      • ID Cards from Brazil, Hong Kong, Macao, China
      • Chinese Entry & Exit Permits
    • The Document Data Extractor now detects whether a document is in focus already and only starts the heavy recognition pipeline when the image quality is suitable.
    • Added a new method setGlareDetectionConfiguration method in SBSDKDocumentDataExtractorConfigurationBuilder to fine-tune the detection of glare over the fields.
    • Added a new method setAutoFocusConfig in SBSDKDocumentDataExtractorConfigurationBuilder to precisely control the exclusion of frames that lack focus.
    • The Document Data Extractor can now detect glare in images. If fields are obstructed by glare, these fields will be returned with a validation status of SBSDKGenericDocumentFieldValidationStatus.obstructed.
    • Added case errorStillFocussing to SBSDKDocumentDataExtractionStatus.
    • Returns the issuing series of German ID Cards as part of the returned document as the Series field.
    • Introduced a Document Verification API including document semantics verification capabilities.
  • Document Scanner:
    • Added property showReviewScreenOnStart to SBSDKUI2DocumentScanningFlow. If enabled, the scanner automatically navigates to the review screen when the flow starts.
    • Added property openReviewAfterEachScan to SBSDKUI2CameraScreenConfiguration. If enabled the review screen is opened after each addition of a new page.
    • Added property showLastPageWhenAdding to SBSDKUI2ReviewScreenConfiguration. If enabled the review screen will be opened showing the last page.
  • MRZ Scanner:
    • Added support for non-ICAO conformant machine readable zones on US border crossing cards.
  • Vehicle Identification Number Scanner:
    • Introduced a new VIN RTU-UI v2 component, see SBSDKUI2VINScannerViewController.

  • Barcode Scanner:
    • Added NSCopying support to SBSDKBarcodeTrackedViewPolygonStyle and SBSDKBarcodeTrackedViewTextStyle.
    • SBSDKBoardingPassBarcodeDocumentParser now supports up to version 8 of the IATA-BCBP standard.
    • vCard document parser was improved.
  • Check Scanner:
    • If image cropping is enabled and is successful, check recognition is performed on the crop instead of the original image.
  • Credit Card Scanner:
    • Added support for credit cards with an expiry date above the card number.
    • Added support for credit cards with a name written in two lines.
  • Document Data Extractor:
    • General speed improvements.
    • Now detects whether a document is in focus already and only starts the heavy recognition pipeline when the image quality is suitable.
    • Classification for documents with MRZ is more stable.
    • Added normalization before date recognition.
    • More consistent usage of common field types.
    • Improved maiden name processing for DePassport and DeIdCard.
    • Now also supports the new German ID card format issued starting 2024.
  • Document Quality Analyzer:
    • Improved performance. Note: document quality scores may slightly change for the same input images when compared to the previous version of the DoQA.
  • Document Scanner:
    • Improved landscape-orientation layout of RTU-UIv2 screens.
    • Increased performance for Document Scanner algorithms.
    • The zoomed page view in the RTU-UIv2 review screen now closes when you finish zooming while being below the minimum zoom value.
  • Medical Certificate Scanner:
    • Date recognition in Medical Certificate forms is now based on the Scanbot OCR Engine and shows significant quality improvements.
  • MRZ Scanner:
    • On US border crossing permits, the document number is now returned in the correct field.
