Scandit Data Capture SDK 6.19 Release Notes (September 19, 2023)

See also the System Requirements of the Scandit Data Capture SDK across all platforms.

New Features

ID

  • Renamed AamvaCloudVerifier to AamvaBarcodeVerifier, which allows the verification of CapturedId.

  • Added IdCaptureFeedback. ID Capture allows to configure sound & vibration feedback to emit when a document is captured, rejected or the timeout occurs. By default the feedback is emitted when a document is captured.

  • Added support for extracting information in Arabic script for several documents.

Performance Improvements

Barcode

  • Improved performance when a lot of symbologies are enabled when using BarcodeCapture.

  • Added support for Code128 with damaged end patterns (missing, fused or covered bars). This support is automatically disabled if “strict mode” is selected.

  • Improved QR code reader robustness for medium to large codes with small local deformations (e.g. crumpling, bending) or damage.

Bug Fixes

ID

  • Fixed multiple issues where it was sometimes not possible to scan barcodes from AAMVA driver’s licenses.

  • Fixed an issue where it was not possible to scan certain Vietnamese passports.

  • Fixed an issue where it was sometimes not possible to scan a barcode from a Pennsylvania driver’s license.

  • Fixed an issue where it was not possible to scan certain passports when the id.IdDocumentType.PassportViz option was selected.

  • Fixed an issue that caused a failure of the AamvaVizBarcodeComparisonVerifier for valid IDs.

  • Fixed an issue where scanning MRZ documents in ID Capture incorrectly displayed dates for year 2000.

API Changes

ID

  • Removed id.IdDocumentType.UsVisaViz, id.IdDocumentType.VisaMrz should be used instead.

  • Added id.CapturedId.DocumentAdditionalNumber which represents the additional number of the document.

  • Added IdCaptureOverlay.setFrontSideTextHint() and IdCaptureOverlay.setBackSideTextHint() that allow to set custom text for textual hints displayed when scanning the front or the back of a document respectively.
