v6.7.0

3 weeks ago

6.7.0

New Features

  • Real ID detection on US driver's license
    • BlinkID now includes the capability to identify Real ID symbols from US driver's licenses, providing users with immediate feedback on the presence or the absence of a Real ID symbol. This enhances user convenience and compliance with Real ID requirements, ensuring customers can quickly determine if a Real ID is available on a scanned US driver's license.
  • UX Improvements
    • Extended duration for UI messages
      • UI messages now remain visible for a longer duration after scanning, improving user experience. Users can now review post-scanning messages at a comfortable pace, leading to a smoother process.
    • Success indicator for front side capture
      • BlinkID now displays a clear success indicator after scanning the front side of a document. This visual cue enhances user confidence by providing immediate feedback during the capturing process.
  • Partial anonymization of the "Document Number"
    • To ensure user privacy and security, BlinkID now offers the option of partially anonymizing the document number from the scanned document.
  • Mandatory Barcode Presence on US documents
    • To minimize the cases of capturing the front side of the document as the back frame in the results, BlinkID now requires the presence of a barcode before saving the back frame on US documents. Processing status BarcodeDetectionFailed is returned when mandatory barcode is not present on the back of US documents.

Minor API changes

  • We've added another ProcessingStatus called BarcodeDetectionFailed
    • This status is triggered once barcode was not found on the image. This processing status can only occur if document has mandatory barcode.
  • Added new boolean member realIDDetectionStatus to the ImageAnalysisResult. If true, Real ID symbol is present, false otherwise.
  • Added new member documentNumberAnonymizationSettings to the ClassAnonymizationSettings for seamless integration with the document number anonymization feature.

Bugfixes

  • Updated internal mapping for Myanmar Passports to display nationality as Myanmarese instead of Burmese on Myanmar passports.
  • Date of Issue marked optional on Peru ID offering users more flexibility in capturing ID information.
  • Date of Expiry handling logic for MRZ improved in cases where documents with a date of expiry 1969 were not correctly sanitized.
  • Fixed the issue when reconfigureRecognizers function not working properly.
