  • Removed unused hash functions

8.0.0

Pdf417Mobi v8 Release Announcement

As of this version, BlinkInput SDK is fully compatible with other Microblink SDKs, which means that you can use it with other Microblink SDKs in the same application.

New features:

  • We have full support for Apple Silicon!

Cocapods support change:

  • We are updating our Cocoapods with .xcframework format from now on. Please download Cocoapods 1.10.0 or newer to use our SDK.

Major API changes:

  • To ensure compatibilty with other Microblink SDKs, we have reprefixed all classes. All classes have MBB prefix instead of MB
  • We have renamed framework from Microblink to Pdf417Mobi

Minor API changes:

  • We've replaced Using time-limited license! warning with Using trial license! warning. The warning message is displayed when using a trial license key.
  • We've deprecated MBPdf417Recognizer — use MBBBarcodeRecognizer instead.

7.3.0

New features:

  • Introducing support for new framework format - XCFramework:
    • it contains all the necessary device and simulator architecture slices
    • no neeed to remove simulator slices before distributing your app to the App Store as described here
    • for now, only available from this repo, not available on Cocoapods
  • We have translated complete SDK to following languages: Croatian, Czech, English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Slovak, Spanish, Malay, Dutch, Hungarian, Indonesian, Arabic(UAE), Romanian, Chinese traditional, Chinese simplified, Thai, Hewbrew and Vietnamese
  • We added disableMicroblinkLogging method to MBLogger for easier implementation
    • This also enables disabling Microblink logging in Swift

iOS version support change:

  • From now on, we are not supporting iOS 8 version.

Major API change:

  • We added errorCallback on MBMicroblinkSDK methods which needs to be implemented for properly setting up the license key.

Minor API changes:

  • Methods pauseScanning and resumeScanningAndResetState in MBRecognizerRunnerViewController do not return anymore BOOL
    • use isScanningPaused to check if scanning is paused
  • We renamed MBRecogitionMode to MBRecognitionDebugMode in MBRecognizerCollection
  • Swift:
    • We renamed all sharedInstance to shared
    • All enums are now Int
    • All unsigned integers are now Int

Bugfixes:

  • Fixed issue where recognizer's result state would not be the same as recognizer's runner state after finished scanning
  • Fixed issue when pressing immediately close button on overlay view controllers would freeze for couple of seconds SDK
  • Fixed memory leaks that could cause crashes in some cases
  • Fixed Torch activation for all iOS versions
  • We removed OpenGL entirely which was causing unexpected crashes
  • Large memory consumption introduced is due to 4K video session on all 4K eligible iPhones; we introduced new camera presets 1080p and 4K, so to reduce your app memory consumption set camera preset on 1080p or 720p
  • We added a nullable attribute to the recognizerRunnerViewControllerWithOverlayViewController to fix a force unwrapping issue in Swift that could occur if the camera is broken or not working
  • We fixed race conditions and camera asserts that could sometimes cause crashes

7.2.0

  • Updates and additions

    • enabled capturing high resolution camera frames: When custom UI integration is performed, use - (void)captureHighResImage:(MBCaptureHighResImage)highResoulutionImageCaptured on MBRecognizerRunnerViewController When using provided scan overlay view controllers, high resolution full camera frames taken at the moment of successful scan are returned if this option is enabled through MBOverlaySettings.
    • switched to using HTTPS in podspec for Cocoapods

  • Bug fixes

    • fixed bug where SDK crashed with exception when the user wanted to use custom resource bundle
    • updated overlay view controllers for iPhone X Series
    • fix memory issue while using current frame grabber
    • fixed a crash which happened when scanning region was set before overlay view controller loaded, but after it was initialized
    • fixed missing init in MBDotsResultSubview for Swift

  • Minor API changes

    • isScanningUnsupportedForCameraType: is now class method of MBMicroblinkSDK
    • partialRecognitionTimeout in MBRecognizerCollection default value has been changed to 0 which means no timeout will be reported in which partial scanning results will be returned to the user

