7.0.0-RC10

• 🎉 New:

  • Added a new property configuration in SBSDKBarcodeScanner, SBSDKBarcodeScannerViewController, and SBSDKBarcodeScanAndCountViewController.
  • Added a new class SBSDKBarcodeItem to replace SBSDKBarcodeScannerResult.
  • Added a new property item in SBSDKBarcodeScannerAccumulatingResult to replace code.
  • Added new barcode types pharmaCode, pharmaCodeTwoTrack, pzn.
  • Added a new property acceptedFormats to SBSDKBarcodeDocumentParser.
  • Added a new initializer init(acceptedFormats:) to SBSDKBarcodeDocumentParser.
  • Added a new method detectBarcodesOnFrame: in SBSDKBarcodeScanner.
  • Added a new initializer initWithFormats:live:acceptedDocumentFormats: in SBSDKBarcodeScanner.
  • Added a new class SBSDKUIBarcodeAdditionalParameters.
  • Added a new class SBSDKImageRef.
  • Added a new class SBSDKBarcodeFormats.
  • Added a new class SBSDKBarcodeFormatCommonConfiguration.
  • Added a new property dateOfLastDetection to SBSDKBarcodeScannerAccumulatingResult.
  • Added a new protocol SBSDKAdditionalFrameProcessing to allow additional frame processing before they are passed to the main scanner.
  • Added a new optional variable additionalFrameProcessor to SBSDKBaseScannerViewController.
  • Added a new SBSDKBarcodeScannerEngineMode called nextGenAr which is optimized for detecting multiple barcodes in live mode. In particular, bounding boxes of one-d barcodes are predicted as close as possible.
  • Added support of the health industry barcode document hibc as a barcode document format in SBSDKBarcodeDocumentFormat.

• 🚀 Improvements:

  • More robust QR code recognition, more tolerance for destroyed or missing timing patterns and alignment patterns and a better performance on artistic QR codes.
  • QR codes with non-square finder patterns and QR codes embedded in adversarial backgrounds (flow codes and more generally) can now be recognized.
  • Improved the false positive rate for ITF.
  • Improved quiet zone checks for the barcode formats ITF, CODE_11, MSI_PLESSEY, IATA_2_OF_5, INDUSTRIAL_2_OF_5, CODE_25.
  • Introduced a new engine mode nextGenLowPowerAr in SBSDKBarcodeScannerEngineMode that is optimized for scanning barcode batches on low-power devices.
  • Improved barcode detection for various barcode types.
  • Improved the overall recall on our internal synthetic dataset for four state postal barcodes (i.e. australiaPost, japanPost, royalMail, royalTntPost, uspsIntelligentMail) from 47% to 56%.
  • Improved our barcode scanner with a significant speed-up in live mode on very large input resolutions.
  • Introduced a boolean strictMode for certain barcode configurators. If this mode is disabled, it should allow for a higher detection rate in difficult scenarios, but with the possibility that false positive results may occur. Currently, we support strictMode for qrCode, microQrCode, rmqrCode, pdf417, microPdf417, and gs1Composite.

• 🐞 Bug fixes:

  • Fixed a bug in SBSDKBarcodeScannerViewController that could lead to a crash when embedded within a UIViewControllerRepresentable.
  • Fixed a bug in SBSDKBarcodeScanAndCountViewController where the scanner will be stuck if there is no barcode detected.
  • Fixed a UI bug in SBSDKUI2BarcodeScannerViewController where the sheet button overlapped with the action bar.
  • Fixed a bug in SBSDKUI2BarcodeScannerViewController where the flip camera button was not resetting the widest camera available if chosen.
  • Fixed returned results for all types of SBSDKUpcEanExtensionBehavior.
  • Fixed checksum for SBSDKBarcodeFormat.code39.
