Barcode Camera
This module adds the device camera as a scan source to the Barcode app, so operators can scan without a dedicated hardware scanner.
A floating button opens the camera with Odoo’s own barcode scanner dialog. The code it reads is fed into the same event bus a hardware scanner uses, so the active screen handles it exactly like any other scan. The button is plugged in through the barcode_app_widgets registry of barcode_scanner, without patching the app.

Usage
Install barcode_camera next to a feature module such as barcode_stock.
A camera button appears in the bottom-right corner of every screen that reads a scan, whichever module it comes from: the home screen, the picking list and picking, the move wizard, the selectors, and so on. Tap it, point the camera at a barcode, and the scan is processed as if it came from a hardware scanner. The codes read are the ones Odoo’s scanner dialog reads: EAN, UPC, Code 128, Code 39, ITF, QR, Data Matrix and the like.
There is nothing to register for that: a screen reads scans through the hooks of barcode_scanner (useBarcodeHandler), which counts the screens doing so, and the button shows whenever one does.
The browser only gives access to the camera in a secure context (HTTPS or localhost). Without it, like Odoo’s own camera buttons, the button is not shown, and hardware or manual scanning remain available.
