Changes to the BlinkId(Combined)Recognizer:

• We enabled retrieving the face image and cropped document image on all documents with AAMVA-compliant barcodes. This behavior activates the MB_RECOGNITION_MODE_BARCODE_ID MBRecognitionMode. You can opt-out of this behavior by setting enableBarcodeId to MB_FALSE in the MBRecognitionModeFilter.
  • This enables scanning US driver licenses and IDs on which OCR isn't supported. Use this new recognition mode to extract:
    • Face image from the front side
    • Barcode data from the back side
    • Cropped document images for both sides.
• 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:
  • On Taiwan documents with ROC calendar dates
  • On Saudi documents with Islamic calendar dates
• We're now filling all date fields when dates are written in a 'partial' form (year only 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.'
