Upcoming API changes

In our next release in January 2024 we are going to publish major update to our QualitySettings API.

QualitySettings API upcoming changes:

New types:

• XDimensionMode (Auto/Small/Normal/Large/UseMinimalXDimension),
• BarcodeQualityMode (High/Normal/Low),
• DeconvolutionMode (Fast/Normal/Slow),
• InverseImageMode (Auto/Disabled/Enabled),
• ComplexBackgroundMode (Auto/Disabled/Enabled).

New QualitySettings API memebers:

• XDimension - Recognition mode which sets size (from 1 to infinity) of barcode minimal element: matrix cell or bar.
• MinimalXDimension - Minimal size of XDimension in pixels which is used with UseMinimalXDimension.
• BarcodeQuality - Mode which enables methods to recognize barcode elements with the selected quality. Barcode element with lower quality requires more hard methods which slows the recognition.
• Deconvolution - Deconvolution (image restorations) mode which defines level of image degradation.
• InverseImage - Mode which enables or disables additional recognition of barcodes on images with inverted colors (luminance).
• ComplexBackground - Mode which enables or disables additional recognition of color barcodes on color images.

Quality presets:

• HighPerformance - HighPerformance recognition quality preset. High quality barcodes are recognized well in this mode.
• NormalQuality - NormalQuality recognition quality preset. Suitable for the most of barcodes.
• HighQuality - HighQuality recognition quality preset. This preset is developed for low quality barcodes. Allows to detect highly damaged barcodes.
• MaxQuality - MaxQuality recognition quality preset. This preset is developed to recognize all possible barcodes, even incorrect barcodes.