7.1.0

  • Bug fixes

    • fixed crash when changing recognizers on the fly

  • Minor API changes

    • removed uiSettings property from MBBarcodeOverlaySettings and it no longer has recognizerCollection property
    • MBBarcodeOverlayViewController has new init which has (MBRecognizerCollection *)recognizerCollection as parameter and andDelegate parameter has been renamed to delegate
    • MBOverlayViewControllerInterface has been removed; when creating custom overlay view controller, MBCustomOverlayViewController has to be inherited
      • please check our updated Samples
    • MBBarcodeOverlayViewControllerDelegate methods has been renamed to barcodeOverlayViewControllerDidFinishScanning and barcodeOverlayViewControllerDidTapClose

7.0.0

  • new API, which is not backward compatible. Please check README and updated demo applications for more information, but the gist of it is:
    • PPScanningViewController has been renamed to MBRecognizerRunnerViewController and MBCoordinator to MBRecognizerRunner
    • PPBarcodeOverlayViewController has been renamed to MBBarcodeOverlayViewController
    • previously internal MBRecognizer objects are not internal anymore - instead of having opaque MBRecognizerSettings and MBRecognizerResult objects, you now have stateful MBRecognizer object that contains its MBResult within and mutates it while performing recognition. For more information, see README and updated demo applications
  • new licence format, which is not backward compatible. Full details are given in README and in updated applications, but the gist of it is:
    • licence can now be provided with either file, byte array or base64-encoded bytes

5.1.2

  • Updates and additions

    • Added Barcode Recognizer PPBarcodeRecognizerResult and PPBarcodeRecognizerSettings
    • Deprecated PPBarDecoderRecognizerResult and PPBarDecoderRecognizerSettings. Use Barcode Recognizer
    • Deprecated PPZXingRecognizerResult and PPZXingRecognizerSettings. Use Barcode Recognize

  • Bug fixes

    • fixed crash in QR code which happened periodically in all recognizers
    • fixed crash in Aztec reader
    • MicroBlink executable is removed in Resources bundle
    • fixed scanning when using PDF417 and USDL at the same time

  • Minor API changes

    • removed option to scan 1D Code39 and Code128 barcodes on US Driver's licenses that contain those barcodes alongside PDF417 barcode

  • Improvements for existing features

    • improved USDLRecognizer - added support for new USDL standard
    • CFBundleShortVersionString is now updated with each release

5.1.1

  • Bugfixes:
    • Fixed PPBarcodeRecognizerResult's barcodeType property

5.1.0

  • Updates and additions:

    • Microblink.framework is now a dynamic framework. The change is introduced because of the following reasons:

      • isolation of code
      • better interop with third party libraries

    • Improved Screen shown when Camera permission is not granted:

      • fixed crash which happened on tap anywhere on screen
      • close button can now be removed (for example, if the scanning screen is inside UINavigationController instance)
      • Header is now public so you can instantiate that class if needed

    • Updated PPUiSettings with new features:

      • flag showStatusBar which you can use to show or hide status bar on camera screen
      • flag showCloseButton which you can use to show or hide close button on camera screen. By default it's presented, but when inside UINavigationController it should be hidden
      • flat showTorchButton which you can use to show or hide torch button on camera screen.

    • Renamed internal extension method with namespace so that they don't interfere with third party libraries

    • Added standard tap to focus overlay subview in all default OverlayViewControllers. Also added it as a public header.

    • PPScanningViewController now has a simple method to turn on torch

    • added play success sound method to PPScanningViewController protocol

    • Added feature to enable frame quality estimation when using Direct API (by exposing property estimateFrameQuality)

    • Internal switch to new build system using cmake. This allows faster deployments and easier updates in the future

    • Deprecated PPHelpDisplayMode. It still works, but ideally, you should replace it with a custom logic for presenting help inside the application using the SDK.

