1.2.0 - 2021/09/10

Breaking changes

• Changed all onBeforeWebcam events to onBeforeLiveness.

Changes & additions

• Inverted the video feed when a frontal camera is being used in order to improve the alignment process.

• Added typings for Typescript. These can be found under the src folder.

• The library no longer requires sybrin.biometrics.css to be included and referenced separately for default component styling to take effect. You may still apply overrides using your own stylesheet by referencing a custom .css file after the library.

• Added a read-only mode to the passive component which disables all events.

• Added an option to set request headers for asset retrieval requests.

Bug fixes

• Fixed a bug where an error occurred if the SDK was included multiple times.

1.1.0 - 2021/08/20

Changes & additions

• Added blur detection as well as a configuration option to set the blur threshold.

• Added lighting detection as well as configuration options to set values and thresholds to use when checking for image overexposure or underexposure.

• Added facial distance detection as well a configuration option to set the distance threshold.

• Removed hold delay before image is taken as new quality detection negates the need for it. With this, also removed holdDelay, messageHold and messageAbort configuration options as they are no longer used.

• Added version info retrieval functionality.

• Added client info retrieval functionality.

• Added instructions page to the passive component in order to pre-emptively give the user some guidelines on how to ensure a viable selfie.

• Added localization options to passive component initialization for changing guideline instruction texts.

• Added useModal configuration option to the passive component which enables launching the video feed in a modal.

• Added a spinner that appears when a selfie is being processed during passive liveness detection.

• Slightly tweaked the face bounding box borders to fit better vertically.

• Updated the demo application to make use of the newly added client info retrieval functionality and initialize the passive component to use the newly added modal functionality only when the client environment is not mobile.

Bug fixes

• Ensured that the video stream always closes when the passive component is destroyed.
