  • Kotlin version requirements lowered to 1.7.21.

  • Improved the on-device models.

  • For some phone models, fixed the fatal device error.

  • The hint text width can now exceed the frame width (when using the main camera).

  • All exceptions are moved to the com.ozforensics.liveness.sdk.core.exceptions package (See changes below).

  • Classes related to AnalysisRequest are moved to the com.ozforensics.liveness.sdk.analysispackage (See changes below).

implementation 'com.ozforensics.liveness:full:7.0.0'
implementation 'com.ozforensics.liveness:sdk:7.0.0'
  • UICustomization has been implemented instead of OzCustomization.

  • Published the on-device module for on-device liveness and biometry analyses. To add this module to your project, use:

    implementation 'com.ozforensics.liveness:on-device:6.3.4'

To launch these analyses, use runOnDeviceBiometryAnalysis and runOnDeviceLivenessAnalysis methods from the OzLivenessSDK class:

val mediaList: List<OzAbstractMedia> = ...
val biometryAnalysisResult: OzAnalysisResult = OzLivenessSDK.runOnDeviceBiometryAnalysis(mediaList)
val livenessAnalysisResult: OzAnalysisResult = OzLivenessSDK.runOnDeviceLivenessAnalysis(mediaList)