    • PPAztecRecognizerResult and PPAztecRecognizerSettings are now deprecated. Use PPBarcodeRecognizerResult and PPBarcodeRecognizerSettings

    • PPBarDecoderRecognizerResult and PPBarDecoderRecognizerSettings are now deprecated. Use PPBarcodeRecognizerResult and PPBarcodeRecognizerSettings

    • PPZXingRecognizerResult and PPZXingRecognizerSettings are now deprecated. Use PPBarcodeRecognizerResult and PPBarcodeRecognizerSettings

  • Bugfixes:

    • Fixed bug which caused didOutputResults: not to get called in DirectAPI Fixed case sensitivity in class & file naming
    • Fixed issue which sometimes caused scanning not to be started when the user is asked for camera permission (first run of the app)
    • Fixed rare crash which Camera paused label UI being updated on background thread
    • Fixed incorrect handling of camera mirror when using front facing camera
    • Fixed crash which sometimes happened when presenting help screens (if PPHelpDisplayModeAlways or PPHelpDisplayModeFirstRun were used)
    • Fixed issue with blurred camera display when PPCoordinator instance was reused between consecutive scanning sessions
    • Fixed crashed which happened when multiple instances of PPCoordinator were used simultaneously (one being terminated and one starting recognition). This most commonly happened when after scanning session, a new view controller was pushed to a Navigation View Controller, when the user repeated the procedure a number of times (five or more).
    • Fixed nullability annotations in result classes. Now, wherever the nilvalue is allowed, it means no data exists on the scanned document. If an empty string @"" is returned, this means the field exist, but it's empty.
    • Fixed an issue which caused camera settings to be reset each time PPCoordinator's applySettings method was called.
    • Fixed crash on start in swift if custom UI was used to handle detector results
    • Fixed crash when the user tapped anywhere on the view controller presented when camera permission wasn't allowed
    • Fixed Torch button on default camera overlays. Previously it never changed state after it was turned on.
    • Fixed crash when Single dispatch queue was used for processing
    • Fixed issue with Direct API which disabled processing
    • Fixed internal bug which caused crashes if PPCoordinator applySettings was called with the same Recognizer settings (this is a very rare use case)
    • Fixed Czech translation
    • Fixed Czech QR Code amount scanning - improved parsing of amounts with less than 2 decimals

  • Improvements in PhotoPay scanning:

    • Improved reading of pdf417 barcodes having width:height bar aspect ratio less than 2:1

  • Changes in Samples:

    • Added libz to all samples to prevent linker errors (caused by slimming down the SDK)
    • Samples updated to use new dynamic framework
    • Added a build phase in each sample which removes unused architectures from the dynamic framework

5.0.5

  • US Driver's Licence:
    • fixed parsing of Virgin Islands DL
    • added support for Arkansas DL
    • added support for new South Carolina DL

5.0.4

  • iOS fixes:
    • Fixed some issues related to internal camera management

5.0.3

  • iOS fixes:
    • Fixed problems with string localizations

5.0.2

  • iOS fixes:
    • CFBundleSUpportedPlatforms removed from Info.plist files
    • Applying affine transformation to PPQuadrangle now correctly assigns points.
    • When using both Direct API and PPCameraCoordinator, scanning results will now be correctly outputted to PPCoordinatorDelegate and PPScanningDelegate respectively
    • Fixed crashes related to camera permissions and added dummy view when camera permission is disabled
    • Fixed issues related to topLayoutGuide on iOS6

5.0.1

  • iOS updates:

    • Added option to mirror input images to PPCameraSettings

  • iOS bugfixes:

    • ITF reader now accepts barcode sizes ranging between [6,50]

5.0.0

  • iOS updates:

