Remarks

The following barcode types can be natively recognized in iOS 7:

Barcode typeConstant for use with P:AVFoundation.AVMetadataOutput.MetadataObjectType
Aztec TypeAztecCode
Code 39 TypeCode39Code
Code 39 mod 43 TypeCode39Mod43Code
Code 93 TypeCode93Code
Code 128 TypeCode128Code
PDF417 TypePDF417Code
QR TypeQRCode
UPC-E TypeUPCECode

To recognize a barcode, application developers assign to the MetadataObjectTypes property. This must be done after the AVCaptureMetadataOutput has been added to the Outputs of a AVCaptureSession object, as shown in the following code:

session = new AVCaptureSession();
var camera = AVCaptureDevice.DefaultDeviceWithMediaType(AVMediaType.Video);
var input = AVCaptureDeviceInput.FromDevice(camera);

//Add the metadata output channel
metadataOutput = new AVCaptureMetadataOutput();
var metadataDelegate = new MyMetadataOutputDelegate();
metadataOutput.SetDelegate(metadataDelegate, DispatchQueue.MainQueue);
session.AddOutput(metadataOutput);

//Confusing! *After* adding to session, tell output what to recognize...
metadataOutput.MetadataObjectTypes = new NSString[] {
	AVMetadataObject.TypeQRCode,
	AVMetadataObject.TypeEAN13Code
};

session.StartRunning();
