I’m looking for a way to read GS1 DataBar style barcodes from an Android app. Has anyone tried that? Are there any open source barcode scanner projects that I can take advantage of to read GS1 barcodes?

That will scan GS1 codes, but GS1 isn’t a bar code format as much as its a format of the number encoded into the barcode. Processing what those numbers mean is outside zxing’s realm.
