Hi, It is possible to have a component that enables the use of the camera and to be able to scan barcodes or QR (1D & 2D), for Blazor Web assembly and Blazor Server Side. Now this require JavaScript library like as QuaggaJS.
I think that having such a component is very useful and will allow you to build applications with advanced functionalities, other companies offer but only to generate barcodes or QR codes.
Example thanks aLorsSilvermort : https://github.com/LorsSilvermort/BlazorBarcodeReader
Best Rgards,

Hello everyone,
Our FileSelect and Upload components now provide a Capture parameter, which allows the user's device to turn on its camera and the user to take a picture of a Barcode or QRCode on the fly.
The server-side reading (decoding) algorithm itself is outside the scope of our Telerik UI for Blazor library.

Victor, did you manage to get that sample working? I'm also interested in doing this, but got an error in the browser console when I tried it. Someone reported the same thing as an issue in the repository, but the code author hasn't responded.
Thanks
Hello Victor,
I am not sure if such a component will actually fit a UI components suite, because it tackles hardware and OCR, essentially, yet I am going to keep it open to see what the community thinks.
