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.'