    • Implemented PPCameraCoordinator. PPCameraCoordinator assumes the role of PPCoordinator from previous versions while new PPCoordinator is used for Direct API (image processing without camera out management).
    • Increased speed of scanning for barcode type recognizers.
    • Implemented PPImage. When using Direct API you can wrap UIImage and CMSampleBufferRef into PPImage to ensure optimal performance.
    • Improved performance of Direct API. In addition, you can now use Direct API with your own camera management without any performance drawbacks.
    • Added method isCameraPaused to PPScanningViewController.
    • Added option to fllip input images upside down for processing with cameraFlipped property of PPCameraSettings.
    • Implemented PPViewControllerFactory for managing creation of PPScanningViewController objects.
    • PPImageMetadata now contains PPImageMetadataType property, which describes which image type was outputted.

  • iOS bugfixes:

    • New Direct API fixed possible deadlocks when sending large amounts of data

4.3.0

  • Added better integration for Swift

      - Added Nullability Attributes
  - Added modulemap file
  - Added sample app in Swift

  • Refactored PPMetadataSettings

      - Added debug metadata settings for debugging payslip detection and image processing
  - `successfulScanFrame` renamed to `successfulFrame`
  - `currentVideoFrame` renamed to `currentFrame`

  • Exposed PPModernViewfinderOverlaySubview overlay subview class in public headers. This enables you to more easily recreate default overlay UI in your custom Overlay view controllers.

  • in PPCoordinator, renamed method isScanningUnsupported: to isScanningUnsupportedForCameraType:error:. This was introduced to provide more granularity in checking if scanning is supported.

  • PPOverlayViewControllerchanged the way Overlay Subviews are added to the view hierarchy. Instead of calling addOverlaySubview: (which automatically added a view to view hierarachy), you now need to call registerOverlaySubview: (which registers subview for scanning events), and manually add subview to view hierarchy using addSubview: method. This change gives you more flexibility for adding views and managing autolayout and autoresizing masks.

  • Localization Macros MB_LOCALIZED and MB_LOCALIZED_FORMAT can now be overriden in your app to provide completely custom localization mechanisms.

  • Increased speed of scanning cancellation when Cancel button is pressed.

4.2.2

  • Fixed several issues in USDL parsing - implemented special cases for barcodes which don't have keys according to the AAMVA version written in the barcode - implemented heuristics for extraction of firstName, middleName, lastName, address, and other fields, if they can be determined based on the other fields.

  • Bugfixes and tweaks in camera management code - fixed potential deadlock when multiple instances of PPCoordinator objects are instantiated. - exiting from the scanning when user presses "cancel" button is now faster - fixed race condition which potentially crashed the scanner when user exited and entered camera screen consecutively very fast.

4.2.1

  • Added new callback method to PPScanDelegate which is called when license key is invalid: scanningViewController:invalidLicenseKeyWithError:

4.2.0

  • Added bitcode support for Xcode 7

  • Updated USDL parsing. Added better handling of FullName, FullAddress, Height and Weight of cardholder. Added full support for Magnetic PDF417 standard.

  • Small performance improvements in iOS camera management.

4.1.1

  • Added special case for scanning some British Columbia DLs
  • Stability improvements in USDL scanning

4.1.0

  • Improved video frame quality detection: now only the sharpest and the most focused frames are being processed. This improves quality of the results, but at a slight expense of processing time

  • Frame quality estimation can now be enabled using PPScanSettings frameQualityEstimationMode property:

    • when set to PPFrameQualityEstimationModeOn, frame quality estimation is always enabled
    • when set to PPFrameQualityEstimationModeOff, frame quality estimation is always disabled
    • when set to PPFrameQualityEstimationModeDefault, frame quality estimation is enabled internally, if the SDK determines it makes sense

  • iOS 9 introduced new app multitasking features Split View and Slide Over. When the scanner is on screen and one of those features are used, iOS automatically pauses the Camera (this behaviour is default as of iOS 9 beta 5). This SDK version introduces new setting in PPUISettings class, called cameraPausedView, where you can define the UIView which is presented centered on screen when this happens.

