BlinkID/blinkid-android v6.7.0

on GitHub

New Features

• Real ID symbol detection on US driver's license
  • BlinkID can now identify Real ID symbols from US driver’s licenses, providing feedback on their presence or absence. This ensures customers can quickly determine if a Real ID symbol is available on a scanned US driver’s license to be compliant with Real ID regulations.
• UX Improvements
  • Extended duration for UI messages
    • UI messages now remain visible for a longer time 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 scanning 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 the mandatory barcode is not present on the back of US documents.

Minor API changes

• Added BarcodeDetectionFailed as a new ProcessingStatus
  • This status is triggered once the barcode was not found on the image. This processing status can only occur if the document has the mandatory barcode.
• Added new boolean member realIdDetectionStatus to the ImageAnalysisResult. If ImageAnalysisDetectionStatus.Detected, Real ID symbol is present
• Added new member documentNumberAnonymizationSettings to the ClassAnonymizationSettings for seamless integration with the document number anonymization feature.
• Deprecated DocumentScanUISettings, please use BlinkIdUISettings

Bug Fixes
