi Shane,
I also have 2 applications in production that use barcode scanning. 1D btw no QR but I think processing is the same.
The technique used, is different from what's already presented in this thread.
The customers run there application from a mobile or tablet android device or from a pc.
From the pc the only option is to connect a barcode scanner by USB or Bluetooth. This behaves as a keyboard input. After the barcode is read the scanner sends out the data terminated by some sequence like carriage return.
From the android device the additional option is making use of the camera and the app Barcode Scanner or Barcode Scanner+ from the ZXing Team.
By pressing a button in the IW app, the barcode app is started to scan a barcode. After scanning the control is given back to the IW app.
By using the instructions from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2635...a-web-page this also works in AJAX.
Attached a template file as an example.
I also used the quaggaJS library but found it slow on my test device.