  • Known issue on iOS 9: if you use Autorotate overlay feature (settings.uiSetttings.autorotateOverlay), present PPScanningViewController as a modal view controller, and support Split View iOS 9 feature, then autorotation of camera overlays isn't correct. The best way is to opt-out of Split View feature, and wait for SDK fix when iOS 9 comes out of beta.

  • PPScanningViewController methods pauseScanning, isScanningPaused, and resumeScanningAndResetState: should now be called only from Main thread, and they are effective immediately. E.g., if pauseScanning is called and there is a video frame being processed, result of processing of that frame will be discarded, if resumeScanningAndResetState: isn't called in the meantime.

  • Re-introduced property locationOnImage for PPPdf417RecognizerResult objects, which existed prior to v4.0.0. It's now a PPQuadrangle object, with clear properties for obtaining corner points of the barcode on the image.

4.0.2

  • Added support for PPCameraPresetPhoto camera preset. Use this if you need the same zoom level as in iOS Camera app. The resolution for video feed when using this preset is the same as devices screen resolution.

4.0.1

  • Added support for several new special cases of US Driver Licenses in USDL recognizer.

  • Exposed two new properties in PPUsdlRecognizerSettings

    • scanUncertain

      • Set this to YES to scan even barcode not compliant with standards
      • Use only if necessary because it slows down the recognition process
      • Default: NO

    • allowNullQuietZone

      • set this to YES to scan barcodes which don't have quiet zone (white area) around it
      • slightly slows down recognition process
      • Default: YES

  • Disabled Bitcode in Sample apps so that they are buildable with XCode 7 (Bitcode support in the framework coming soon!)

  • Added library dependencies in podspec without which the app after integration couldn't be built

4.0.0

  • Series of bugfixes, performance improvements and API consolidation.

  • API now compatible with other MicroBlink products.

  • Naming changes in API (see Transition guide)

    • PPBaseResult renamed to PPRecognizerResult

    • PPScanningResult is now replaced with 4 different result classes, depending on where the result comes from

      • PPUsdlRecognizerResult for USDL scanning
      • PPPdf417RecognizerResult for PDF417 scanning
      • PPBarDecoderRecognizerResult for Code39 and Code128 scanning
      • PPZXingRecognizerResult for other barcode formats

  • PPScanningViewController's methods resumeScanning and resumeScanningWithoutStateReset merged into one resumeScanningAndResetState:.

    • All calls to resumeScanning replace with resumeScanningAndResetState:YES.
    • All calls to resumeScanningWithoutStateReset replace with resumeScanningAndResetState:NO

  • Added direct processing API which you can use to perform OCR on UIImage objects.

  • Added NoCamera-sample project which shows how to use direct processing API

  • Added didOutputMetadata: callback method to PPOverlayViewControllers

  • This version uses a new license key format. If you had a license key generated prior to v4.0.0, contact us so we can regenerate the license key for you.

  • Each PPRecognizerResult now has implemented description method for easier debugging

  • Fixed orientation handling for case when overlay autorotates.

  • Scanning region is now a property of Scanning view controller, and overlay view controller now delegates to this property.

  • PPBarcodeElementType changed names: From PPTextElement to PPBarcodeElementTypeText From PPByteElement to PPBarcodeElementTypeByte

3.2.0

  • Improvements in USDL parsing

3.1.5

  • Workaround for random crashes when scanning uncertain barcodes

3.1.4

  • Fixed a rare issue with decoding of pdf417 barcodes (when barcode last element was of type byte)

3.1.3

  • Fixed issue with callback cameraViewController:didMakeSuccessfulScanOnImage: not being called

3.1.2

  • USDL License error message which was always displayed is now fixed

3.1.1

  • Bugfixes
  • More internal header files are now part of the API. This makes creation of custom UI easier.

