Changes to the BlinkId(Combined)Recognizer

• You can now retrieve an image of the document owner along with cropped images of the document itself whenever you’re scanning an AAMVA-compliant ID:

  • Using BarcodeId as a RecognitionMode lets you scan US driver licenses and IDs that BlinkID can’t read from the Visual Inspection Zone (VIZ) alone. Use it to extract:
    • A face image from the front side
    • Barcode data from the back side
    • Cropped document images of both sides
  • You can disable this RecognitionMode by setting enableBarcodeId to false in the RecognitionModeFilter.

• We've improved data extraction through the MRZ:

  • We now allow standard M/F values for gender on Mexican documents (along with localized H/M values)

• We're now converting dates to the Gregorian calendar for:

  • Taiwan documents with Republic of China (ROC) calendar dates
  • Saudi documents with Islamic calendar dates

• We're now auto-filling all ‘partial’ dates found on identity documents (showing year or month-year only):

  • Date of issue will be converted to the first day of the (first) month
    • E.g. '1999' will be converted to '01.01.1999.'
    • E.g. '03.1999.' will be converted to '01.03.1999.'
  • Date of expiry will be converted to the last day of the (last) month
    • E.g. '1999' will be converted to '31.12.1999.'
    • E.g. '03.1999.' will be converted to '31.03.1999.'
