I want to make an Android app that uses the camera to take a photo of a barcode for a product to get the number of barcode, but I have some problem to make the implementation.
The main question is how can I use the camera to take a picture to recognize the id of this barcode without using any external application.
Thanks for your help!

Why won't you use the external application? This is the power of Android apps - they can use each other functionality, which is implemented perfectly in their app.