3.1.0

  • Fixed crashing on some iOS8 devices caused by AVFoundation video callback change

  • Added scanning and data extracting of US Drivers licenses. To scan USDL, use the following initialization setting:

     // Set YES/NO for scanning US drivers license barcode standards (default YES, if available by license)
 [coordinatorSettings setValue:@(NO) forKey:kPPRecognizeUSDLKey];

  • USDL results are returned as PPUSDLResult object. See a separate document DriversLicenses for information how to obtain data from USDL barcodes.

3.0.1

  • Each PPBaseResult object now has attached information about it's location on processed video frame.
  • Demo app updated to draw result position on image which resulted with successful scan

3.0.0

  • Removed status bar properties from PPScanningViewController protocol. Replaced with preferredStatusBarStyle and prefersStatusBarHidden in PPOverlayViewController
  • kPPHudOrientation replaced with kPPOverlayShouldAutorotate.
    • HUD orientation is now determined optimally inside pdf417 library
    • Autorotation can now be explicitly disallowed, e.g when presenting camera on UINavigationController or when presenting as FormSheet or PageSheet
  • Removed deprecated methods from PPOverlayViewController
  • Fixed crash when Overlay those orientations which are not supported by the app. Now overlay works in that situations.
  • Completely refactored "Complex Overlay" sample. Basically, it's open sourced implementation of internal pdf417 overlay.
  • Fix for M/F values in Sex field. Now that value is standardized to 1 (male) and 2 (female)
  • Workarounds for crash with nonstandard FullName data and in internal parseSubfile method

2.6.1

  • Added support for Photo camera preset
  • Added option to automatically detect scale of the barcode on the image. This makes sense only when Photo preset is used.
  • Added option to customize the status bar on camera screen
  • Fixed "private selectors" issue which appears when publishing the app to app store
  • Added a callback for obtaining the image which resulted with successful scan: cameraViewController:didMakeSuccessfulScanOnImage:
  • Changes to API method for retrieving scanning results:
  • USDL api modified so that all date fields are in format MMDDYYYY

instead of using

- (void)cameraViewController:(id<PPScanningViewController>)cameraViewController
              obtainedResult:(PPScanningResult*)result

Use:

- (void)cameraViewController:(UIViewController<PPScanningViewController>*)cameraViewController
        	didOutputResults:(NSArray*)results;

New method adds an additional layers of abstraction to result obtaining. It makes possible several new features, most importantly, returning more than one recognition result, and returning results other than payslip scanning results (for example, pure OCR or barcode scanning results).

Objects passed in NSArray* results are always of type PPBaseResult. PPScanningResult (object passed in the all callback method) is now a subclass of PPBaseResult.

How to implement the new API?

  1. Rename cameraViewController:didFinishWithResult to, i.e. processScanningResult

  2. Implement cameraViewController:didOutputResults. Commonly, it can be implemented in the following way:

     - (void)cameraViewController:(UIViewController<PPScanningViewController> *)cameraViewController
     		didOutputResults:(NSArray *)results {
 	[results enumerateObjectsUsingBlock:^(id obj, NSUInteger idx, BOOL *stop) {
 		if ([obj isKindOfClass:[PPBaseResult class]]) {
     		PPBaseResult* result = (PPBaseResult*)obj;
     		if ([result resultType] == PPBaseResultTypeBarcode && [result isKindOfClass:[PPScanningResult class]]) {
         		PPScanningResult* scanningResult = (PPScanningResult*)result;
         		[self processScanningResult:scanningResult cameraViewController:cameraViewController];
     		}
    			if ([result resultType] == PPBaseResultTypeUSDL && [result isKindOfClass:[PPUSDLResult class]]) {
         		PPUSDLResult* usdlResult = (PPUSDLResult*)result;
         		[self processUSDLResult:usdlResult cameraViewController:cameraViewController];
     		}
 		}
 	}];
 }

  3. Test to see if it works.
