Re: Welcome to the DEFCON Badge Hacking Contest
Generic, all-purpose barcode readers? I haven't found any free applications.
1-D barcode readers? I spent forever and a day attempting to decode the Toorcon badge and I still don't know what the code said (if anything). The problem here is that all the barcodes look similar but actually encode differently.
2-D barcode readers, as in this case? I assumed it was the freely available Datamatrix barcode by its shape/look and then used the simple (and open source) libdmtx.
I haven't seen zxing before, but I'll give it a try.
