Version 0.33.3

Firmware 5.7.0.301 or newer require a license for facial recognition and spoofing features to work.
DO NOT upgrade to this new firmware unless you have a license. See more details in the readme.md.

• New firmware release - version 5.7.0.301
  • Face authentication and Anti-Spoofing algorithm enhancement.
  • Support 3 level of security via Settings Menu and Firmware API
  • Boot Behavior:
    • The device now always starts in Face-Detection mode upon boot, regardless of the previously set operation mode.
    • The device now always starts in Low security level upon boot, regardless of the previously set operation mode.
  • A reduction of storage on the device from 1,000 to 500 users.
  • Preview now shows right sensor and sends right sensor snapshots to Host.
  • Bug fixes.
• New host library version 0.33.3:
  • Removed standby support.
  • Improved images dump functionality.
  • Improved support for detection of SKU version of the device.
  • Host now tries to acquire license from a license server upon FW request. See details in the readme.md.
  • Setting Menu simplified.
  • Viewer display of device serial number in the status bar and in sn.txt file.
  • Improved handling and logging of session start errors.
  • Cleaned cmake usage of 3rd party libraries.
  • Added more logging to the app (authenticate duration).

Important Notes:

• Device Configuration: It is recommended to call SetDeviceConfig(..) in your application before calling Authenticate() to ensure the device is in the desired operation mode (this will be less crucial in the next firmware version, as the operation mode will be persisted and remain in effect even after a reboot).

• Authentication Check: Ensure that your code checks that user_id is not empty to determine whether authentication has occurred. This is important to differentiate between mere face detection or spoof detection and successful authentication.

Firmware 5.7.0.301 or newer require a license for facial recognition and spoofing features to work.
DO NOT upgrade to this new firmware unless you have a license. See more details in the readme.md.
