Hmm.. Hadn't considered using NTSC video.
I was thinking in terms of linear CCD devices, which I've seen used.

NTSC puts some constraints on you as far as how fast you need to be, to
pick up the bars, I suppose you might rotate the camera 90 degrees, and use
the Hsync to count the width of the bars..

If you're meaning to pick up a barcode that's a small scene within the
larger picture, possibly at some wierd angle, that would be an interesting
challenge.
