Platform-related SDK changes

• We've added a support for two different WebAssembly build versions.
  • Standard and default build that has all the optimisations, but has considerably larger file size compared to lightweight version.
  • Lighter version of the WebAssembly bundle that doesn’t have all optimizations for reading of dense barcodes with low quality cameras.

5.17.1

• We've fixed a problem that has caused the enormous size of WebAssembly bundles.

5.17.0

Changes to BlinkID ImageCapture Recognizer

• We've fixed issues with scanning Argentina AlienID, where there were confusions with the regular ID. ClassInfo now correctly returns which ID type is present based on the barcode data.

Platform-related SDK changes

• [BREAKING CHANGE] Due to security reasons, we've added a mechanism to load worker script from an external location.
  • New property WasmSDKLoadSettings.workerLocation was added for this purpose and represents a path to the external worker script file.
  • If omitted, SDK will look for the worker script in the resources directory.

UI Improvements

• We've added property recognitionPauseTimeout to the UI component that defines scanning pause after the first side of a document has been scanned.
  • The purpose of this property is to give the end-user enough time to flip the document before scanning is resumed.
  • Default value is 3800 and represents time in milliseconds.
• We've exposed property cameraExperienceStateDurations on the UI component that can be used to change the default durations of UI animations.

Changes to the BlinkId(Combined)Recognizer:

• We’ve renamed the Swaziland country to Eswatini in results and ClassInfo structure
• We are filling out COUNTRY and REGION fields in ClassInfo, without the field TYPE of document, when using BarcodeID mode for scanning documents where the Front side is not supported, and back side results are extracted from AAMVA compliant barcodes
  • This applies only if ClassInfo isn’t already prepopulated in some other way and when you’re not in FullRecognition mode
• We've added support for including or excluding groups of documents supported by the current license with the captureModeFilter setting
  • Scanning of documents with AAMVA compliant barcodes with BarcodeID mode
  • Scanning of all licensed documents in BlinkID FullRecognition mode

Platform-related SDK changes

• We've fixed a bug where some users were not able to scan passports, even though all document types were allowed by the license key.
• We've improved the performance of the SDK by adding support for WebAssembly SIMD.
  • This increases the scanning performance on compatible browsers up to 77% and up to 94% in cases when WebAssembly threads are also supported.
  • Keep in mind that this feature requires a compatible browser (Chrome 91 and Firefox 90 or newer versions). Only advanced and advanced-threads binaries are using SIMD. In case that the browser doesn't support this feature, basic binary will be used.
• We've reduced the memory fragmentation during video processing, resulting in a smaller memory footprint.
• We've added a mechanism to automatically delete an instance of worker script in case of unsuccessful SDK initialization.
  • New method WasmSDK.delete() was added for this purpose and is available on every instance of the SDK.
• We've changed improper error handling in the VideoRecognizer class.
  • From now on, it's possible to catch all errors that happen during the video recognition.

5.11.3

• We've fixed a broken client-library which resulted as empty folder and unusable development bundle

5.11.2

• We've exposed a couple of functions that are used by the SDK to determine which WebAssembly bundle to load and from which location
  • Function detectWasmType() returns the best possible WebAssembly bundle based on the features a browser supports.
  • Function wasmFolder( WasmType ) returns the name of the resources subfolder of the provided WebAssembly bundle type.
  • For more information on how to implement these functions, see WasmLoadUtils.ts file.

Bugfixes

• Container width size on UI component for action label (Scan or choose from gallery) and action buttons (Device camera and From gallery) are now responsive on Safari.

5.11.1

• We've fixed a broken rollup.config.js which resulted in unusable UMD development bundle

5.11.0

Breaking changes

• We've changed the way how recognizer options are set up when using the UI component
  • You can now specify how a recognizer should behave by using the new recognizerOptions property.
  • To see the full list of available recognizer options, as well as examples on how to use them, check out the relevant source code.

Performance improvements

• We've added three different flavors of WebAssembly builds to the SDK, to provide better performance across all browsers
  • Unless defined otherwise, the SDK will load the best possible bundle during initialization:
    • Basic Same as the existing WebAssembly build, most compatible, but least performant.
    • Advanced WebAssembly build that provides better performance but requires a browser with advanced features.
    • AdvancedWithThreads Most performant WebAssembly build which requires a proper setup of COOP and COEP headers on the server-side.
  • For more information about different WebAssembly builds and how to use them properly, check out the relevant section in our official documentation

Bugfixes

• We fixed the initialization problem that prevented the SDK from loading on iOS 13 and older versions

5.10.0

Newly supported identity documents

• Saudi Arabia - DL (front)
• Saudi Arabia - Resident ID (front)

Changes to the BlinkId(Combined)Recognizer:

• We've improved data extraction through the MRZ:
  • We now return the document type through ClassInfo.
• We've extended the ClassInfo structure with helper methods so you can filter documents by country more easily:
  • Use countryName, isoNumericCountryCode, isoAlpha2CountryCode and isoAlpha3CountryCode to get the full country names or their representative codes defined by ISO.
• We've added another ProcessingStatus called AwaitingOtherSide
  • This status is triggered once BlinkID has finished with the first side of a document and expects the other side, too.
• We've added a new recognition mode for recognizing still images of documents that have already been cropped:
  • Set the scanCroppedDocumentImage to true when you're feeding BlinkID images of documents that have already been cropped and don't require detection.
  • Keep in mind that this setting won't work on document images that haven't been properly cropped.

Changes to the UI component:

• We’ve added new ways you can configure the UI component to better fit the way your app looks and behaves.
  • For a full list of attributes, properties and events you can modify, please see the API documentation.
  • For a full list of CSS variables please see _globals.scss file.

Changes to RecognizerRunner class:

• Invoking RecognizerRunner.processImage on multiple still images will no longer implicitly reset the recognizer chain.
  • This means you can now use BlinkIdImageCaptureRecognizer with the flag captureBothDocumentSides to scan both sides of a document by giving it two still images.
  • If you still need to reset the recognizers, you can do that manually by invoking the RecognizerRunner.resetRecognizers function.
  • A complete example of how to use BlinkIdImageCaptureRecognizer with the flag captureBothDocumentSides with still images has been added here.

Camera management updates

• We've enabled camera image flipping
  • Method flipCamera has been added to VideoRecognizer.
  • You can now let your users mirror the camera image vertically.
